Granting IT Consent for Outlook integration with DocketCalendar involves a few steps that typically need to be performed by someone with administrative rights in your organization's Microsoft 365 admin center. Here's a general outline of the process:
- Access Microsoft 365 Admin Center: The person with administrative privileges should log in to the Microsoft 365 admin center. This is usually the IT administrator or someone in a similar role who has access to manage permissions and enterprise applications within your organization.
- Navigate to Azure Active Directory: Once in the admin center, navigate to the Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) section. This may involve selecting "Admin centers" > "Azure Active Directory," or it may be directly accessible from the main dashboard, depending on your admin center setup.
- Select Enterprise Applications: In Azure AD, go to "Enterprise applications." This section allows administrators to view and manage the third-party applications that have access to your organization's data.
- Find DocketCalendar Application: Search for the DocketCalendar application within the list of enterprise applications. If DocketCalendar has been previously added, it should appear in this list. If not, you may need to add it by selecting "New application" and following the prompts to search for and select DocketCalendar from the available applications.
- Grant Admin Consent: Once you have located or added the DocketCalendar application, select it to view its details. Look for a section or option labeled something like "Permissions" or "Admin consent." Here, you will find the option to grant consent for the permissions requested by DocketCalendar. This typically involves clicking a button labeled "Grant admin consent" or similar. Confirm the action as prompted.
- Verification: After granting consent, verify that the status reflects the change. This might be indicated by a status message or confirmation dialog within the Azure AD portal.
- Inform Users: Once IT Consent has been granted, inform your DocketCalendar users that the integration with Outlook can now be fully utilized. They may need to perform additional steps, like logging in through DocketCalendar or connecting their Outlook accounts from within DocketCalendar, to complete the integration process.
This process ensures that DocketCalendar has the necessary permissions to interact with your organization's Outlook calendars, enabling features like automatic event creation, updates, and reminders based on the legal cases and deadlines managed within DocketCalendar. Always ensure that such actions comply with your organization's IT policies and data protection regulations.
