The official Canon one is called ACK-E12 I think, but it's overpriced and apparently unavailable.

The ACK-E12 is a kit, which includes the CA-PS700, which is in stock from Canon Direct (USA), https://shop.usa.canon.com/shop/en/catalog/compact-power-adapter-ca-ps700 . Yes, it's over-priced, but you're confident the barrel connector will fit.

If you search for 'm200 usb power adapter' or similar you should be able to find a bunch of reasonably priced third party ones. Just make sure it's one marked for use with EOS M, because the SL1 uses the same battery but needs a different adapter for external power.

Same deal with the RP. The RP dummy battery has a cord attached to it, which interferes with the EOS M's battery latch.
