How Do I Connect Outlook with LinkedIn?
You can link your LinkedIn and Microsoft work or school accounts if your organization permits it. Once you’ve connected your accounts, you can access your LinkedIn professional network from specific Microsoft applications and services. It allows you to gain insights into things you share in common with individuals you’ve connected with, for example, without leaving Microsoft applications or services.
