* (✅ -> ❌) - End of support officially announced.
(1) - Support for running Microsoft 365 Apps (Web Add-ins) on Desktop. Not having the support makes the Email Signature Web Add-in completely not working.
(2) - Support for Task Pane interaction - when opening the "Email Signatures" task pane and manually inserting the signature. We refer to this as authenticated flow in Web add-in, as the user has to authenticate/be authenticated.
(3) - Support for Event-based actions. These include all the actions that are performed by us as a result of user actions in Outlook, without interacting with the Task Pane. We refer to this as an unauthenticated flow, as this works for 30 days after logging in in the task pane. As of now (Oct. 2022) there are 2 triggers: on a message being composed and on recipients being changed. The first one handles the automatic signature insertion, while the second one performs updating the signature for internal/external. Not having support for this makes our Web Add-in only work in authenticated flow.
