Alloovium

Integrations

Microsoft Outlook

Connect Outlook to sync project emails and meeting notes into Alloovium via Microsoft OAuth.

Overview

The Outlook integration connects Alloovium to your Microsoft 365 mailbox. Project-related emails, meeting summaries, and attachments are imported into Alloovium so your AI assistant can answer questions across email correspondence and project documents together.

Read-only access

Alloovium requests read-only access to your Outlook mailbox. We never send emails, move messages, or modify folders. Read our data handling commitments →

What data we access

We read: email subjects, body text, attachments, and sender/recipient information from the folders you select. We do not read your calendar, contacts, or tasks unless those integrations are separately connected.

Setup

Outlook uses the same Microsoft OAuth application as SharePoint. If you have already connected SharePoint, you may be able to skip the authentication step.

  1. 1

    Click Connect

    Go to Integrations → Outlook in Alloovium and click Connect. You will be redirected to Microsoft to authorise access.

  2. 2

    Sign in with Microsoft

    Sign in with your Microsoft 365 account. Review the permissions (Mail.Read) and click Accept.

  3. 3

    Select folders to sync

    Choose which Outlook folders or labels to import. Alloovium monitors those folders for new emails.

  4. 4

    Initial import

    Alloovium imports existing emails from your selected folders and then monitors for new messages.

Shared OAuth app with SharePoint

Outlook and SharePoint use the same Microsoft OAuth application in Alloovium. If SharePoint is already connected, you may only need to grant the additional Mail.Read scope.

Permissions

We request: Mail.Read (read email messages). We do not request Mail.Send, Mail.ReadWrite, or access to calendar or contacts.

Troubleshooting

Admin consent required

Some Microsoft 365 tenants require administrator consent before users can connect third-party apps. Your IT administrator can grant consent in Azure AD → Enterprise Applications → Alloovium → Permissions.

Conditional Access blocking sign-in

If your organisation has Conditional Access policies restricting third-party app access, your IT administrator will need to create an exception or grant Alloovium access explicitly.
