Posted on by Ahmed El-Etriby

Hey All,

Our users are experiencing an issue when tracking meetings into CRM using the APP for Outlook.

When a meeting is tracked into CRM for OUTLOOK via APP FOR OUTLOOK, any meeting details like 'Teams/webex details' become like PLAIN TEXT so links are not clickable.

Is this being experienced anywhere else?

See below examples.

Hello Ahmed,

You can take a look at orgDBSettings. There are a few configurations available for app for outlook that might be helpful in your case. I doubt if "StoreOutlookSyncDataInSensitivityProperty" is causing the issue.

Hey Naveen,

Is this done on the local level for users or is this a global setting?

Yes, we have a solution given to us by Microsoft:

To fix this you can disable the feature in admin center:

Path to go to this setting in PPAC:

Environment-> ... next to its name -> settings-> Product -> features

Toggle off "End users can add and join Teams meetings from appointments in model-drive apps"

Now, clear the cache and create new appointment.

Then once you do this, you should then be able to turn this back on and it should be fixed. Please test the above steps and let me know if this works. If you should see any further issues let me know and we can dig in further as there are a few other areas we can check.
