I'm looking into setting up an automated process to create the user's outlook profile.
In my attempt to research setting this up, I find different names and their description claim to be the same thing, so now I'm puzzled what the kind of procedure it is that I want to learn more about.
I'm not asking for a learning recommendation, just what the name of the procedure is that I'm looking for, so I can continue my research.
My goal is that a user who never logged in, can start outlook and either press next, next, next, finish, or even better, start outlook, and the profile already is created during logon.
I will be using Office365 with Active Directory Sync and the domain will have the auto discover setup correctly.
So it should be that upon starting outlook, the email adress is already filled in to the user's email address, and the password will be the same as the one they used to login in the first place.
Is this Zero Config Exchange? Common Settings Discover? or something else?
Well yes... there are multiple methods of doing it. But my question is, what's the name of the procedure? Office is preinstalled most of the cases due to it also being done on a terminal server. – LPChip – 2017-11-06T16:31:01.203
@LPChip I’m not sure what you’re asking. I did mention the components you need in my answer. Some searching for that will provide lots of information. – Appleoddity – 2017-11-06T16:36:32.483
If you reread my question, you find out that I already saw these, but that I'm unsure what result it will bring, so I don't know with what technique I'm working. Its my goal to learn more about this before even attempting to implement it. By just learning a trick, I don't become better at my job. I want to understand why I'm doing it. – LPChip – 2017-11-06T21:23:30.593
@LPChip sorry it isn't a single concept. I can appreciate you wanting to study and learn more, but that means researching multiple different technologies. Something I updated my answer to address. From those links you'll find more terms and concepts you can look up. It's the best I can do. – Appleoddity – 2017-11-06T22:32:56.110
+1 on the answer. Definitely something I can work with, though technically speaking, it still does not directly answer my question, but it does answer the scenario I am trying to get to. It just doesn't explain the difference between ZCE and CSD. But I will do some testing with this and if I get the result I want, I gladly mark this as answered. :) – LPChip – 2017-11-07T08:17:49.417
