This article explains how to use the Microsoft Remote Connectivity Analyzer to verify that your Exchange Sync service account is correctly configured to sync contacts and calendar events with Salesforce.
Exchange Sync is a Salesforce feature that synchronizes records — such as contacts and calendar events — between a Microsoft Exchange server and Salesforce, using a service account with Exchange Web Services (EWS) impersonation. The User Principal Name (UPN) is the sign-in format used to identify the service account user in Active Directory, typically in the format user@domain.com.
Use this test before providing your service account credentials to Salesforce, or when users report that their contacts or events are not syncing correctly.
Use the following steps to run the Microsoft Remote Connectivity Analyzer and test your Exchange Sync service account connectivity. This test confirms that Salesforce can access the specified Exchange mailboxes through EWS impersonation and helps identify configuration issues before they impact users.
