Mac Outlook App View Index
Nov 04, 2019 Microsoft is bringing some much-needed improvements to its Outlook for Mac app. Starting this week, Outlook for Mac beta testers (in the Fast Ring) will be able to.
-->Outlook add-ins are integrations built by third parties into Outlook by using our web-based platform. Outlook add-ins have three key aspects:
- The same add-in and business logic works across desktop (Outlook on Windows and Mac), web (Microsoft 365 and Outlook.com), and mobile.
- Outlook add-ins consist of a manifest, which describes how the add-in integrates into Outlook (for example, a button or a task pane), and JavaScript/HTML code, which makes up the UI and business logic of the add-in.
- Outlook add-ins can be acquired from AppSource or sideloaded by end-users or administrators.
Outlook add-ins are different from COM or VSTO add-ins, which are older integrations specific to Outlook running on Windows. Unlike COM add-ins, Outlook add-ins don't have any code physically installed on the user's device or Outlook client. For an Outlook add-in, Outlook reads the manifest and hooks up the specified controls in the UI, and then loads the JavaScript and HTML. The web components all run in the context of a browser in a sandbox.

The Outlook items that support add-ins include email messages, meeting requests, responses and cancellations, and appointments. Each Outlook add-in defines the context in which it is available, including the types of items and if the user is reading or composing an item.
Note
If you plan to publish your add-in to AppSource and make it available within the Office experience, make sure that you conform to the Commercial marketplace certification policies. For example, to pass validation, your add-in must work across all platforms that support the methods that you define (for more information, see section 1120.3 and the Office Add-in host and availability page).
Extension points
Extension points are the ways that add-ins integrate with Outlook. The following are the ways this can be done:
Add-ins can declare buttons that appear in command surfaces across messages and appointments. For more information, see Add-in commands for Outlook.
An add-in with command buttons on the ribbon
Add-ins can link off regular expression matches or detected entities in messages and appointments. For more information, see Contextual Outlook add-ins.
A contextual add-in for a highlighted entity (an address)
Note
Custom panes have been deprecated so please ensure that you're using a supported extension point.

Mailbox items available to add-ins
Outlook add-ins are available on messages or appointments while composing or reading, but not other item types. Outlook does not activate add-ins if the current message item, in a compose or read form, is one of the following:
Protected by Information Rights Management (IRM) or encrypted in other ways for protection. A digitally signed message is an example since digital signing relies on one of these mechanisms.
A delivery report or notification that has the message class IPM.Report.*, including delivery and Non-Delivery Report (NDR) reports, and read, non-read, and delay notifications.
A draft (does not have a sender assigned to it), or in the Outlook Drafts folder.
A .msg or .eml file which is an attachment to another message.
A .msg or .eml file opened from the file system.
In a shared mailbox, in another user's mailbox, in an archive mailbox, or in a public folder.
Using a custom form.
In general, Outlook can activate add-ins in read form for items in the Sent Items folder, with the exception of add-ins that activate based on string matches of well-known entities. For more information about the reasons behind this, see 'Support for well-known entities' in Match strings in an Outlook item as well-known entities.
