If you want to track appointments and emails in Microsoft Dynamics 365 (CRM), you first need to set up your mailbox in the system.

Do the following:

  1. Browse to your Dynamics 365 Online URL | Advanced Settings | Settings | Email Configuration | Mailboxes | Browse for your mailbox:

    • User Name: UserName@company.com
    • Server Profile: Microsoft Exchange Online
    • Incoming Mail: Server-Side Synchronization or Email Router
    • Outgoing Mail: Server-Side Synchronization or Email Router

If you need more guidance on setting it up, you can find more on Microsoft documentation: Set incoming and outgoing email synchronization.

After this is done, you should install the Dynamics 365 App for Outlook.
