Preface
It's time to share new information with you.
Recently, some friends asked me, "Can I pull the address book and calendar in Gmail into outlook 」
「 Certainly 」
Because Gmail is a cloud service provided by Google
So of course, let's take a look at whether Google's Google Apps sync for Microsoft Outlook software provides such a feature.
There are still some restrictions on the integration of googleapps sync for Microsoft Outlook and Microsoft Outlook ~
Experienced partners must know
He only supports googleapps accounts. Yes, it's the one to pay. Free Gmail is not supported.
「 Isn't that enough 」
Yes. "It is useless for the average person 」
To enable Gmail contacts and calendars to be used in Outlook
This is a simple idea, but it is a huge Golden Rooster between Google and Microsoft.
To put it simply, how can they simply let you do it?

Let's take a look at the outlook plug-in "evocollaborator for outlook ".
This plug-in is really small enough, only 3 MB
The most amazing thing is that when Outlook encounters an ECO, outlook can break through Microsoft and Google's blocking.
Synchronize "contacts, calendars" with Google's carddav and caldav
What are carddav and caldav?
This is another amazing thing. carddav and caldav are the standard APIs for communication between contacts and calendars.
In the Google service, the backend communication protocol for contacts, calendars, and one piece is actually your own Google Contacts API and Google Calendar API.
But maybe Google wants to show its open-standard enterprise image. They also support carddav and caldav.
It is an open standard, but it is worth noting that after Google removes Microsoft's ActiveSync, it still supports its own APIs and such open APIs
How to use it?
This is really simple, but after downloading and installing eco on the Evo Official Website
(Disable Outlook during installation and install it with system administrator privileges)
Enable outook, click the Evo page, and press Set Account and add Gmail account information.

Note that because Gmail uses oauth-authorized authentication, ECO will first enable a small browser to log on to and authorize the Gmail account, and then close the browser.

After this is done, any newly added contacts and calendars under the Gmail supervision folder will be synchronized in two directions with Gmail, and any newly added projects on Android phones will be automatically synchronized to outlook.
In addition to the above, this is a set of plug-ins that support standard carddav and caldav.
So apart from Gmail, it seems like a very popular iCloud or Yahoo! And AOL support
Build your own cloud environment
Generally, we do not have this problem.
This is because your contact's calendar is personal data.
But sometimes in the company environment
At this time, it is not appropriate to use gmai to share calendars and contacts with colleagues.
So if this is the case, set up one by yourself.
Similarly, on the Evo website (the following addresses)
Evo Mail Server
Download the main program of the evomail server and complete the settings of the carddav and caldav servers.
We can create our own cloud environment and make all contacts, calendars, and jobs in outlook work on the cloud.
Therefore, if you want to work with contacts, calendars, and jobs on the cloud through outlook
The various software recommended in this article is a good choice.
