@CodeCube0 we have an item in our backlog to work on this. However, we want to understand in more detail what you need. questions for you:

1. whats your scenario? you are dragging items from outlook into the taskpane? other way around?
2. what types of items are you dragging and what properties you are expecting to have for your scenario to work?
3. In what platform this is an issue? I.e. Win32 already supports drag and drop, are you targeting a specific platform? what issues have you observed?
   thanks!

From Outlook Web, it's not possible to discern which email is being dragged because while in Outlook Desktop, you're actually dragging a file, in Outlook Web, you're dragging an HTML tag. It would be useful to have the email ID or other parameters to download the email file or understand which email is being dragged.

@CodeCube0 to clarify, you are dragging an Outlook email into the taskpane, right?. Can you please confirm this is working on Desktop? you should .. thanks!

Hi @JuaneloJuanelo We have a same issue.
We develop a add-in on Outlook Web as well. And we want to drag an Outlook email into the taskpane. Then save this mail to our project.
Do you have any update? Please let me know.
