Outlook synchronization in GNOME

GNOME 3 has online accounts feature, similar to one in iOS or Android. By adding Your Google account, You will have synchronized:

• mails in Geary mail,
• tasks in Todo and
• appointments in Calendar.

But adding outlook account gives You only synchronization of mails. To have tasks and appointments synchronized, You have to install Evolution plugin for Exchange Web Services by using the command:

sudo dnf install evolution-ews

Then You have to generate a Microsoft App Password, which You can do here. This link should send You to the right place where an App password is generated, if not, from outlook account go to Security (top menu), more security options (bottom of the page) and Create a new app password (middle of the page).

When You have Microsoft App Password, You can add Microsoft Account in GNOME online account settings. Note: to synchronize tasks and appointments, You have to add Microsoft Exchange account using App Password from the second step!

Then add normal Microsoft Account to synchronize emails in Geary app.
