OutboundConnectorReport report

The OutboundConnectorReport REST URI returns a list of the organization's configured Office 365 outbound email connectors (also known as "Send Connectors"). Use this report with the ServiceDeliveryReport report to help verify, monitor, and troubleshoot Mailflow and connector configuration issues. This report doesn't have a time-duration like other reports, but instead reports the currently configured outbound (send) connectors. For more information, see Exchange Server 2013 Connectors.

Input parameters and report output columns

The [In/Out] indicators in the fields table have the following meanings:

  • Fields marked [In] in the fields table are primarily intended for use in $filter=, $orderby= and other query options that restrict which entries the report returns. Fields marked [In] in the fields table can be included the $select= option, and they will appear in the report entries, but they will contain no useful data.

  • Fields marked [In/Out] in the fields table can be used in both column selection ($select=) and entry restriction ($filter= and $orderby=) options. When you include one of these fields in the $select= option, they will appear in the report entries, and will contain useful data when it is available.

Compatibility
