Windows / Outlook

Sync SilentSuite with Microsoft Outlook through the SilentSuite Bridge.

Prerequisites

1. The SilentSuite Bridge running on your PC.
2. Your account credentials from the bridge's web UI at http://localhost:37358/.

Microsoft Outlook (with CalDav Synchronizer)

Outlook does not support CalDAV natively. The free, open-source CalDav Synchronizer plugin adds full CalDAV/CardDAV support.

Install the Plugin

1. Download the latest release from GitHub.
2. Close Outlook.
3. Run the installer (.msi file).
4. Re-open Outlook. You should see a CalDav Synchronizer tab in the ribbon.

Add a Calendar Sync Profile

1. Click the CalDav Synchronizer tab in the Outlook ribbon.
2. Click Synchronization Profiles.
3. Click the + (Add) button and select Generic CalDAV/CardDAV.
4. Give the profile a name (e.g. "SilentSuite Calendar").
5. Under Server Settings, enter:
   • DAV URL: http://localhost:37358/your@email.com/
   • Username: your account email
   • Password: your account password
6. Click Test or discover settings. The plugin will find your calendars.
7. Select the Outlook folder to sync with (or create a new calendar folder).
8. Click OK to save.

Add a Contacts Sync Profile

1. Open Synchronization Profiles again.
2. Click + and select Generic CalDAV/CardDAV.
3. Name it (e.g. "SilentSuite Contacts").
4. Enter the same server settings as above.
5. Click Test or discover settings.
6. Select your Outlook Contacts folder as the target.
7. Click OK.

Sync

Click Synchronize now in the CalDav Synchronizer ribbon tab, or wait for the automatic sync interval (default: 30 minutes). You can adjust the interval in each profile's settings.

Running the Bridge at Startup

To run the SilentSuite Bridge automatically on Windows startup, see the DAV bridge guide for auto-start configuration.

Troubleshooting

Outlook CalDav Synchronizer not syncing

1. Open the CalDav Synchronizer tab and click Status.
2. Check for error messages in the sync log.
3. Make sure the bridge is running: open http://localhost:37358/ in your browser.
4. Verify the DAV URL includes your email: http://localhost:37358/your@email.com/.
