I try to make an add-in command button to only be visible when there are attachments. Is it possible?
I expected I could add a "Rule" node to the "Control" node but it cannot be done:
<Control xsi:type="Button" id="hButton2">
<Label resid="hButton2Label" />
<Supertip>
<Title resid="hButton2SupertipT" />
<Description resid="hButton2SupertipD" />
</Supertip>
<Icon>
<bt:Image size="16" resid="h-button2-icon-16" />
<bt:Image size="32" resid="h-button2-icon-32" />
<bt:Image size="80" resid="h-button2-icon-80" />
</Icon>
<Action xsi:type="ShowTaskpane">
<SourceLocation resid="hSourceLocation2"/>
</Action>
<Rule xsi:type="ItemHasAttachment" /> <-------------------- won't work
</Control>
The Rule element is only applicable to the CustomPane extension point and can't be defined in a Control element: https://dev.office.com/docs/add-ins/outlook/manifests/define-add-in-commands. See also: https://dev.office.com/docs/add-ins/outlook/manifests/activation-rules

I am developing an add-in for Outlook. My manifest installs without problems in Outlook for the web, but when I try to install the manifest in Outlook for Mac (v16.43), it appears to succeed, but after closing the add-ins window and re-opening it, the add-in has disappeared.
I have generated some logs from Outlook, and see this error:
04/12/2020 14:29:13 Unexpected Manifest Issue encountered while parsing manifest,
add-in ID : <id>, Location : Error at element "Action" :
Add-in manifest parsing encountered an unexpected child node, Line=90, CharPosition=16
The relevant parts of the manifest are below. The Action element referred to in the error is the one in the MobileFormFactor section. If I remove the MobileFormFactor section, then the manifest installs successfully.

I am trying to detect a pattern when a message is read in an outlook mail (web and desktop), so I decided to add the DetectedEntity extension point but I keep getting the following error on the web and it is not also working on desktop office 2016.
This app can't be installed. The manifest file doesn't conform to the
schema definition. This is an invalid xsi:type
'http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/mailappversionoverrides:DetectedEntity'...

How do I fix the Issue> I need a way to implement this feature.
DetectedEntities is only supported from VersionOverrides V1_1, if you are using V1_0 this error will be thrown.
The containing VersionOverrides element must have xsi:type attribute value as VersionOverridesV1_1.
I have developed an outlook add-in and posted on Microsoft appstore.
But I got validation error report with change request as below:
4.12.1 Add in commands do not appear in the Outlook 2016 Desktop Client or in the Outlook 2016 Client on Mac - there appears to be an issue in the version overrides element in your manifest file

As long as I added those missing entries the add-in was loaded (obviosly you would need to change the icons for those missing IDs) ...
I am having this issue with outlook add-in. So the add-in is published inside company by IT, and everybody sees it on OWA and it is functioning the way it supposed to.
Now for some users when they open Outlook 2013 Desktop it is greyed out like this:
And when I go to manage add-in on owa this is what I see which seems alright:
I tried to disable other add-ins to see if those are causing conflicts and that did not work. Here is the manifest file: I deleted some lines that are company related and modified url's but the rest is the same.

Any ideas?
Ok - so your DefaultMinVersion is 1.4:
<bt:Sets DefaultMinVersion="1.4">
Per the Requirement Set documentation, requirement set 1.4 was added to Outlook 2013 via kb 3118280, which is version 15.0.4859.1000. So you should check the version of Outlook 2013 you're running. Any client which is out of date would offer requirement set 1.3 or lower and would show the icon as greyed out.
Your comment about Salesforce reminds me of something I just debugged. The version of Outlook itself doesn't matter for requirements sets. It's the version of osf.dll and osfshared.dll that matter. So quite likely that's out of date. Try the latest OSF update and see if that gets Salesforce working.
Bug I filed on the requirements sets documentation: https://github.com/OfficeDev/office-js-docs/issues/1461
For some reason, when I load the manifest file into Outlook, the default icon is displaying for my Outlook add-in. The add-in is being hosted internally at our organization—would that cause this issue?
Below I have selected the pertinent sections of my manifest file. Please let me know if any other information is needed. Any help would be appreciated.
