I'm wondering if there's a clean way to get an outlook email thread added as an insight into Jira Product Discovery?

@Mel Hungate today it's only possible if you use the Web version of outlook, using the Chrome extension, to add parts of an email as an insight to an idea.

@Tanguy Crusson Question is will JPD support the Outlook app eventually as a 'link' even if not part of insights

Technically outlook app it 'works' w/a pretty big flow, no attachment: 
I can search an item and find the JPD ticket, I can select add email, comment and paste body to comment - it accepts the action - but ticket does not actually have the attachment, it will show the comment(s) only. 

I can create from outlook - but its an empty shell of a ticket w/no attachment.  Now if I use the "paste email contents" to description, that provides the detail, but the email is still not 'in JPD'

If creating ideas from a single mail message, or adding certain text snippets to a new idea or to existing ideas, sounds interesting/useful:

Try opening Outlook in Edge (or Chrome of course), and use the Google Chrome extension. Edge is Chromium, so the extension works there, as well.

Also, and I haven't tried this - but I think it's possible - you can do sth there via Power Automate. Here's a template that looks promising for starters:
