New Update Microsoft updates Office apps with a new section for managing add-ins

[silversurfer]

Microsoft has announced a new section for managing Word, Excel, and PowerPoint add-ins. The updated button is now rolling out to Office apps on Windows and their web-based counterparts.

The new add-ins button is now rolling out to Office apps on Windows with version 2301 (build number 16026.20146) and newer. Note that Microsoft is shipping new Office features in waves to ensure stability and smooth rollout, so it might take a few more days before you get them. You can learn more about Office add-ins on the Microsoft 365 Insider website.

With the updated Windows and web-based Office apps, you can browse and add new add-ins from the Home page. Click the Add-ins button and select the one you need from the list of popular extensions. If the add-in is not there, click the More add-ins button. Alternatively, go to File > Get Add-ins, where you can view or remove installed add-ins by clicking Manage My Add-ins.

Microsoft launches a Word add-in for creating and managing approval requests for workers

Microsoft 365 subscribers who have a Frontline worker (F1) license and above can now access a new add-in for the Word app that should make it easier for them to create and manage approval requests for those workers.

In a post on the Microsoft 365 Insider blog, Microsoft stated there was already an Approvals app made for Teams, but any approvals made via the app could not be attached to a Word file. This new add-in for Word solves that issue. Microsoft stated:

By bringing the Approval add-in to Word, you now have a direct entry point to create approval requests for a specific document you’re working on. This Add-in also allows you to see all approval requests that took place over time in a specific document. As an approver, you can also respond to the request right in the Word document, rather than needing to go to the Approvals app in Microsoft Teams.
