Extend OpenAPI to support Outlook Plugin
Developed by 2BIT Digital GmbH — your Swiss Odoo partner for payroll, accounting, eCommerce, manufacturing and custom business solutions.
Overview
Extend OpenAPI to support Outlook Plugin
This module provides a REST API for the Outlook Addon with Azure AD token authentication, replacing the traditional Odoo API keys.
Why You Need This Module
This module is for teams that need Outlook add-ins to call Odoo through Azure AD bearer tokens instead of classic API keys.
It centralizes token validation, CORS handling and Outlook-specific routes so the add-in can work across CRM, accounting, sales, projects, helpdesk and mail workflows.
What This Module Solves
- Uses Microsoft Access Tokens instead of API keys
- Enables cross-origin requests from Outlook Addon
- Supports all required endpoints for CRM, Sales, Projects, Helpdesk, etc
- JWT token validation with Microsoft's public keys
Key Features
- Uses Microsoft Access Tokens instead of API keys
- Enables cross-origin requests from Outlook Addon
- Supports all required endpoints for CRM, Sales, Projects, Helpdesk, etc
- JWT token validation with Microsoft's public keys
- Dedicated token bootstrap and token validation endpoints
How It Works
- Outlook first requests a Microsoft access token through the technical authentication endpoint.
- Every business endpoint validates the Azure AD bearer token before executing the requested Odoo action.
- CORS preflight requests are answered so the Outlook add-in can call Odoo from Microsoft-hosted origins.
- The module exposes dedicated routes for CRM leads, invoices, sales orders, partners, projects, tasks, helpdesk tickets, mails and attachments.

Authentication flow
These live responses show the two authentication endpoints the Outlook add-in relies on: token bootstrap and bearer-token validation.
API guardrails
Business endpoints refuse unauthenticated requests and respond to Outlook preflight requests with the required CORS headers.
Endpoint coverage
The installed module extends Odoo with Outlook-specific routes across CRM, partners, accounting, sales, projects and helpdesk.
