Office365 Plugin

This is a dedicated article for the Office365 (XML) Report Plugin.
It's supported by the following deployment environments:

  • Office365 Desktop
  • Office365 Web
  • Office365 Mobile
  • Outlook for Mac
  • Office for Mac 2016
  • Office for Mac 2019

The Outlook 365 button works similar to the Outlook Plugin but mainly used for the web-based Outlook access O365.
The set of supported features are listed in the comparison table in the main article.

The important aspect of the O365 Plugin (XML) is that it works differently compared to the Outlook one (msi).
The office365 plugin dynamically reads the settings from the Lucy server and uses the email/settings which are configured there.
While the MSI can be configured multiple times and have different settings, the XML plugin will always work only according to the settings that are currently being set within Lucy Incident Plugin Settings.

The O365 Button design is also different.
The logo button that's presented in the interface does not do the report itself - it initiates the addon.
The sliding-in interface from the side is the addon plugin iteself and only the blue-button can perform the report.
So it takes more steps to report a message using O365 Report Plugin.

For its work, it is necessary to have a network connection between Lucy and O365 server in case if you use a web browser as a client, and a network connection between Lucy and user's workstation in case if a desktop client is used.
The XML is the file that needs to be installed for O365 plugin to work.
