I am using Jacob-1.18-M1 to Drag Drop the outlook emails on to a Java Applet. It works perfectly fine with Outlook 2003, but fails with Outlook 2010. I get the “Operation Failed” message. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I have an Add-in I have written for Microsoft Outlook. The Add-in runs in a task pane. I have a button on the html in the page that opens a new window using Office.context.ui.displayDialogAsync. This button works fine in the web client, but when clicked in the full Outlook client, a window appears and disappears in a split second. This Add-in was developed outside VS so not sure how I can debug apart from in web client, which not does have the issue.
The domain is the same, and the domain is in the appDomain of the XML manifest. The URL is also https.
Does anyone have any ideas, have I missed something that says this isn't available in full client and only available in web client?
About Outlook version:
Version 2102 (Build 13801.21004 Click-to-Run)
Microsoft Office for Outlook 365 MSO (16.0.13801.21002) 64-bit
If I clock Office Updates, it tells me Office is up to date.
Update
I have another machine with Outlook installed, and I have discovered the dialog opens fine on the full outlook client. Looking at the version for that version of outlook (logged in to the same Office 365 account), the version shows as:
Version 2110 (Build 14527.20226 Click-to Run)
Microsoft Office for Outlook 365 MSO (Version 2110 Build 16.0.14527.20168) 64-bit
So it looks like maybe the earlier build had an issue in Outlook?
Would you like to share a screen recording in the machine where the API is not working?
Besides, you could also try a test add-in with this: Manifest.
It's an app command so you can click "Show Taskpane" first, and then click "launchDialogSameOrigin" button in the taskpane. You can observe whether the dialog is working correctly in this add-in.
Thanks.
Problem Statement: Create a macOS Outlook add-in which responds to Calendar move and delete events and calls an API.
Challenge: Most of the links say that this is not possible but there are native Outlook add-ins for Mac already out there. One example is Zoom's New Updates For Outlook Plugin.
Problem with Office-JS add-in: We know that MS is pushing office add-ins for Mac, however there are some limitations which we cannot live with. Office-JS add-in does not react on move and delete events in a Calendar. I understand that there are notifications that can be subscribed to and required action can be taken. This is also a challenge because our clients won't allow to deploy extra components outside network.
Does anyone have any idea on how to create a native macOS Outlook add-in?
The add-in you've given as an example isn't a native add-in. It is a web add-in using Office.js. It does not seem to react to events in the Calendar. It is configured for the Calendar read / write surface, so its button appears in that context.
Currently, there is no way to create "native" add-ins for Mac Outlook. If you can describe your scenario and what you aren't able to achieve with web add-ins, we could try and provide a workaround.
We developed an add-in for Outlook which is published in the store already. It has paid and trial versions. License checking in the add-in works fine if the add-in is used from a browser, Outlook for Mac. But if it is Outlook for Windows or outlook.live.com (versions where "add-in commands" feature is enabled and add-in is opened in a side bar) then no license information is passed.
Example:
This correct URL is navigated from Outlook Web and Outlook Mac:
https://serverurl?et=%3cr+v%3d%221%22%3e%3ct..............
This is how the URL looks like for Outlook for Windows:
https://serverurl?_host_Info=Outlook|Win32|16.01|en-US
So, since Outlook for Windows does not supply license information we have to refuse add-in access for our clients on Outlook for Windows.
I found related questions for Excel and Word, but none of them was answered yet. The problem is that it is Outlook that needs to send the data, so we can do nothing in our code to troubleshoot.
Guys, any ideas where the problem is or what to check in the manifest?
Here is the link to the add-in listing in the Office store (TextMiner) if it may help to answer.
I'm developing an Outlook Mail Add-in there is a requirement for me to make the add-in behave differently in the Desktop Outlook client and Web Client.
I was going throgh the Outlook Add-in API documentation but I couldn't find a way to detect the client type. Can anyone tell me if this is possible and how.
Office.context.mailbox.diagnostics.hostName
I'm trying to develop addins for Outlook 2016 for Mac, doesn't seem like it's possible to add command buttons to the ribbon. I am able to create only custom panes in the Read/Update windows for Message and Appointment.
Anybody knows why ? The Windows version works as advertised.
Assuming you mean these kinds of add-in command buttons, Mac Outlook doesn't support them yet.
