Open the Office 365 Exchange Administration Console and go to Recipients > Migration > More > Migration endpoints and click on the plus sign to add a new endpoint.
Select the type of migration endpoint (Outlook Anywhere) and enter the details requested:

- Account with privileges – usually a Domain Administrator, but it can be another user, in which case you must assign permissions as specified here
- The privileged account you specify will be used to autodiscover the connection settings and test access to the mailbox specified above.
Click next and verify that the correct details have been populated in the next dialogue box:
Now that the endpoint has been tested you just need to define values for the number of concurrent migrations and supply a descriptive name for the endpoint.
