We are currently using Google Workspace including gmail but are in the process of setting up Office 365 but have noticed that when sharing office 365 files the other user never receives the email notification. How do we setup Entra so that all emails are sent through Google?

What is your goal here? Are you migrating away from Google Workspace?

Where are you MX records pointing? Google or Microsoft?

So you’re mixing things up a bit with Google Workspace for your emails and moving to Office 365 for other stuff. To fix this, you need to tweak some settings in Entra, which is part of Office 365. The idea is to tell Entra to use your Google Workspace email for sending out notifications.

Here are some steps:

  1. Check Your Email Settings in Office 365: Make sure that the email addresses you’re using in Office 365 match the ones you have in Google Workspace. This helps in making sure the notifications go to the right place.

  2. Configure Entra: Dive into Entra’s settings. You’re looking to set up something called SMTP relay. This is basically a way to tell Entra, “Hey, use this specific email service (in your case, Google Workspace) to send out all your notifications.”

  3. Update DNS Records: This part’s a bit technical. You might need to update some DNS settings for your domain to make sure emails sent from Office 365 but using Google’s email system don’t get marked as spam.

  4. Test It Out: Once you’ve made these changes, do a test run. Share a file from Office 365 and see if the notification pops up as it should in your Gmail.

I am not sue where you are at @jasonbaxter8979 ​ but you can create a mail routing with Google Workspace through Office 365 as shown on he below guide.

But you will have to look at the Office 365 Migration to Microsoft 365
