Filtering on email categories when connecting to Microsoft Exchange

So I've just dipped my toe in the water of connecting to Outlook to count emails. This is a great connector!

However, the mailbox in question is a customer service mailbox which receives queries. They 'categorise' emails in the inbox depending on the nature of the query.

I've expanded 'Extended Properties' and found a 'Category' column but it's only displaying null. The Categories are not in there. 

 

Do you know of a way to filter my data based on email category? Or is this not a function yet?

Hi @Anonymous 

 

You don't need to expand "Extended Properties", there is a "Categories" column between "Importance" and "IsRead" columns. Expand it to new rows and you will see the category values. Then you can filter the data.
