To use the
BlackBerry Gatekeeping Service
 with
Microsoft Office 365
, you must configure the mobile device access policy in
Microsoft Office 365
 to quarantine devices by default.
Configure permissions for gatekeeping.
If your organization’s default access level for
Exchange ActiveSync
 is set to allow, and you have users setup and successfully synchronizing their devices, you must make sure that these users have a personal exemption or device rule associated to their user account or device before you set the default access level to quarantine. If they do not, then they are quarantined and their devices do not synchronize until they are allowed by
BlackBerry UEM
.
