Updated: Oct 06, 2023***
:::note Exchange Online and the EWS retirement
This integration is not affected by Microsoft's retirement of Exchange Web Services (EWS) in Exchange Online. It connects through Exchange PowerShell instead.
Microsoft has disabled Basic authentication, including Remote PowerShell, in Exchange Online, so the **Basic** authentication method can't connect to Exchange Online. See [Microsoft's retirement announcement](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/exchange/clients-and-mobile-in-exchange-online/deprecation-of-ews-exchange-online) for the EWS timeline.
