Email It In

Email files to SharePoint

Give your team one email address that files attachments into a SharePoint document library. Suppliers, scanners and colleagues email it, and the files are in the library everyone already works from, within seconds.

Sign in with SharePoint

Paid plans start at $5 a month for 200 files a month, with no email size limit. To try it out, the free plan takes up to 20 files a month, in emails up to 5 MB.

How to set it up

  1. Sign in with SharePoint

    Use your Microsoft 365 work account. Email It In asks Microsoft for access to the SharePoint sites you can open.

  2. Choose the library

    In Settings, pick a site, then a document library, then a folder in it, or the top of the library.

  3. Give out the address

    Give it to suppliers, set it on the office scanner, or forward to it yourself. Each attachment lands in the library under its own name.

When your IT team has to approve it

Many organisations only let staff connect apps their Microsoft 365 admin has approved. If Microsoft asks for approval, Email It In shows you a link to send to your admin. One click from them approves it for everyone in the organisation, and you connect again.

Email It In files with your own SharePoint permissions: it can only use sites and libraries you can open yourself.

Folders inside the library

Every attachment goes into the folder you chose. Inside it, a paid plan can sort further:

Questions about SharePoint

Does it work with a personal Microsoft account?

No. SharePoint comes with Microsoft 365 work and school accounts. With a personal account (Outlook.com, Hotmail), Email It In files into your OneDrive instead.

Microsoft says my admin must approve Email It In. What now?

Your organisation only allows apps an admin has approved. Email It In shows a link for your admin; after they approve, sign in again and choose your library. If you are the admin, open the link yourself.

Which sites and libraries can I choose?

Any site and document library you can open in SharePoint yourself. If a site is missing from the list, search for its name, or paste the site's address.

What happens with two files of the same name?

By default SharePoint keeps both and gives the new file a number. On a paid plan you can choose to replace the old file instead.

Can I send large files?

Yes, on a paid plan: there is no size limit, and large files are uploaded to SharePoint in parts. The free plan takes up to 20 files a month, in emails up to 5 MB.
