For all versions of Unity Connection, when you are using Exchange 2019 or Exchange 2016 as a calendar application, you can
configure Unity Connection to allow users to do several meeting-specific tasks using the phone, for example, to hear a list
of the participants for a meeting, send a message to the meeting organizer, or send a message to the meeting participants.
Meeting organizers can also cancel a meeting. In addition, if users are using Microsoft Outlook, they can hear a list of upcoming
meetings, and accept or decline meeting invitations.
Unity Connection also enables users to import Exchange contacts
using the Messaging Assistant web tool. The contact information can then be
used in rules that users create in the Cisco Unity Connection Personal Call
Transfer Rules web tool and when users place outgoing calls using voice
commands.
Unity Connection can play Exchange email over the phone using
Text to Speech.
You can also synchronize Unity Connection and Exchange mailboxes
so that Unity Connection voice messages appear in the Outlook inbox. This
feature is commonly known as single inbox.
For more information on supported versions of Microsoft Exchange for accessing calendar information, importing personal contacts,
accessing email, and configuring mailbox synchronization, see the “Requirements for using Unified Messaging Features” section of the System Requirements Guide for Cisco Unity Connection Release 15, available at https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/voice_ip_comm/connection/15/requirements/b_15cucsysreqs.html.
