Outlook - Restrict installtion of add-in's
VasilMichevYes. We are still able to add them on both. On the old OWA experience, the option to add them is missing in Options/General/Manage add ins, but when you click the settings cog on top right, you get an option there that shows 'Manage add-ins'. This brings up the new experience.
I've been playing with this and so far I'm having no luck either. I'll give it some more time to make sure the role changes have propagated and will probe the Exchange folks if it's still not working.
Thank you Vasil. We left it for over five days and it's still the same.
I also now need to figure out how to remove the add-in's that have been added by the users since it stopped working.
No luck, so I'd agree that it's broken. Open a support ticket and report it.
As for managing already installed apps, Get-App/Remove-App should do the trick.
This is why I don't bother raising support tickets. This is the reply we got:
"So after further research, there is no way to restrict a user from downloading Outlook add in's from OWA. This is an ongoing issue, but I cannot find any answer online as to when this feature will be worked on. you can create a user voice on the subject and vote on it. Right now this is all that I have been able to find. "
They seem to think this is a requested feature and not actually a broken one!!
