Please add this functionality. Opening .msg files in outlook without having to download them is essential.

Thank you for everyone who has been providing feedback on this thread. There is a variety of work happening to make it easier for people to save to/from OneDrive and SharePoint. There are no specifics and ETA’s to share at this point.

The Dev version of Edge based on Chromium doesn’t seem to allow drag and drop from Outlook. Can anyone else confirm?

Perhaps unhelpful for many of us, but if Mac is an option for you Safari supports drag/drop from Outlook to SharePoint.

Agreed - the ability to drag and drop attachments and/or the email itself into SharePoint with any browser would be very useful and it’s hard to believe this isn’t currently possible.
Please don’t limit any solution to attachments though. The email itself often provides important context to the attachment, in which case both are required.

Please add this functionality, either for browsers or as an Outlook add-in.
A related feature that would be useful is the ability to map email headers to SharePoint columns out of the box. That way, when an email is dragged from Outlook to SharePoint, the Sender, Recipient, Received Date etc can be populated in columns. The ‘created’ and ‘modified’ column value’s arent particularly helpful for email.
There are a number of third party products that can do this, but surely Microsoft is best placed to provide this much needed integration between its own products.

Unfortunately drag and drop via Edge doesn’t work with the modern SharePoint experience - only classic.

In modern pages, we open links within SharePoint in the same tab by default, and external links in a new tab. In the text web part, users can specify to open links in a new tab, but that isn’t the default behavior. Similarly, for navigation links, they follow the same rule (within SharePoint, same tab, external to SharePoint in a new tab). This is true of the modern web parts that support linking as well (hero, quick links, images, etc.) This is the pattern we’ve adopted for consistency.
After reviewing other areas of modern sites, like the site pages library, document libraries, lists, site contents, etc. we did find some different opening behaviors which we’ll review and resolve.
Can you help us understand if this pattern isn’t meeting your expectation, if we have some inconsistencies within modern pages we’ve missed, or if it’s the other areas of modern sites where…

Thanks for your suggestion. We’re evaluating technical options for this feature. No guarantees or timelines just yet – but this is something we think would be very useful.

Agreed - the Flow button should be available for search results. This is very frustrating!

The Approver and Date Approved should be captured as column metadata and preserved for the life of the document. This is a must have for document management.

Please consider adding this feature. The lack of native integration between SharePoint Online and Exchange Online (eg inability to drag/drop) has led to my organisation managing project and case file documents (Word/Excel etc) in SharePoint, while associated emails are managed ‘in place’ in Exchange using shared mailboxes.
For example, ‘Project A’ has a folder in SharePoint for project documents, and a corresponding folder in Exchange/Outlook for project emails.
The ability to search for ‘Project A’ documents and emails all from SharePoint would be a great feature.
Please allow .msg and .pdf files to open directly in the client application.
