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.

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.

Here’s a step-by-step guide:

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

    Install-Module -Name OfficeWebAddInManagement -Scope CurrentUser

  2. Import the module:
    After the module is installed, import it using:

    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:

    $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

# 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.

If you encounter issues or if the OfficeWebAddInManagement module is not available, you might need to use the Exchange Online Management module or consider alternative methods for add-in deployment, such as using the Office 365 Admin Center.
