Note that your data transferred over Revenue Inbox is secured and is never shared or stored anywhere, according to RevenueGrid.com Privacy and Security principles.

Important

If you are using several different email boxes for your correspondence (not aliases), make sure to authorize RI Sync for the same email box as one for which you installed the Add-In, otherwise the Sync engine functions will work incorrectly even though RI Sync will appear to be running.

Note

In the latest Revenue Inbox updates RI Sync for MS Exchange can be activated directly from the Add-In; it is no longer necessary to open RI Sync settings to do that.

You need to activate Revenue Inbox Synchronization in the following cases:

A corresponding dialog will be brought up automatically in the Sidebar on the first start or in case 6 consequential RI synchronization attempts get rejected by your email server.

 

To (re)activate your RI Sync, enter your Exchange mailbox’s Login and Password and click Connect to Exchange.

In some configurations you may also need to enter a valid Exchange Web Services link specific to your company’s Exchange configuration. To do that, click the More v button and paste the EWS link provided by your local admin into the field.

Note that if Sync activation is skipped, a number of key Revenue Inbox features performed by RI Synchronization will be unavailable.

Next, Office 365 will request your confirmation; click Accept in this dialog to complete Sync activation. Your email data accessed by Revenue Inbox Sync engine remains all secure and private, under our Privacy & Security principles.
