If you're an end user, see: How to Connect Microsoft 365 Calendar to LeanLaw

Overview

The Microsoft 365 integration allows LeanLaw to access calendar events so users can reference them when tracking time.

Depending on your organization’s settings, admin approval may be required before users can connect their accounts.

Requirements

Before enabling the integration, confirm:

  • Your organization uses Microsoft 365

  • Users have valid Microsoft accounts

  • Required permissions can be granted through Microsoft Entra (Azure AD)

Admin consent and permissions

Some organizations require admin consent before users can connect their calendars.

To grant admin consent:

  1. Sign in to Microsoft Entra (Azure AD) as an administrator

  2. Locate the LeanLaw application

  3. Review requested permissions

  4. Grant consent for your organization

This allows users to connect without individual approval prompts.

Enabling the integration in LeanLaw

Depending on your setup, ensure:

  • The Microsoft 365 integration feature is enabled

  • Required feature flags (if applicable) are active

  • Users can access the integration from the Time Entry page

Verifying the connection

After setup:

  • Have a user connect their Microsoft 365 account

  • Confirm that calendar events appear in LeanLaw

  • Validate that events can be used for time tracking

Troubleshooting

Users cannot connect their accounts

  • Confirm admin consent has been granted

  • Verify Microsoft permissions are correctly configured

Permission errors during connection

  • Review Microsoft Entra settings

  • Ensure required scopes are approved

Events not syncing

  • Confirm the integration is enabled in LeanLaw

  • Ask the user to disconnect and reconnect

  • Check for delays in Microsoft data syncing

Best practices

  • Grant admin consent early to reduce onboarding friction

  • Communicate setup steps to users before rollout

  • Test the integration with a small group before full deployment
