Certero Microsoft 365 on-premises connector

When creating a Microsoft 365 Connector in an on-premises environment, the connector requires access to certain URL's via HTTPS port 443 without the traffic being sent via a proxy server. This is to receive data from the Microsoft Graph API.

A point to consider here is that it is recommended that customers open URL’s rather than ports as Microsoft may change the ports without notice. Please see the below table below for the protocols, ports and URL's that are required for the Microsoft 365 connector to work:

Some firewalls only allow IP address ranges to be added rather than the DNS name. The table below shows the protocols, ports and IP address ranges that are required for the Microsoft 365 connector to work:
