AIP / UL Add-In keyboard shortcuts (especially for Outlook)?

Hi all,

 

maybe a stupid question, but many users "complain" that they cannot use shortcuts to classify an Email in Outlook (ProPlus). They prefer to send Emails with ALT + S, but AIP requires now to set a classification label (enforced by policy; it is mandatory to classify all Emails & documents). That's the real pain my users have and I have to deal with the whole day 😉

 

Quick Steps also doesn't provide a "workaround".

 

Any ideas / comments / statement on this please?

 

Thanks & BR

Martin

    MartinZoller Not a stupid question at all, this should work.

    There's a bug in the current version of the client with regards to support for keyboard shortcuts. In theory CTRL-Shift-~ allows you to launch the labeling UI, and then you should be able to tab between labels but the second part is not working. We are looking into releasing a fix for this. 

    Apologies for the inconvenience.

      Thank you Esaggese !

       

      Good to know. But does the shortcut also work for the "old" AIP client or just for the new UL client? We are using 1.48.204.0. I hit CTRL-Shift-~ but nothing happens. So I think this "labeling UI" is only available for Unified Labels, am I right? I understand that we have to wait for the fix anyway.

        MartinZoller Correct, I do not think this was working on the Classic client before. I am still trying to find out about the status of the fix for UL. Will keep you posted once I hear back from engineering.
