new Outlook profile creation with script

Question

I am in an Exchange 2010/Office 365 migration project. I'm working on Exchange 2010/Office 365 migration. In test environment where I successfully migrated the mail boxes with cutover migration to the cloud.

The next step would be the development of a script, which should create the new profile for the Outlook 2013 and Outlook 2016 clients. I found a script, which creates the necessary registry components, but the Outlook doesn’t start.

Would you please post the script you've tried and Outlook's error. — Mikhail Kholodkov, Jun 01 '18 at 13:40
What kind of script are you using? Are you creating a PRF file? — Dmitry Streblechenko, Jun 01 '18 at 14:47

There are several way to create a new profile:

Build a .prf file with the desired settings and then run Outlook with the /importprf command-line switch to load and process the profile information from that file. See How to create an Outlook Profile File (*.PRF)
Extended MAPI provides the IProfAdmin interface which allows you programmatically create a profile without user interaction. See How to create MAPI profiles without installing Outlook for more information.
Use third-party utilities for creating profiles. I guess all of them will be built on top of the IProfAdmin interface.
