Unlinking Google from microsoft

Question

How do I unlink google from Microsoft/Outlook? Thank you.

Answer 1

Hi!

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A forum.

If you’ve linked your Google account to Microsoft Outlook (new Outlook or web), here’s how.

Open Outlook

Click Settings (Gear icon)

Go to Accounts → Email accounts

Find your Gmail account

Click Remove

This disconnects Gmail from Outlook.

If there will be any removal request that you need assistance with let me know.

Answer 2

To unlink Google data from Microsoft apps, use the app or service where the Google account is connected and remove it there. Examples from the context:

In Microsoft Teams (free) on desktop (prior to May 2024):

1. Open Microsoft Teams (free).
2. Select Settings and more > Settings.
3. Select Privacy.
4. Under Sync accounts, select Remove next to From Google.
   • This also disconnects and removes synced Google contacts.

In Microsoft Teams (free) on mobile (prior to May 2024):

1. Tap profile picture > Setting.
2. Tap Privacy.
3. Under Synced accounts, tap Remove next to From Google.
   • This also disconnects and removes synced Google contacts.

If Google is linked as a sign-in or alias for a Microsoft account, manage sign-in options at Manage how you sign in to Microsoft (for example, to stop using a Gmail address as a sign-in method).

If Gmail is added in classic Outlook and causing issues, Google access for “Microsoft apps & services” can be removed from the Google account, and related OAuth2 credentials can be deleted from Windows Credential Manager as described in the workaround.
