Publish an Excel Add-in by just submitting the add-in manifest to Microsoft Marketplace
I am working on Excel Add-in built using the react template. We are planning to host the add-in code on our domain and update the manifest to point to the URL for our domain. Can I just submit the add-in manifest to Microsoft to publish it in Microsoft Marketplace?Access to subAddress Property of Hyperlinks in Powerpoint Javascript API
Recently my company has me developing a Taskpane Add-in for Powerpoint using the Javascript API. Right now the API is still missing a 'subAddress' property for the Powerpoint.Hyperlink class. My heart's deepest longing is to add a slide to a presentation with existing slide-to-slide hyperlinks, check those hyperlinks for discrepancies between the slide ID and the text (ie: a Hyperlink reading '13' that now links to slide 14), and finally correct the text to the subaddress ID of the hyperlink in Javascript. It is my burning passion to do this for every hyperlink in my presentation with the push of a button. In the interest of all mankind I would ask that the 'subAddress' property of the hyperlinks be available for use in addition to the 'address' and 'screenTip' properties which now exist. To the microsoft dev who can grant me this boon I offer half my kingdom. Truly there is no dev more favoured than thee.
Shortcuts appearing when using Option+arrow in Outlook on Chrome in Mac
luse Outlook on Chrome in my MacBook Pro. While typing an email, though, if I use Option tarrow left or right (to go back or forth between words), after a few words, the shortcut letters for the menus pop up, and stop what I'm doing. (See image.) It doesn't happen in any other window on Chrome. So it's not a Chrome thing. It's only when Outlook 365 is loaded. (Don't know if it happens in other 365 apps, as I only use Outlook, really.) Anyone experienced that? And, if so, is there a solution? I tried Outlook 365's setting, but nothing there. Thanks!Import Contact List

I have tried it with and without column headers. there name format is First Last. Sugestions appreciated.
Optimizing Microsoft 365 Licenses Using Behavior Data (E3/E1/F3)
Hi everyone, We are currently working on a Microsoft 365 license optimization initiative and would appreciate insights from the community and Microsoft experts. Our approach focuses on two main areas: (1) Revoking licenses for inactive users, and (2) Reviewing active users to ensure their assigned license (E3, E1, or F3) aligns with actual usage and collaboration needs. From a data perspective, we are leveraging Microsoft 365 usage signals such as Teams activity, Outlook email interactions, meetings, and SharePoint/OneDrive collaboration. While usage reports provide raw metrics, we are looking for guidance on how these signals should be interpreted and combined in a meaningful and fair way. Specifically, we would like to understand: (1) Which usage metrics best represent user collaboration behavior? (2) Are there any recommended thresholds or patterns that help distinguish light, standard, and heavy collaboration users to map E3, E1, or F3? Any best practices, references, or real-world experiences would be greatly appreciated. I'm sorry if this is the wrong forums to ask for. Thanks in advance for sharing your insights.Block users from creating Public Microsoft Teams groups
Hi Community, Is already know that Teams creation in Microsoft Teams is related to O365 groups, and if you would like to block users from creating teams, you need to block them from creating O365 groups, right? Ok, right. But what if we only want to block the possibility to create public teams, but still allow them to create private ones? Would that be possible? The answer is YES. And the solution is Microsoft Purview. You'll need to create a new Label/Label Policy under Information Protection. We'll configure the Label for the scope "Site, UnifiedGroup", with group settings as "Private" and applying the label automatically. Then we can configure/publish the Label Policy as mandatory for all the users, some of them or, as in my example, to a DL that contains all the users that I would like to block. Once published, depending on your tenant size, it can take up to 24 hours to propagate. In my test environment it was quite immediate. Now, the users added to the DL that I configured in the Label Policy can still create teams, but not Public ones ( and can't change the label ) as that option is greyed out. The answer is YES. And the solution is Microsoft Purview.
Cannot update M365-Mac to 16.105.1?
Anyone else having an issue with this? Current Channel-Preview update (only 25-30MB per update) is failing with Outlook and Word (previously, PPT and XLS were fine). It takes forever to update ... then fails. Note that another computer which previously (early last week?) was fine. "Solution" is changing to beta channel (which comes with risk) to bypass and go direct to 16.106 (which updates fine/super fast; under 2 minutes). Doesn't matter internet connection and attempted to do this over a period of 4 days - tried hotel (duh), hotspot (less duh - 250-600mbps), Starlink (400+ Mbps) and home fiber (2Gbps).
