RingCentral App: Synchronizing Your Google and Microsoft Contacts

Connecting your Microsoft Global Address List

Avoiding or resolving issues when connecting to company directory contacts
You may encounter error messages when connecting Microsoft 365, Microsoft Exchange (on-premise), or Google calendar on the RingCentral app. The error messages may be caused by a third party and may happen during synchronization.
To avoid or resolve these errors:
- Check your Google directory using the connected account. Contact your Google account admin to make sure the connected account has permission to read the Google directory.
- Visit the Google directory in your browser or Global Address List in the Outlook app using the same connected account that you used to sign up with RingCentral to check if the syncing works.
- Contact your company's Google or Microsoft account admin to confirm that the connected account has permission to use Google Calendar or Microsoft Graph API.
