Microsoft Outlook Email ACTION

Get Current User

Returns the authenticated Microsoft user's ID, display name, email, and principal name via Microsoft Graph. Call this first when the user says 'my emails', 'my inbox', or needs identity context. Use the returned id to scope queries in Find Email or identify the sender in email results. See the documentation.
