itself.
- Enable Lightning Experience in your org. Users don’t have to use Lightning Experience, but it must be enabled in your org.
- Turn On the Integration with Outlook.
- Enable Email to Salesforce. Have users check their Email to Salesforce settings to make sure that the email address they’re using with Outlook is mapped. For more information, see How Does Email to Salesforce Work?
- Enable Enhanced Email.
- Enable Engage for Outlook (in Outlook Integration setup).
- Ask users set up their email to Salesforce. Send them to Set Up Email to Salesforce for help.

To allow users to view a prospect’s activities from Outlook, create custom email application panes.

- Activate and assign email panes for users.
