Exchange Server Sync - Overview
Supported Versions Of Microsoft Exchange Server | User Guide And Sync Tool | Current Version
NOTE: Workamajig is deprecating the Exchange Server Sync. The preferred connection is using a subscription to your Outlook calendar. The tool may be hidden in the UI. If you do not see Sync Settings, please contact your Account Manager at support@workamajig.com for further assistance.
There are two versions of Exchange that are available for creating a connection to the Workamajig calendar. Though most people have moved to Microsoft 365 which includes an online version, the tool below can also be used for a local hosted version of Exchange.
The connection to via Exchange allows for a 1-way In; 1-way Out or Bidirectional sync of calendar events. However, as most people would consider Outlook to be the "Primary" calendar for the organization, we would recommend that the sync direction be set to "TO WORKAMAJIG" for most implementations.
The connection to Workamajig requires a tool be installed on any Windows 7 or higher or Windows Server machine.
NOTES:
- SPAM Filters: Ensure that you whitelist Workamajig at all levels. This may include frontline exchange servers, mail servers, and the individual box filters.
- Exchange is a Microsoft product, as such the sync tool we created requires it to be installed on a Windows OS.
- Any tests you do with this type of sync must be used with an Active user in Workamajig.
