Configure Microsoft 365 Access for Email2Ticket

 

Email2Ticket is cloud-based integration software that allows you to process emails using
your preferred PSA system. The typical use of Email2Ticket is to read your “support”
email account where your customers send support requests, and automatically create
new Autotask or ConnectWise tickets, or add (append) notes to existing tickets.

Email2Ticket can connect to Microsoft 365 mailboxes using the Microsoft Graph
API. To set up Email2Ticket in this way, you must register a new application on the
customer's Azure Environment. Follow these steps to enable the integration.

 

Step 1 — Register New Enterprise Application

Here's how to create a new app in the Azure Portal. In Step 2 — Add API Permissions to
New Enterprise App, you will assign API permissions to this app.

 

  1. First, access portal.azure.com and log in to the customer's Azure environment as
    an admin user.

app the appropriate API permissions. Here's how this works:

  1. From Azure Active Directory > Enterprise Apps, click on and open the newly
    created application.
  2. Then click Add a Permission.

    connection to Email2Ticket via the app's management console.

    sign and authenticate the app. To do this:
