Additional checks for On-Premise Exchange environments:

  1. Make sure that “OAuthAuthentication” is enabled for EWS (Exchange Web Services) virtual directory.  It can be verified by running the following command in Exchange Management Shell:
#>Get-WebServicesVirtualDirectory -Identity "EWS (Default Web Site)" | Select OAuthAuthentication | fl

Expected Output:

OAuthAuthentication : True 

The option OAuthAuthentication is enabled by default. For more information about enabling this option, see Set-WebServicesVirtualDirectory.                     

  1. Make sure that EWS Access is enabled for the users who are going to use the add-in. The following command can obtain the EWS related configuration:
#>Get-OrganizationConfig | Select EWS* | fl

By default, EWS is enabled for all users. The expected output for the default configuration is:

EwsAllowEntourage:
EwsAllowList:
EwsAllowMacOutlook :
EwsAllowOutlook:
EwsApplicationAccessPolicy :
EwsBlockList:
EwsEnabled : True

For more information about allowing EWS Access to users, see Controlling client application access to EWS in Exchange.

  1. Ensure the digital certificates used in EWS are signed by a Certificate Authority (CA) and not self-signed certificates (Certificates signed by the same entity whose identity it certifies).
