Follow these instructions to add your UCI Gmail account to Microsoft Outlook for Mac. NOTE: You must run a current version (Outlook 365, Outlook 2021, or Outlook 2019) which supports Modern Authentication/OAuth2.
NOTE: During the setup you may see an offer to sync your UCI Gmail, contacts, and calendar to the Microsoft Cloud for a 'better experience'. This is optional and OIT is neither recommending nor discouraging the service. There is a link to a Microsoft web page with more information about this service.
