Save the message as EMLIn supported Outlook versions, use the Save as or download option to create an .eml file. Classic Outlook may default to MSG instead.

Open Email to FigmaLaunch the plugin in the Figma file where you want the email to appear.

Upload the EML fileThe plugin interprets the saved email and recreates it as editable Figma content.

Classic Outlook users: MSG is different from EML.

Renaming a .msg file to .eml does not convert it. If your Outlook version only saves MSG, use a version or export method that produces EML before importing.
