AttachmentExtractor for Microsoft Dynamics 365 & Power Platform

AttachmentExtractor

for Microsoft Dynamics 365 & Power Apps

Every company faces a common challenge - e-mail attachments consume significant amounts of file storage, leading to expensive purchases of Capacity Add-Ons and difficulty in locating attachments.

AttachmentExtractor offers a cost-effective solution by automatically extracting e-mail & note attachments to inexpensive storage platforms like SharePoint or Azure Blob, without affecting the user experience. This saves up to 80% on file capacity costs and improves the overall performance.

Cost saving capacity management



1

Move e-mails and files to SharePoint or Azure Blob

Did you know that a significant amount of your Dataverse database, sometimes as much as 70%, is made up of e-mail content and attachments stored as notes?

AttachmentExtractor provides a simple solution to this problem by moving the content to SharePoint or Azure Blob Storage, freeing up valuable space in your Dataverse database. This process is completely seamless and users will not notice a difference when accessing their files.

SharePoint integration

Completely integrated with SharePoint, our tool automatically extracts attachments and notes from emails and saves them to the correct document location. If the location does not exist, it will create it for you.

Azure Blob Storage

AttachmentExtractor supports Azure Blob Storage (ABS) for storing large amounts of documents as well as email content. Both the Hot and Cold tiers of ABS can be used.

Unchanged user experience

The extraction process is fully transparent. Thus, users will not notice any differences when accessing the extracted content.

Smart filters

Large files are prioritized for movement by smart file size logic, resulting in faster extraction and immediate capacity savings.

Scheduler

Set up a schedule for the service to be active. For example: extract only in the weekend or extract only from midnight to 5am in the morning to avoid any impact during work hours.

Blacklist/Whitelist

Set up the service to touch only emails related to certain tables (Whitelist) or block them from being touched by the service (Blacklist). For example: "Do not extract important contracts".

Archiving

AttachmentExtractor allows you to move historic content to an archive by configuring the extraction to only act against content that is older than for example 2 years.

Dynamic save locations

By allowing selection of save locations based on Dynamics 365 attribute values, custom logic can be implemented to meet your specific needs.

Dynamic filters

Eliminate unnecessary items using an attachment filter based on size or name (e.g. exclude Twitter gifs).

Indexation and search features

Contents, including attachments, emails, and notes, can be replicated for indexing purposes.

Replication of sensitive documents

The whitelist allows for selective extraction or copying of documents associated with an invoice, for example.

Great for optimizing your attachment related storage costs. We have used this for moving DocumentsCorePack-generated customer pdf-invoices from Dataverse to Azure Blob Storage. Highly recommend this. Also, service from msrcm-addons.com has always been superb.
