Updating the Signature 365 Outlook add-in
An update has been released to the Signature 365 Outlook add-in, and you have been advised by Symprex that the Signature 365 add-in must be manually updated. This ensures you take advantage of the improvements it contains.
Information
The Outlook add-in will in most cases self-update when installed from either the Microsoft 365 integrated apps deployment, or when manually installed using the manifest XML. However, occasions arise where a major update to the add-in requires a redeployment to allow the update to occur.
In these situations, information will be sent out from the Symprex social media feeds, or by an email update to customers. In some circumstances, a member of the support team will request that this be completed.
The update process will differ depending on how the add-in has been installed for your users.

The next page will detail the changes and any new capabilities the app can perform.
