About Outlook Integration

Managing your appointments, events, and emails with leads and clients is easier than ever with our Swivel integration for Outlook. Outlook Integration features both email and calendar syncing with the option to enable email only, calendar only, or both.

  • Schedule appointments directly from Swivel into Outlook (and vice versa).

  • Log and store email communication for contacts and clients in real time.

Once you’ve set-up Microsoft Outlook Integration for your Swivel account, Outlook events and/or emails will automatically sync directly to their respective contact records in your Swivel CRM.

📌 Note: Users can only link their Microsoft Email account in 1 tenant account. Even if a user has access to multiple tenant accounts, they will have to use different Microsoft accounts to have the Microsoft Outlook Integration functionality in both tenants.
