Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 email notification minimum M365 license requirement ?

Post by albertwt »

Hi All,

I wonder if the Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 supports using the SendGrid API to send out email notification rather than using the Exchange Online P1 or P2 mailbox license ?

https://azuremarketplace.microsoft.com/ ... nsAndPrice

Will that solution work or is it in the next feature request of this product?

Thank you.

We have been using sendgrid for some time now and it works fine.

Just fill in the smpt, port and api keys that Sendgrid provides and it should work.

@fousey,

I have created the credentials using: https://app.sendgrid.com/guide/integrate/langs/smtp

Can you confirm from this documentation page: https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/vbo36 ... tml?ver=80 which setting you are using to successfully authenticate securely against SendGrid API ?

I can only use this one: https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/vbo36 ... tml?ver=80

SMTP Server with Basic Authentication and it is insecure due to the Basic Authentication is now blocked or deprecated in the Exchange Online /M365 platform.
