Adding an alias for office365 user(s) Synchronized using ADSync

Brass Contributor

I am trying to add an alias for users synchronized with AD using ADSync. Adding SMTP and smtp in ProxyAddress attribute is not working; receiving Sync errors (removed automatically).

 

Any assistance would be helpful.

What does the error say exactly? If the alias is already configured on another object in the cloud, you will receive a duplicate attribute error.
You can try adding the alias directly on the cloud object via the following cmdlet:

Set-Mailbox email address removed for privacy reasons -WindowsEmailAddress email address removed for privacy reasons

This will add the email address removed for privacy reasons alias to the mailbox, while preserving the old one as secondary.
