In this blog I am going to show you how we can link the ‘List’ to ‘Outlook’ in SharePoint. We already have following list in SharePoint.
The following kinds of SharePoint 2013 lists can only be linked to Outlook:
1- Calendar
2- Contacts
3- Tasks
4- Document Libraries
5- Discussion Board
6- List
To archive a SharePoint Calendar list to Outlook, follow these steps:
1- Browse to the SharePoint Calendar to be archived.
2- Click the CALENDAR tab, and then click Connect to Outlook.
3- On the Actions menu, click Connect to Outlook, and in the Outlook dialog box, click
yes. The Calendar is saved to Outlook.
To archive SharePoint Document Libraries to Outlook, follow these steps:
1- Browse to the SharePoint Document Library.
2- On the ribbon, click LIBRARY, and then click Connect to Outlook.
3- In the Outlook dialog box, click yes. The Library is saved to Outlook.
Repeat the above process to link another available list like (task, contacts, discussion board and custom list).
