(Optional) If the browser where you use Avaya Workspaces blocks third-party cookies, add http://microsoftonline.com/ to the browser whitelist.

For example, in Google Chrome, you can add a URL to the whitelist by going to Settings > Privacy and security and adding an exception for the site. The procedure is similar in Mozilla Firefox.

For more information about adding a URL to the whitelist in Google Chrome, see the Allow or block access to websites section in Google Chrome Help.
