what is ews url

EWS URL usually means the Exchange Web Services URL for a Microsoft Exchange or Outlook account. A common format is https://mail.domain.com/EWS/Exchange.asmx, but the exact address depends on your server or Microsoft 365 setup.

What it is

EWS stands for Exchange Web Services. It is the endpoint apps use to connect to Exchange for mail, calendar, contacts, and similar data.

Typical format

A common on-premises or hosted Exchange URL looks like:

html

https://<mail-server>/EWS/Exchange.asmx

For Microsoft 365 or Exchange Online, the exact URL can vary by tenant and configuration, so the default-looking format does not always work.

How people usually find it

• Check the Exchange server’s settings.
• Use the Exchange Management Shell on an on-premises server.
• Sometimes the email provider or admin gives it directly.

Note

Microsoft has announced deprecation of EWS in Exchange Online, with disablement planned for October 2026 and a final shutdown date in April 2027.
