"New" Outlook Add-in Not Working

Outlook kept prompting me to switch to "new" Outlook, but my Smartsheet add-in isn't functioning with it. I believe it's a SS issue, not a system administrator issue because other add-ins I used previously are working just fine (Box, OneNote, Teams). Will this be fixed soon?

    Hi - I hope that you are Doing good !!

    In Outlook search for "Smartsheet" in the search bar in the Add-ins window

    Find the Smartsheet add-in in the list of installed add-ins

    If incase the Smartsheet add-in is installed but not enabled try enabling it and restart Outlook and checl for the outcome 

    Hope this helps and happy to assist further !!

    Thank you very much and have a fantastic day!

    Warm regards

  • Thanks, I've already tried those things. It just always says it won't work when my other add-ins have continued to function just fine.

  • This doesn't work for me either. I used this add-in to legacy Outlook Microsoft app quite heavily (daily). Would like Smartsheet to focus on this not working with the New Outlook.

  • one year later and still the same issue. I wish SmartSheet would address this with the priority it deserves

    Hi, I've had the same issue. I do however have both the new Outlook and Outlook Classic on my laptop and have found that if I open Outlook Classic and sign in to Smartsheet when I jump back to the new Outlook its signed in and happy (this means nothing to me but maybe it will to someone more tech savvy).
    Also hoping for a fix because it's also something I use daily ordinarily.

    Same issue here. Did an Inspect while using OWA and saw this message in the Console: "failed to get user identity JWT, what should we do?" Looking at outlook.js, I see this:

    function initialize() {
    $scope.updateValues.messageId = OfficeSDK.context.mailbox.item.itemId;
    $scope.updateValues.restDomain = OfficeSDK.context.mailbox.ewsUrl;
    $scope.loadEmailData();

            // This request returns the outlook JWT token
            OfficeSDK.context.mailbox.getUserIdentityTokenAsync(function (result) {
                if (result.status == SUCCESS_STATUS) {
                    userTokenService.setToken(result.value);
                    $scope.doAuthPoll();
                } else {
                    // TODO what is the plan here?
                    console.log('failed to get user identity JWT, what should we do?');
                }
    
            });
        }
