How to sign in to Outlook on the web
Outlook on the web is the web-based version of Outlook used by organizations and it's what you use to access the email, calendar, and contacts associated with your work or school account via a web browser. Your work or school account is typically assigned to you by someone in your organization.
Note: Outlook.com (or Hotmail.com) is the
web-based version of Outlook which uses a personal Microsoft account such as an
Outlook.com or Hotmail.com account to sign in.
Sign in to Outlook on the web from a web browser with your work or school account
- Open a web browser and go to Microsoft365.com. (Or sign in directly at outlook.office365.com.)

If you successfully signed in, but not sure what you're signed in with, select the Account manager in Outlook. If you're not signed in with the account you want, select Sign out and start the process again, or select Sign in with a different account and follow the prompts using the correct account.
