Using the Outlook mobile add-in in Government Community Cloud (GCC) environments

Enable the Outlook mobile add-in in a Microsoft 365 Government Community Cloud (GCC) tenant with a PowerShell setting.

By default, Microsoft 365 GCC environments are configured to prevent the use of mobile add-ins. This also prevents them from being loaded on a device even when deployed from the Microsoft 365 Integrated Apps portal.

On Android devices, the add-ins option is not listed under the settings menu. On iOS devices, opening add-ins reports "This account does not support Add-ins"

To resolve this, the Microsoft 365 tenant must be modified through Exchange Online PowerShell to allow the use of Outlook Mobile add-ins.

Connect to Exchange Online: and log in with a Global Administrator account:

Connect-ExchangeOnline

When connected, use the following command to disable add-ins on mobile devices:

Set-OrganizationConfig -OutlookMobileGCCRestrictionsEnabled $false

You can check this setting using the following command:

Get-OrganizationConfig | fl OutlookMobileGCCRestrictionsEnabled

Which will return the following when disabled:
