Set a dropdown value when adding a row using Outlook add-in
I'm seeking the ability to set a dropdown value (e.g. "New" in "Status" column) when adding a row to a sheet via either manual entry or (more likely) using the Outlook add-in.
Is there a way to do that?

Hi,
Yes, there is. You could have a formula in the Status column, and as long as at least two previous/following rows have the same formulas, it will work.
You might have to restructure the design so the rows would be added to the top instead or add a divider with two rows with the formula because I assume that you'd want to change the Status, and that would delete the formula.
Something like this.
Try something like this.
=IF(ISBLANK(Primary@row); ""; "New")
The same version but with the below changes for your and others convenience.
=IF(ISBLANK(Primary@row), "", "New")
Depending on your country, you’ll need to exchange the comma to a period and the semi-colon to a comma.
Would that work?
I hope that helps!
Have a fantastic weekend!
