We have had issues twice now where a user has had MFA (2 step verification security) enabled on their Office 365 account and then the calendar stops syncing correctly from their website through the Amelia plugin.
Is this something you guys are aware of and hopefully working on fixing?
For the Outlook calendar integration, your employees need to log into their Microsoft accounts, where Microsoft handles the login security. If they can log in successfully, it means they've passed any MFA requirements.
If your employees’ profiles keep disconnecting from Outlook Calendar, it might be an issue with the credentials or the configuration of the app you created in Azure. I recommend reviewing this video and going through the integration process again.
We've had our Outlook profiles linked for months without any issues, and we haven't received any reports from other customers about integration problems.
Thank you for the quick response and that is good to hear. Unfortunately our issue seems to happen when MFA has been enabled or turned on for the users Office 365 account. Amelia then loses the option to "sign in with Outlook" from the employee's section. Once MFA is turned off that option comes back.
Amelia doesn’t have the capability to check for this. When you access the Employee’s profile, if the Outlook Calendar integration is enabled and the employee hasn’t connected to Outlook yet, the button to log into Outlook will appear. If it’s not configured, it won’t show. Amelia only directs the user to Outlook when the button is clicked, and it can’t determine if MFA is enabled before then.
Additionally, if the integration has been set up but not configured correctly, the "Log in" button might disappear. To fix this, you may need to delete the rows in the wp_amelia_providers_to_outlook_calendar database table (see the article below for detailed instructions). However, Amelia can’t determine if the user has MFA enabled. It simply provides the option to log in and then redirects the user to Microsoft's login page, where Microsoft handles the authentication once the "Log in" button is clicked.
Could you record your screen to show this behavior? It shouldn’t be happening. Also, please provide me with temporary wp-admin (Administrator) credentials in a PRIVATE response, so I can log in and take a look.

Hi Epyon,
I’m sorry, but that doesn’t seem quite right.

If it’s not configured, it won’t show. Amelia only directs the user to Outlook when the button is clicked, and it can’t determine if MFA is enabled before then.
