<aside> š” The Flusso365 Agent is a Windows Service designed to send e-mails via an internal mail relay to the Flusso365 mailbox. At the same time it will try to notify the Flusso365 API so Flusso365 can check whether a mail was sent successfully or not. The Flusso365 solution is designed to monitor outages of Microsoft Exchange.

The agent comes with an MSI package to make installation possible via GUI or headless via CLI.
You will be initially greeted by the installation wizard. Click next to start the installation procedure.

Choose an installation directory. By default this will be the path displayed here.
To get basic functionality working, you need to enter a valid tenant id, an SMTP server with a valid port (delimited by ā:ā) and a from address. If have authentication on your internal SMTP relay enabled, enter the username and password and check the āEnable SMTP Authenticationā checkbox.
After configuration is complete, you may now install the agent.
After successfully installing the agent, you need to start the Windows Service manually. Since there can be errors in the configuration, automating this process is not possible as the installation will fail when the service is unable to start.
Look for āFlusso365 Agentā in Windows Services and start the service. If it fails to start, check the log file inside the installation directory called āagent.logā for further information and how to debug the configuration.
Installation via CLI is sometimes the preferred method when wanting to distribute packages via a package management system or when a headless server is used.
