Getting the Replicon credentials

Outlook Category to Replicon URI Map

This object is where you configure the name of your categories in Outlook, as well as the Replicon client and task that you want to sync events from that category to.

The Outlook category names are customizable, but the value must match Outlook exactly.

To get the Replicon URIs, you need to do some sniffing in your browser network logs when loading Replicon. A default outlookCategoryToRepliconUriMap with URIs already filled out for a bunch of common categories can be found on wiki here
