The user who is logged in and wants to integrate should be part of that sub-account and only in that case you can find the Profile in the Settings menu.

You will then be required to permit LeadConnector to access your Outlook Calendar. Proceed with that to continue.

How to configure my calendar to use Outlook Integration?

Navigate to Settings >> Profile >>, and scroll down to the bottom right, where you will find Calendar Configuration. In the Calendar configuration, you have two segments.

  • Primary Calendar: It reads all the calendar events from Google/Outlook and writes all the appointments to Outlook/Google.
  • Check for Conflicts: It only reads calendar events from Google/Outlook.

Primary Calendar Configuration : 

Click on the edit button under Primary Calendar to select your Outlook account. You’ll find all your Outlook calendars in the dropdown, and you can choose one of the calendars to which you want to read and write. 

Please Note:

If appointments are not syncing over from Outlook or to Outlook, please Edit the Primary calendar, choose Do not sync events to the primary calendar> Save> Then reselect the same calendar. This should resolve the syncing issue.

Check for Conflicts Configuration:

Click the edit button under Check for Conflicts to find all your calendars in your Outlook account. Proceed to select the calendar that you want to check for conflicts. 

FAQ:

Will Outlook integration work in unassigned calendars?

No, it only works for team calendars.

Can I connect two different Outlook accounts in one location to one user?

No, you can connect only one Outlook account to one user in a location.

The system is not allowing me to connect an Outlook account to a user already connected by a different user (Even if it is the same person just using another email address in the other CRM user account). If that is functionality, can you guys give me a workaround?

Yes, one Outlook account can be connected to one single user in any number of locations, but the same Outlook account can’t be connected to a different user. However, we are showing a detailed message for it.

No, as of now, you have to log in to the system with your Agents account and connect to Outlook, and then you can configure Primary and Calendar Configuration from Team Management.
