I am working on outlook addin. But to add addin to outlook I need to see store icon. See image 1.
but when I switch to exchange mail server inbox i start seeing store icon. See image 2.
I am using outlook for mac 16.16.4. please let me know if this is mandatory requirement or I am doing something wrong.
Store functionality is only available for Exchange accounts, just the way Outlook works. Keep in mind that installed web addins are account based, so for multiple Exchange accounts you will have different addins, and for non-Exchange account you will have none.
Can any body please advise how to create Outlook templates(like .oft or .msg) for MAC outlook by making use of Windows outlook. Is it doable? Do we need to do in any other format? or at-least how to do reusable outlook templates on Mac for multiple Mac users like the way we do for Windows Outlook which they can directly open and use. I tried searching but didn't get exact answers.
Outlook for Mac doesn't offer this functionality.
The closest you can get is by opening the HTML file in Word and doing a mail merge to Outlook. But this is very bad practice and highly not advisable.
Here is the official Q&A: https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Can-I-create-email-templates-in-Outlook-2016-for-Mac-6339b60e-2e5a-4aed-a9e6-2e7b5d7eb5a0
When you have an Office 365 Subscription and use Insider Fast updates on your OutLook for Mac this new Email Template feature is now available. See this blog post.
Does the new Microsoft Outlook API, which enables development of Outlook addins for cross platform, have the ability to trigger an event off the user clicking the send button?
I currently have an Outlook VSTO addin that uses the Application.ItemSend event to check an email for specific content and present the user with a popup asking them if they still want to send or not. This is only compatible with Outlook 2007-16 on Windows though, and I was hoping the new API might enable me to build something similar for Outlook on Mac/mobile/web, but I haven't found any examples or documentation on this particular event trigger yet.

Some support for handling a "send" event was recently added for Outlook Add-ins.
There are several limitations, so be sure to read all the documentation. In particular, this is currently only supported in the Web version of Outlook, and the send event feature cannot be used in any add-ins that will be published in the Office Store.
No, there is no such event. It will most likely be added in the future from what I hear...
Like how it asks email attachemnts to save directly to google drive or one drive . same way i want to get one more option that is my application.
It looks like you need to develop a Mail App which is based on JavaScript and HTML (+CSS). See Mail add-ins for Outlook for more information in MSDN.
Also see Word add-ins.
thank you for taking the time to read this. I have a client who wants a button to be placed on the Appointment form that, when clicked, opens a copy of the Appointment form inside of Outlook as opposed to CRM. I've been looking at Microsoft.Crm.Outlook.SDK and Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook but neither of of them seems to have any methods that jump out as being able to accomplish this. Has anyone run into this that could possibly point me towards an example or a decent tutorial? I've been checking google and the msdn as well but I'm not having any luck. Thank you.
The CRM client can be accessed through a browser or through outlook. If a user is accessing CRM through the outlook client and he opens a link to an appointment - then that appointment will open within outlook. If the user is accessing CRM through a web browser I do not think it is possible to launch an appointment though the web browser directly.
What you could do is generate an outlook appointment (.ics) file - through code - when the user opens this file it will open in Outlook by default. There is a format for creating iCalendar or outlook appointment (.ics) files - just google it - plenty of examples of creating them though code.
