Shared mailboxes and calendars in Microsoft 365.
Outlook / Exchange — Shared mailboxes and calendars in Microsoft 365.
| Provides | |
|---|---|
| Knowledge source | ✓ |
| Agent tools | ✓ |
| Channel | ✓ |
Content from the scope you select, with its metadata (author, dates, location) and the access rights defined in Outlook / Exchange. Changes are picked up by change notifications where Outlook / Exchange supports them, otherwise on the schedule you set (15 minutes to daily). Deletions and permission changes are applied on the next sync.
Access rights in Outlook / Exchange are mapped to workspace users (by email) and groups. A user can only retrieve items they could open in Outlook / Exchange itself. See Permissions & access control.
| Tool | Scope | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
outlook_exchange.read | read | Read records, messages or files in scope |
outlook_exchange.search | read | Search within Outlook / Exchange |
outlook_exchange.write | write | Create or update items; subject to approval policies |
Write tools require approval by default until an approval policy says otherwise. Every call is recorded in the run trace.
Users can ask questions and receive agent results in Outlook / Exchange; approvals can be answered there too. See Platform access.
Events from Outlook / Exchange (new or updated items in scope) can start agent runs. See Automations & triggers.
Disconnecting removes the credential from the vault immediately. Documents synced from Outlook / Exchange are removed from knowledge bases within minutes and from backups as they rotate.
