  8. Select the email service Microsoft Office 365, and then select their MS Profile and grant the permission. (End user's action)

Note:

  • If "Microsoft 356 OAuth (Graph API) – App only sign-in" is set up for users, the MS Outlook/Exchange admin can assign them directly to the add-in, and can also grant consent on behalf of all users in this directory, ensuring that the end users are not requested to give consent to run the add-in.
  • In this case, the prerequisites above are still necessary, and the C4C admin still has to complete the necessary configurations detailed here.
  • If your MS Outlook/365 admin doesn't know how to mass deploy the add-in for all users, please contact the MS Outlook/Exchange support team for further assistance. (Check Configure Mass Deployment of SAP Cloud for Customer, server-side integration for Microsoft Outlook)
