You can follow the video for a walkthrough on how to connect a service account or follow the steps in the article below.

  1. Navigate to the Manage tab within Robin's web dashboard
  2. Select the Integrations tab, and click "Connect" for Microsoft 365. 
  3. You will be provided with a pop-up window to choose how to connect to Microsoft 365. For our purposes, you will choose "Connect Service Account". connect service act.png
  4. You will be prompted to enter your credentials.
    • Make sure to sign in using the service account credentials you want to integrate, not your own. Robin will then ask for permission to access calendar information in order to sync events.
  5. Accept permissions to proceed and complete your connection.

Troubleshooting tips

  • If the pop-up window from Microsoft results in something like, "Robin Powered Service needs permission to access resources in your organization that only an admin can grant. Please ask an admin to grant permission to this app before you can use it.", you may need to update your Microsoft 365 settings to allow non-admins to sign in to apps like Robin.
  • The service account cannot connect if two-factor or multi-factor authentication is enabled.
  • When you select your service account for Microsoft 365/Exchange, your personal or administrator account may be selected by default.
  • Close all Robin tabs and open Robin in incognito mode/private browsing. Then, proceed to the Dashboard > Manage > Integrations > Microsoft 365.
  • When asked which account you’d like to connect with, click “sign out and forget” next to your personal or administrator Microsoft 365 account. Type in your service account’s credentials and click accept.
