Start Microsoft 365 Initial Import


Asynchronously starts the initial import of Microsoft 365 resources as a background job on the Xelion server. As a result of its asynchronous behaviour a response is sent without having completed the job.

With regards to the working of the Microsoft 365 / Xelion synchronization mechanism it is an optional feature. It allows the import of Microsoft 365 resources in Xelion, which where already present on the Microsoft 365 user account before the synchronization with Xelion.

After this first import, resources are synced in real time via a subscription - notification mechanism.

At this moment the following resources are supported for the initial import:

  • Contacts

  • Events

This initial import can require a long time depending on the number of resources the user has in his Microsoft 365 account prior to the initial Xelion synchronization. It should only be used during the first synchronization, that is after the user authenticates/authorizes for the first time in his Microsoft 365 account via Xelion.
