How to Backup Outlook Emails to OneDrive as PDF via MultCloud [Automatically]
The first method will be backing up Outlook emails through MultCloud. MultCloud focuses on managing your multiple clouds and Email Migration is one of its main functions. Email Migration automates the email-to-cloud transfer process and it will convert the emails into PDFs before migration. By doing so, you can check the emails on OneDrive in PDF format, ignoring the steps for changing the file type.
Besides, there are more customizable options that you can apply to the migration task.

- Email Filter: Select your desired emails with their sender, recipient, date, with/without attachment, or unread.
- Schedule: Set your preferred time or frequency to run the migration task.
- Save Attachment: Support saving emails with or without attachments.
- Conversation Format: Every message will be listed individually in the PDF files.
- Save the last message only: Only list the last message singly. Other messages will be shown as quotations.
Step 1: Enter the MultCloud website and get started with a new account.
Step 2: Click “Add Cloud” and choose OneDrive among the cloud icons. Then log in to your OneDrive account. Also, click “Add Email”, choose Outlook, and log in to the Outlook account. After that, your OneDrive and Outlook are connected to MultCloud.
Step 3: Select “Email Migration” and choose Outlook and OneDrive in the boxes. Finally, tap on the “Migrate Now” button to initiate the task.
Migration Features:
- Schedule: You can use this feature to set a backup frequency for your task like once a day at 7:30.
- Filter: It can help you select the emails with the email sender, recipient, date, status, and with/without attachments. Then you can choose to only migrate or not migrate these selected emails.
- Setting: You can decide how your emails are displayed in the PDF. If you choose “Conversation Format”, every message of an email will be listed individually. And if you choose “Save the last message only”, it means only the last message of the email will be shown in single and other messages will be the quotation.
Note:
- There is a 50-email limitation for migrating emails to a cloud every month and you can upgrade your plan to break the limitation.
