Microsoft 365 and identity connections

Looking for what it does rather than how to use it? Read the Microsoft 365 and Google overview .

Administrator permissions, consent and external vendor licences still apply. A connection only enables the configured workflows for its organization.

Connect Microsoft 365

  1. Confirm the organization’s plan and your administration rights.
  2. Start the Microsoft connection and review the permissions requested.
  3. Have an authorized Microsoft administrator grant consent.
  4. Enable the required directory, mailbox or document-linking workflows.
  5. Review group-to-role mappings and mailbox routing before turning on synchronization.
  6. Test the configured workflow with an approved account or mailbox.

An organization connection is separate from a person’s Outlook calendar connection and from its single sign-on configuration. Check each relevant status rather than assuming one consent enables every feature.

Google options

Google single sign-on is implemented. Gmail-based supplier-invoice capture is a separate implemented mailbox workflow; it requires its own approved setup and permissions.

A broad Google Workspace connector covering directory synchronization, Calendar, Drive and general Gmail workflows is not available. Do not use the Microsoft instructions as a Google setup guide.

Troubleshooting

Check the connected organization, plan access, consent, enabled workflow and mailbox or group configuration. For email-to-ticket issues, check the mailbox-to-queue routing and reply settings. Contact support with the connection status and the affected workflow, excluding secrets and mailbox credentials.
