Can I use Outlook as a tool inside an AI agent in Sim?

Yes — this is one of Sim's core capabilities. Instead of hard-coding when and how Outlook is used, you give an AI agent access to Outlook tools and describe the goal in plain language. The agent decides which tools to call, in what order, and how to handle the results. This means your automation adapts to context rather than breaking when inputs change.

How do I trigger a Sim agent from Outlook automatically?

What data does Sim receive when a Outlook event triggers an agent?
