How To Sync Microsoft Dynamics Users To Outreach via Inbound Create

Purpose: 

The purpose of this article is to provide direction to Outreach Admins in syncing users from Microsoft Dynamics to the Outreach platform via the Inbound Create option. 

Intended Audience: 

• Outreach Admins

Notes:

• Outreach does not sync users from Dynamics into Outreach.  This option must be enabled after enabling the plugin.
• When enabled, Dynamics users will be automatically created in Outreach. 
• Dynamics users must exist in Outreach in order for Outreach to sync CRM records and activities correctly.  Outreach recommends enabling user sync after enabling the plugin.
• Outreach users created via user sync are locked by default and cannot be used to login until activated. 
• Users created via sync will not count against license limit until assigning a license to users. For more information regarding activating users, refer to the Outreach Seat Management Process.
