I'm trying to set up automatic updates for Office on our users' workstations, and I need to know which Microsoft domains we should whitelist on our firewall to ensure everything works smoothly. Any guidance would be appreciated!

It's pretty outdated to block specific domains in today's cloud-centric environment. Your firewall vendor likely has a comprehensive guide to help you allow Office 365 access. Check that out!
You can find the necessary domains in Microsoft's documentation, especially in their learning resources and white papers. Check out the link to their official guide for a detailed list of ports and domains to whitelist for Microsoft 365.
Thank you for that!
If your firewall has a "Whitelist Whatever Microsoft" feature, just flip that on. Or consider using a dynamically updated host object to simplify things. Makes managing updates a breeze!
Thank you. That was easy. 🙂
Yep - I'm testing this out now. Thank you!
