We're trying to add a simple integration with Office365 to replace the traditional mailto functionality.

I recently discovered the method of using the outlook.office compose path to launch the clients Outlook Web App with the To, Subject and Body populated.

Thanks to this post (How to mailto to office 365?)

I'm however trying to figure out how to add an attachment.

Any ideas of how I can achieve this and I've tried the following:

I've tried including it as base64 in the body which didn't work.

https://outlook.office.com/?path=/mail/action/compose&to=service@domain.com&subject=Customer Service Request&body=Add+Your+Request+here

Desired outcome: - User clicks on an 'Email' link in our custom application - The link opens the users OWA composed email in a new tab/window with the subject line and body populated and an attachment added to the mail. - User send mail from OWA

Any help will be super helpful, thanks.

The format for outlook urls looks like this:

https://outlook.live.com/mail/0/deeplink/compose?subject=SUBJECT&body=BODY&to=email@example.com

For outlook try this,

https://outlook.live.com/mail/0/deeplink/compose?to=your@email.com

this should open up the outlook web mailer.
