Installed Excel v1902 on March 4, But No "Ideas for Excel". Why?

Are there components needed that my company doesn't provide?

Sergei, I attached a PNG showing the error. I'm referring to our Excel Online to demonstrate the availability of this feature in our tenant. I suspect that our proxies are not set properly for use within our firewall. I have a service ticket opened for our MS Office support team.

According to the release notes for Excel version 1902, this feature is available now. See https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/officeupdates/monthly-channel-2019.

Hi Mark,

Sorry for some delay with answer. I didn't find what exactly your error in Excel Online means. In any case new functionality could exist in Excel Online and not in Excel Desktop. As for the release notes that only means what the code with such new functionality is included into Excel desktop starting from that build. But that doesn't mean it will be switched on as soon as you upgraded on that build.
