Pulse + Microsoft 365

Pulse + Microsoft 365

Microsoft 365 powers the day-to-day work of millions of enterprise teams. Pulse integrates deeply with the M365 ecosystem so your project management workflows live alongside Outlook, Teams, SharePoint, and Excel — not in a separate tab your team forgets to check.

Core Integration Points

Microsoft Teams

The Pulse app for Microsoft Teams brings your project boards, task updates, and deadline alerts directly into Teams channels and direct messages. Pin a Pulse board to any channel so the whole team can see project status without leaving Teams. Use slash commands to create tasks, update statuses, and log time — all from the Teams message bar. Daily digest notifications summarize what moved, what is overdue, and what is due today.

Outlook Calendar Sync

Pulse milestones and sprint deadlines appear in Outlook Calendar automatically. Bidirectional sync means a deadline change in Pulse updates the Outlook event within seconds, and a meeting created in Outlook can be linked back to a Pulse project so action items have a home. Pulse also supports shared Outlook calendars, making it easy to give stakeholders visibility into project timelines without granting them full Pulse access.

Outlook Email Integration

The Pulse add-in for Outlook (available in the Microsoft AppSource marketplace) lets you convert emails into tasks with one click. The original email thread is attached as context, the sender is auto-populated as a stakeholder, and any deadline mentioned in the email can be parsed and set as the task due date. Task status updates are sent back as Outlook notifications.

SharePoint and OneDrive

Attach SharePoint documents and OneDrive files to any Pulse task or project. Pulse always links to the live document — not a snapshot — so teams work from a single source of truth. Document permissions are surfaced inline: if a collaborator lacks access to an attached file, Pulse flags it before it becomes a bottleneck.

Excel Reports

Export Pulse reports directly to Excel with one click. Project managers can export sprint velocity, time logs, and resource allocation data into formatted Excel workbooks ready for executive review. Schedule recurring exports to drop into a SharePoint folder automatically.

Enterprise-Grade Deployment

Pulse for Microsoft 365 supports SSO via Azure Active Directory. IT administrators can deploy the Pulse Teams app and Outlook add-in organization-wide through the Microsoft Admin Center — no individual installs required. Role-based access control in Pulse maps cleanly to Azure AD groups, so your existing permission structure carries over.

Setup

Connect Microsoft 365 from Settings → Integrations in Pulse. Sign in with your Microsoft account, grant the requested permissions, and choose your sync preferences. Full deployment for enterprise accounts takes less than thirty minutes with IT support.

Pulse is listed in the Microsoft AppSource marketplace. Start a free trial or book a demo to see the full M365 integration in action.
