You’ll need to sign in to the diagnostics tool with your Customer Engagement credentials.

  1. Meet the Dynamics 365 for Outlook requirements specified in Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Outlook hardware requirements and Dynamics 365 for Outlook support matrixes.

  2. Log on to the computer as a local administrator.

  3. Make sure that the latest Microsoft Office updates are installed, including all security updates. To verify, visit Microsoft Update.

  4. Locate and run the appropriate installation file by choosing one of the following methods:

    • To install from the web (version 8.x), go to Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2016 for Microsoft Office Outlook (Outlook Client), and then download and run the executable file that matches the installed Microsoft Office architecture.

Enable multi-factor authentication through OAuth

In the Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Outlook Configuration Wizard, System Administrators can enable multi-factor authentication through the OAuth 2.0 Framework. OAuth 2.0 is an open framework for authorization that lets users provide access tokens, instead of credentials, to access data hosted by a given service provider (such as Dynamics 365 apps). Using MFA can help make client authentication more secure, especially for mobile users. Dynamics 365 apps versions of Dynamics 365 for Customer Engagement can take advantage of MFA.. Customer Engagement automatically uses OAuth.

    -- OR --

  2. Use Group Policy to update the following registration key:

    HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftMSCRMClient{orgid}.

    Set AuthenticationProvider to 0

    After the registry change, Dynamics 365 for Outlook will automatically check for and use OAuth for MFA.

    In addition

    You might need to enable the following AD FS endpoint: /adfs/service/trust/13/windowstransport

    For information on enabling an endpoint, see Sign in to Microsoft 365, Azure, or Intune fails after you change the federation service endpoint.
