Get data from Outlook attachment - ZIP?

Hi all,

 

I am new to Power BI and would really appreciate a support on this one:

 

I am getting data from Microsoft Exchange, all god, however the mails I want to get the attachments from are Zip file which have in them 1 excel file. I want to get the data from outlook directly ( i know i can dowload the excel and use it then).

 

Is there a way to do this?

 

Thanks!

 

Best regards,
Ivan
