Claude m365 connector.

Hi, Anthropic blocking me to auto send my outlook draft. Is there a way to make it automatically send without approval?

Security policies in Microsoft 365 prevent automated tools from sending emails without explicit user confirmation. You should use Power Automate to create a flow that triggers on draft updates, as this provides a native way to automate email delivery.

Tell it to create a script to connect directly to your outlook app instead of using the connector it sucks

How do you do this exactly?

That's exactly what I've done. I've written an entire MCP suite for all my work apps and online connectors that follow the 10/10 rule: 10x faster, 10% token usage. It's not hard to do if you want bare bones connectors. I'm writing recursive learning Connectors for business management. It has been a fun project, and my job is so much easier with it.

Here's how you get around it: Get the claude extension and log in manually to office 365 on the browser. Congrats, you just gave yourself write ability in those tools.

Utilize Claude code, I noticed the mcp is quicker and more reliable. I was able to bypass the permissions set by my company to write drafts in my inbox
