create ps1

Dear @ANASTASIOS KATSOULIS,

Thank you for posting your question in the Microsoft Q&A forum.

Yes, it is possible to create a PowerShell script (.ps1 file) to automate the creation of new folders in Outlook (classic for Windows). This works by using the Outlook COM object model, which allows PowerShell to interact with the Outlook client installed on your PC.

A few important points to note:

• Outlook must be installed and configured on the machine where you run the script.
• Folders created through the script will appear in your mailbox and sync across devices if you’re using Exchange or Microsoft 365.

For more information you can look through these articles as references:

• Create Folder for All Mailboxes in Exchange Online
• Create new Outlook folders using PowerShell

Otherwise, you can use New-MailboxFolder and this cmdlet is available in on-premises Exchange and in the cloud-based service. Some parameters and settings might be exclusive to one environment or the other.

Use the New-MailboxFolder cmdlet to create folders in your own mailbox. Administrators can't use this cmdlet to create folders in other mailboxes (the cmdlet is available only from the MyBaseOptions user role). For reference: New-MailboxFolder

To find the permissions required to run any cmdlet or parameter in your organization, see Find the permissions required to run any Exchange cmdlet. .
