How can I generate a link to a specific email?

this worked for me.

Flag the email.

Open > To Do list

Select the flagged email. On the right you will see a link to open the email. You can copy and paste this link.

I am looking to get the permalink for an email in Outlook. I used to use an app that had a permalink button that would copy the permalink. I am surprised Outlook has not done this yet!

The only solytion I have found to that problem is :

1. Choose the "Send to Onenote" option for the email you want.
2. Go to the new note that has been created in the Onenote. There, within the new note, you will see the "link to outlook" option.
3. Put your mouse on that link , press Ctrl +K and get the link you are looking for from the window that will open.
4. Then , optially , you can delete the note on the Onenote.

Thanks @MrjB_79 That "link to outlook" was exactly what I was looking for. It's a shame you can't get this directly from the Outlook app. Why go through the hassle of sending it to OneNote, copying the link, deleting the note, then pasting the link where you want it.
*facepalm*.

Thanks, that works! It does interact with Outlook online, but that works ok for me. Better than nothing.
