Hello All,

We have a requirement where we need to connect to EXO and create a shared mailbox from a server using Java code. Is something like this possible? if so, can someone please guide me to correct documentation? We currently have java code running PowerShell v2 where the script creates a shared mailbox on premise.

I see in the some documentation that we need to connect to Exchange-online via PowerShell, but not sure how authentication can be done programmatically.

Thanks!

    Are you syncing from on-prem to Exchange Online with AADConnect?
    If so, then what you really want to do is create a remote shared mailbox with your existing code on-prem and not directly in 365.

    For connecting to Exchange Online, use the App-based auth:
