How to connect an Outlook MCP with Claude Code (4 steps)
Blog post from Merge
Merge offers a solution for developers to integrate Outlook email and calendar data directly into their terminal sessions using the Merge Agent Handler, which acts as an intermediary between Claude Code and Microsoft's Outlook API. This setup allows developers to bypass manual efforts of retrieving operationally relevant information from Outlook, such as outage alerts, vendor notices, and meeting invites, and instead access it seamlessly within their workflow. By installing the Merge CLI and authenticating through Merge Agent Handler, users can maintain secure, centralized management of OAuth tokens and permissions, facilitating easier and more scalable team integration. The service supports various operations, including searching emails, reading content, managing folders, and querying calendar events, while also ensuring that IT departments can govern access and maintain security protocols. This integration enhances productivity by allowing developers to draw necessary context from Outlook without disrupting their work in the terminal.
