How do I integrate with Microsoft Outlook?

Integrate your phone system or meeting details with Outlook. Share your Outlook contacts with your GoTo Connect contact list and select a phone number within Outlook to initiate a call.

You must have a Microsoft account to use this integration.

Before you begin: The new GoTo Outlook add-in doesn’t support all browsers (for example, IE11). If you’re on an unsupported browser, you will get a Old version of Outlook detected message and the old GoTo Meeting Office 365 Outlook Add-In will be installed instead. In this case, only events will be synced. Learn more about browsers used by Outlook add-ins.

Restriction: This Outlook Integration does not work with private hosted versions of exchange.

Note: The Microsoft Outlook integration login session expires after 7 days.

Attention: We recently merged the GoTo Connect and GoTo Meeting for Outlook integrations. GoTo Connect users can expect to see a change in the integration name to GoTo for Outlook.
