Hi,

How can we attach an inbound email to a case that we are creating.
For example if ServiceNow is receiving an email I have inbound action to create a case based on it

I also want the same email to get attached to that case including the attachments it consists.
in simple i just want to attach same outlook file as an attachment along with the original email attachments if there is any.

@Ankur Bawiskar @Chuck Tomasi @Michael Ritchie  please help me on this

there is a way but it is not recommended we can attach .eml file to achieve this, but try to explain end users not to go with this approach
