Managing cloud-only shared mailboxes

A cloud-only shared mailbox is a type of user mailbox in Exchange Online that you can use when multiple people need access to the same mailbox to read and send messages. In an organization, functions such as technical support or company information use shared mailboxes with a generic email address, for example, info@company.com. After you create a shared mailbox, you must assign permissions to all users that you want to have access to the shared mailbox.

In the Active Roles Web Interface, you can create, manage or delete cloud-only shared mailboxes in Directory Management > Tree> Azure > <azure-tenant-name> > Shared Mailboxes. Shared mailboxes created in the Active Roles Web Interface are synchronized to the Exchange admin center, where you can find them in Teams & Groups > Shared mailboxes.

For more information about shared mailboxes, see Shared mailboxes in the Microsoft 365 documentation.

Creating a new shared mailbox

You can create a new shared mailbox with the Create New Shared Mailbox option of the Active Roles Web Interface.
