Make sure to take a backup of Application ribbon/Entity before touching the customizations. Also you need to click the context menu “customize button” / “customize command” if you are customizing OOB button like Assign to retain the existing Rules/behavior & to add your custom rules/behavior.

To update the icons, you have to upload svg icon in each custom entity. And make sure to update the modern image in ribbon button definition.

Buttons in a view in Dynamics 365

I am new with Dynamics 365 and are not sure of how I can achieve this.
I am looking into having some buttons in a view.
Maybe a view isn't the best way of doing it, but what I want to do is to have a list of records connected to the logged in user (similar to a view)
But on each row/record I want to have multiple buttons. These buttons can be like 'Complete' (Changes status on task and updates the view) , 'Send email'(Starts a workflow) and so on.
What are some of the ways of doing this? Either with Javascript/C#/plugin or something else.
You cannot add buttons in views/subgrids directly.
That’s when we add ribbon/command bar buttons using Ribbon workbench usually.
Create a Workflow Short Cut Ribbon Button (No Code Solution!)
Update:
There is a PowerApps Components Framework (PCF - preview) coming out soon, then we can build custom grid control with the layout/buttons we want.
This can be achieved with RibbonWorkbench. My answer does not differ much with #arun vinoth answer but just added few explanation lines.

If you look at view below where I have selected number of contact and then I have a Button at top "Nominieren" which is shown and clicking on it will perform whatever action is needed.
There will be java-script on click of button, from Java script you could call Action or workflow or perform operation in Java script itself.

Now when you look at image below I have no contact selected and it does not show button on Ribbon.
It might be possible. I haven't tried this but you can write JavaScript for a view column now (since CRM 2016).
If you go to a view you can double click on a view column to view its properties. There are two properties you might be interested in:

Here's a link to an MS page that explains how to use these options to add an icon. It might be possible to create a clickable button which uses CRM's WebApi to perform some actions: Docs # Microsoft

How do I create a custom Edit Contact form in Outlook 2016?

I'd like to be able to select a contact, and, either via right-click or a ribbon button, "Edit Advanced", which would take me to a form similar to the existing Edit Contact form but with some custom fields.
I'm thinking C# VSTO but I'm open to any solution that works.
Thanks in advance
What you need to do is change the MessageClass property of existing contacts (IPM.Contact) to the value of your custom form (e.g. IPM.Contact.Foo). So you will need to write a macro or add-in that will change this for all or selected items in any given folder.
There's a sample and tool available here: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/201087/how-to-update-existing-items-in-an-outlook-folder-to-use-a-new-custom
