You can test whether your Autodiscover service is working correctly in either of two ways as follows: First, try to connect to the Autodiscover service using your web browser. If you can connect and see the Autodiscover page, that means the service is running and accessible.

• In PowerShell, type or copy and paste the following command and hit Enter:

Test-OutlookWebServices -identity: user@example.com –MailboxCredential (Get-Credential)

Provide a valid email address and password when prompted for credentials. Check that all items in the result display Success. If not, your Exchange server configuration is incorrect.

• Click the Test button.
• After the test is finished, click on the “Log” tab.
• Log in to see your search history on different browsers and computers.On the Log tab, look for a line which says “Autodiscover to [Exchange Server URL] Succeeded.” If you don’t see this line, then your Exchange server configuration is probably wrong.
