Our integration with Mimecast utilizes their V2 API, which introduces significant updates, particularly in the authentication mechanism.

​
Creating a Mimecast connection​

Using Access Token​

To create the connection you need:

  • A Client ID

Client ID and Secret are returned when the Mimecast registration process is complete.
