What is an Email Parser?

An email parser is a software that allows you to extract data from incoming emails.

Email parsers can be configured to pull specific data fields from incoming emails. By doing so they allow you to convert an unstructured email into easy-to-handle structured data.

Most email parsers will let you parse data fields from the email body and email headers. More advanced solutions, like Mailparser, can also parse data from email attachments such as PDF, Word, and Excel files. Try it for yourself with our FREE subscription!

Is email parsing like web scraping?

Yes, email parsing is very similar to scraping the web. Email parsing works like web scraping but instead of extracting data from HTML websites, it allows you to scrape data from emails. You can parse email header content, body content, and even the signature of incoming emails. Data you want from emails is piped to the location you need it, based on your email parser rules. It’s as simple as that.

How does email parsing work?

Most email parsers allow you to either pull specific emails directly from your mailbox or provide you an email address to which you can forward the emails you want to parse. Once the emails are available to the email parser, a parsing algorithm will extract the data fields you are after from the email. Most email parsers are rule-based and allow you to create custom parsing rules. Creating a parsing rule is usually straight forward and no coding is required.
