Connect your Microsoft 365 account to Rally for efficient email, calendar management, and interview scheduling and management. Depending on the Workspace settings configured by your Rally Super Admin, you may only need to connect your calendar. This applies when a custom email domain has been set up as the preferred email method.

From the sidebar, select 'Connected Accounts'.
To the right of Microsoft 365, select 'Connect Microsoft 365'.
A popup will appear asking you to log into your Microsoft 365 account.
After signing in, you’ll need to approve the requested permissions, listed in the table below.

Once complete, your Microsoft 365 account should be connected and ready to use!
