Connect Salesforce to Your Microsoft Exchange Endpoint

If your Exchange Web Service (EWS) isn’t exposed externally because the Microsoft Autodiscover setting isn’t on, Einstein Activity Capture or Inbox can’t find your Microsoft Exchange account. Manually connect your Microsoft Exchange endpoint to Salesforce so that your Microsoft Exchange users can benefit from Einstein Activity Capture or Inbox.
