Add App Outlook to external guest users

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 1,712
Hello,

I have a guest user invited to our tenant to be able to access our CRM. For this guest user, we would like to give him the option to synchronize the emails that he will receive in our Dynamics 365 environment.

We already granted the user the below roles and licenses:
  • Dynamics 365 App for Outlook
  • Dynamics 365 Sales Enterprise
  • Exchange License
While approving his mailbox, the only configuration that worked was Incoming Mail and Appointments. As for the outgoing email, it failed because of the below reason that we received from Alerts:

In addition, while trying to add the Outlook App to the external user we got the below error:

What do you advise as a solution to make it work for external users? Or is the best practice to create a forwarding email that is hosted under our tenant and we set up auto-sync?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Best regards,
Julien

    It is mentioned in the following Incompatibilities documentation that

    Dynamics 365 App for Outlook

    Invited users will not be able to use their own tenant email addresses when performing email related transactions in the host environment.

    I am also curious about the best practice since the only D365 project that I worked with external guest users is the Field Service project one used by external resources but they only use Field Service Mobile and not Dynamics 365 App for Outlook.

    @LinnZawWin , It seems that it is not possible to sync emails of AAD Guest users to CRM as the tool cannot be installed in the application they are using whether it is (Outlook, Yahoo, Gmail, Hotmail, etc..) and the documentation that you shared is stating that clearly.
