This article will outline how to enable calendar sync between an exchange server user mailbox and a public folder. CiraHub consolidates numerous data sources from multiple platforms ensuring that the information remains consistent across devices and software.

2. Next, select the source type of your contact spoke. To sync an Exchange Server Public Folder, click An Exchange Server and select Public Folder and NEXT (See figure below).
3. Enter your Exchange Server Connector Login, Password, URL, and Exchange Version. If you are running an Exchange Server version dated 2016 or later, always select Exchange 2016 in your connector Settings. Click here to learn how to find your Exchange Server settings. (See figure below).
