Members can connect a Microsoft 365 or Outlook.com account under Settings → Connections, and the app reads its mail and calendar live behind their contacts, companies and applications. That needs an app registration in Microsoft Entra, which an admin sets up once. It is separate from Google sign-in and is never used to sign anyone in.

Setting it up

1

Register an app

In the Microsoft Entra admin center, App registrations → New registration. For supported account types pick Accounts in any organizational directory and personal Microsoft accounts, so a work mailbox and an Outlook.com mailbox can both connect.
2

Add the redirect URI

Authentication → Add a platform → Web, with the redirect URI that Admin → Configuration → Accounts shows you, character for character. It is https://your-instance/api/auth/microsoft/callback, built from Public URL — fix that setting first if it looks wrong. A mismatch is the whole of AADSTS50011.
3

Add the permissions

API permissions → Add a permission → Microsoft Graph → Delegated: Mail.Read, Calendars.Read, User.Read and offline_access. None of these needs admin consent, and none can send, move or delete anything.
4

Create a secret and paste both in

Certificates & secrets → New client secret. Copy its value — it is shown once — and paste it with the Application (client) ID into Admin → Configuration → Accounts. Entra secrets expire, two years at most; note the date somewhere you will see it.
The Microsoft option appears on the account picker the moment both are saved, and disappears again if the client ID is cleared. Accounts already connected keep working until their token next needs refreshing, then show as needing reconnecting. By conversation: admin_get_microsoft_config, admin_set_microsoft_config.

What is stored

A refresh token per connected account, as Microsoft issues it, the same way MCP connection tokens are stored. Microsoft rotates refresh tokens on use and the app keeps the newest. Nothing read through a token is ever written to the database, and disconnecting deletes the row. Microsoft has no revoke endpoint for a single app; a person who wants to be certain can also remove the app under their Microsoft account’s privacy settings.
