Salesforce’s EmailMessage object has technical constraints that cause incomplete email history reporting. Emails from different channels aren’t captured consistently, and API limitations affect data availability.
You’ll learn how to identify these data gaps and work around them by combining multiple Salesforce objects to create more complete email history reports.

How to make it work
Step 1. Extract all available EmailMessage records.
Use custom SOQL queries to access EmailMessage fields that standard reports miss. Pull all available email records with comprehensive field selection to see what data is actually captured.
Step 2. Cross-reference Task and Event objects.
Import Task and Event data simultaneously to identify email activities recorded in different locations. Many email activities get logged as Tasks or Events instead of EmailMessage records.
Step 3. Create data comparison reports.
Import from multiple objects at once to highlight discrepancies in email tracking. Compare EmailMessage counts with Task-based email activities to identify gaps in your email history.
Step 4. Build comprehensive email audit reports.
Combine EmailMessage, Task, and Event data in a single analysis to get the fullest picture of email activity. Use formulas to consolidate email data from all sources.
Step 5. Monitor data capture consistency.
Schedule automated data extractions to track email data capture over time. Set up alerts to identify when email data capture drops unexpectedly.
