Add Office 365 Outlook

Workflow

  1. Check Memory Bank -> 2. Add Connector -> 3. Review Generated Service -> 4. Configure -> 5. Build -> 6. Update Memory Bank

Step 1: Check Memory Bank

Check for memory-bank.md per shared-instructions.md.

Step 2: Add Connector

First, find the connection ID (see connector-reference.md):

Run the /list-connections skill. Find the Office 365 Outlook connection in the output (API name contains office365). If none exists, direct the user to create one using the environment-specific Connections URL, construct it from the active environment ID in context (from power.config.json or a prior step): https://make.powerapps.com/environments/<environment-id>/connections → + New connection → search for the connector → Create.

pa app add data-source --connector office365 -c <connection-id>

Step 3: Review Generated Service

The generated service file (src/generated/services/Office365OutlookService.ts) is large. Use Grep to find specific methods instead of reading the entire file:

Grep pattern="async \w+" path="src/generated/services/Office365OutlookService.ts"
