3. Click Next.
4. When prompted, log in with your Office 365 Global Administrator account.

9. Click Next to display Directory extensions:

12. Click the Configure button to start the configuration. By default the tick-box to start synchronization is select, so azure AD should synchronize immediately.

14. Click Exit.
15. Log into Exclaimer Cloud (portal.exclaimer.com) and perform a manual data synchronization (for instructions, see the solution in this article), to ensure that the data is synchronized with Exclaimer.
If you have already completed Exclaimer's Additional AD Attributes configuration, the attributes should be available as fields in the signature designer.
If you have not yet completed the Additional AD Attributes configuration, you will need to do so.
Notes
