To install the on-premise, Data Center + EWS based version of the Meetical Meetings Outlook Add-in, try the following approach. If you are on Confluence Cloud and Microsoft 365, please use the Outlook Add-in available in the Microsoft AppSource Store.

You get the XML file from Confluence Admin → “Meetical Configuration”.

To install an Outlook Add-in from an XML manifest file using PowerShell, you can use the New-OfficeWebAddIn cmdlet provided by the OfficeWebAddInManagement module. However, this module isn't installed by default, so you may need to install it first.

...

  1. Install the OfficeWebAddInManagement module:
    Open PowerShell with administrative privileges and run the following command:

    Code Block
    languagepowershell
    Install-Module -Name OfficeWebAddInManagement -Scope CurrentUser
  2. Import the module:
    After the module is installed, import it using:

    Code Block
    languagepowershell
    Import-Module OfficeWebAddInManagement
  3. Install the Outlook Add-in from the XML manifest file:
    Use the New-OfficeWebAddIn cmdlet to install the add-in. Provide the path to the XML manifest file as an argument.

    Here’s the syntax:

    Code Block
    languagepowershell
    $manifestPath = "C:\\path\\to\\your\\manifest.xml"
    New-OfficeWebAddIn -Manifest $manifestPath -Mailbox (Get-Mailbox -Identity "user@domain.com")

    Replace "C:\\path\\to\\your\\manifest.xml" with the actual path to your XML file and "user@domain.com" with the email address of the mailbox where you want to install the add-in.

Example Script

Code Block
languagepowershell
# Install the module (run as admin)
Install-Module -Name OfficeWebAddInManagement -Scope CurrentUser

# Import the module
Import-Module OfficeWebAddInManagement

# Define the path to the XML manifest file
$manifestPath = "C:\path\to\your\manifest.xml"

# Define the mailbox (user email address)
$mailbox = Get-Mailbox -Identity "user@domain.com"

# Install the Outlook Add-in
New-OfficeWebAddIn -Manifest $manifestPath -Mailbox $mailbox

Note

  • Ensure that you have the necessary permissions to install add-ins for the specified mailbox.

  • This script assumes that you are running it in an environment where the Exchange Online PowerShell module is available and you have already connected to your Exchange Online environment.
