Exchange Input

Prev Next

Applies to: Lasernet Core 10

Used for picking up files from a Microsoft Exchange Server. The Exchange module integrates directly with Exchange Web Services (EWS) to retrieve emails.

EWS was introduced by Microsoft in Exchange Server 2007, but will no longer receive feature updates. While the service will continue to receive security updates and certain non-security updates, product design and features will remain unchanged.

Microsoft has announced that EWS will still be available and supported for use in production environments. However, we suggest migrating to the Outlook Mail module, using Microsoft Graph API to access Exchange Online data and gain access to the latest features and functionality. The Outlook Mail module was introduced in Lasernet 9.5

Processed emails will be marked as read by Lasernet Core.

General

Protocol The version number of the Exchange Server being connected to.
EWS URL

Location of the Exchange Web Services. If connecting to Microsoft Online (Cloud solution), use the following URL:

https://red002.mail.emea.microsoftonline.com/ews/exchange.asmx

or

https://amsprd0310.outlook.com/EWS/Exchange.asmx

If the URL is left empty, Lasernet Core will run an auto discover service each time the poll interval is reached. If the URL is retrieved successfully it will be logged and a connection will be established. We recommend that you add the URL stored in the log, to the EWS URL field to enable faster connection to the Exchange Server in future.
