How to roll out the add-in for all users
The Pronestor Office Add-in can be installed either by the users or centralized deployment on behalf of individual users, user groups, or the entire corporation.
If you are users are to install the add-in themselves - please follow the section "Manuel installation" below. If deployment is to happen centralized on behalf of multiple users - please follow the section "Centralized deployment of add-in".
Centralized deployment of add-in
Require O365 administrator permissions.
- Open Microsoft 365 admin center in Office 365
- Click settings in the left side menu and choose Integrated Apps
- Choose "Add-ins" - in the top section where it refers to "Line of business apps"
- Save manifest file from your Planner site [Administration → Settings → Other Settings]
- Choose "Deploy add-in" - which will guide you on how to deploy the add-in to Outlook users in your organization
- Select "Deploy custom add-in" and choose "Upload custom apps"
- Choose "I have a FILE for the manifest file" and load the manifest the Pronestor add-in manifest
- Click "Upload"
- Please follow the rest of the steps onscreen to choose users who should have the add-in install
We do recommend following the recommendation by Microsoft - that is, choose a small set of users to validate the installation and distribution before, distributing it corporate-wide.
Please be aware that the deployment can take up to 24 hours for Microsoft to complete the distribution.
For further information on centralized deployment - please refer to the following guide from Microsoft
