Common Reasons for Error

Your administrator has not allowed users to give consent to apps

If your Microsoft account belongs to an organization, your Microsoft 365 administrator may have disabled user consent for third-party apps. When you try to connect your Outlook email, Microsoft blocks the sign-in and shows an "Approval required" screen for the SalesBlink app, since the permissions SalesBlink needs (send mail, read/write mail, IMAP/SMTP access, calendar access) require admin approval.

To resolve this, forward the following link to your Microsoft 365 administrator and ask them to approve SalesBlink for your organization:

https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/adminconsent?client_id=9d599d5b-b0dc-4d67-8f01-6b8d8528dcd7&redirect_uri=https://run.salesblink.io/api/microsoft&state=admin_consent

1. Your admin opens the link and signs in with their administrator account.
2. Microsoft shows the permissions SalesBlink requests; the admin clicks Accept to grant consent on behalf of the organization.
3. Once approved, go back to SalesBlink and connect your Outlook email again — the sign-in will complete without the approval error.

Note: Only a Microsoft 365 admin can open this link and grant consent. Regular users will see the same "Approval required" error until the admin approves.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I get the error "Sender Already Exists"?

Unlike Google, where you can be logged into multiple accounts simultaneously, Outlook only allows one account to be logged in at a time by default. If you are already logged into an Outlook account and try to connect or reconnect a different email address, you will see this error.

To resolve this, open a new Incognito or Private browsing window and try connecting your Outlook email sender again.

How many emails can I send using Outlook?

We recommend sending 30–50 emails per day per email sender, regardless of whether you use Outlook, Google Workspace, or another provider. Staying within this range protects your sender reputation and deliverability.
