Obtain harmon.ie 365 installation package
- Open the harmon.ie customer portal.
- To log in, select one of these options:
- Click Sign in with Microsoft. Upon the first login attempt, this will trigger an activation email. Click the Authenticate Your Email Address link in the email to continue. Note: This option should be enabled by an administrator.
- Use the username and password you received in the harmon.ie Order Fulfillment email.
- If you don’t have credentials, click Retrieve password or contact harmon.ie support.
- Select the Download tab then click Download harmon.ie 365
- You are prompted to log in to your Microsoft 365 account to grant harmon.ie permission to access Microsoft 365 locations on behalf of the user. Accept requested permissions.
Important note: harmon.ie only asks for delegated permissions, not for application permissions. As such, harmon.ie users can never access SharePoint content they are not authorized to view. - After you accept the permissions, the download process will begin. A zip file is downloaded for you. Once extracted, you will see 3 files:
- HarmonieSharePointSetup.Ent.licensed.Teams.exe
- HarmonieSharePointSetup.x64.Ent.licensed.Teams.msi (for 64 bit Office)
- HarmonieSharePointSetup.x86.Ent.licensed.Teams.msi (for 32 bit Office)
If you can’t grant harmon.ie consent, here are some things you can do:
- Ask your M365 administrator to grant permissions and try to install again.
- Try our harmon.ie for SharePoint edition. Note that this version contains a limited feature set, with no Microsoft Teams integration.
- Contact harmon.is support if you have specific questions.
The harmon.ie license key is embedded in the MSI files. The executable file is running the MSI file that matches your Office version (64 or 32 bit).
Note: Once downloaded, if you do not wish to customize the harmon.ie installation file, you may distribute the zip file internally to all users.

Read Customize the harmon.ie installation to learn how.
Configure email header mapping
email header mapping is used to map email headers (From, To, CC, Subject, Date, etc.) to SharePoint document properties, when uploading emails to SharePoint.
It is recommended to set automatic email header mapping in new harmon.ie installations, both in Teams and in SharePoint locations, as explained in automatic email header mapping.
Alternatively, configure the SharePoint document library as explained in Map email headers to SharePoint metadata and Set mail content type when uploading email messages to SharePoint.
Install harmon.ie
For a small group of users:
- Distribute the installation package you downloaded from your harmon.ie customer portal.
- Send a .reg file containing the harmon.ie provisioning keys you want to set to all users. Instruct users to double-click the reg file in order to apply it.
- Instruct users to install harmon.ie by running the executable or the MSI file that matches their Office version.
For a large group of users, or for the whole organization:
Whether you have customized the harmon.ie installation file or not, install the .msi file for all users, as explained in Install harmon.ie centrally and remotely.
If you are using deployment tools such as SCCM or Intune, make sure to take into account in their detection rules that they should pickup the correct harmon.ie installation package according to the Office version (64 or 32 bit) on the target machine:
- HarmonieSharePointSetup.x86.Ent.licensed[.Teams].msi for 32-bit Office.
- HarmonieSharePointSetup.x64.Ent.licensed[.Teams].msi for 64-bit Office.
