Admins and owners can also read the full Blinq Outlook integration overview in our docs. For plan details, see our pricing page.
Sync your Blinq contacts into your Outlook address book automatically.
Blinq can connect with your company's Outlook (Exchange) environment for contact export and sync.
At this time, contacts only appear in the Outlook address book of the Blinq user who created the contact. This means that:
The Blinq user's profile email must match their Microsoft Outlook Exchange login.
Any contacts that don't have a user listed in the 'Created by' column of the Blinq company contacts list won't be exported.
Note: The Outlook integration is available on Blinq Business and Enterprise plans.
You'll also need at least one company contact in your workspace before you begin. See Managing Team Contacts for how to add one.
Supported features
Export single or multiple contacts
Sync updates to existing contacts
Track meetings between Blinq users and contacts
Connecting Blinq to Outlook
Go to the Blinq dashboard and log in.
Go to Settings, then the Integrations tab.
Under Export contacts, find Outlook and select Connect.
When prompted, sign in with a Microsoft 365 account that can grant consent for your whole organization. This is usually a Global Administrator; being an Exchange administrator often isn't enough.
Authorize Blinq to sync with your Outlook instance.
Once connected, choose whether to export existing contacts immediately.
Note: Admin permissions are required in Blinq to complete this integration. The Microsoft 365 account you connect with needs to be able to grant consent for your whole organization, which is usually a Global Administrator.
Customizing your Outlook integration settings
After connecting, you control how contacts sync:
Automatically export new contacts. Sync new Blinq contacts to Outlook automatically.
Automatically sync contact updates. Push updates from Blinq to existing Outlook contacts.
Toggle the options on or off, then select Save.
Manually exporting contacts to Outlook
You can export contacts manually at any time:
Go to the Contacts page.
Select the Export Contacts dropdown.
Select To Outlook.
Select Export contacts to begin.
Note: If a contact has already been exported, it's updated, not duplicated.
