OC6.1 Requirements
- Kasper Svane
General requirements:
The Digizuite™ Office Connector (from now on "OC") requires OC 5.8, DC 5.8 and MM 5.8 as a minimum.
The OC must be installed as an HTTPS site through the Media Manager installation.
You must install aspnetcore 5.0.6 https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet/thank-you/runtime-aspnetcore-5.0.6-windows-hosting-bundle-installer
Deployment requirements:
Centralized Deployment
Centralized Deployment is the only supported deployment method of the OC.
The following requirements must be met to deploy the OC with this method:
All users must use Office 365 ProPlus and be signed in to Office using their Organizational IDs.
Windows users must use version 1704 or later of Office 365 ProPlus
A more detailed description of the requirements and a description of how to check whether the requirements are met can be found at: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/office365/admin/manage/centralized-deployment-of-add-ins?view=o365-worldwide.
Alternative deployment methods
Alternative deployment methods exist, but they should only be considered if no Office 365 ProPlus subscription is available. However, note that:
These alternatives have not been tested, and they are a lot more cumbersome than Centralized Deployment.
No alternative seems to exist for making the OC available on Mac
Possible alternatives are
Installing the OC separately on each computer where it is to be used: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/office/dev/add-ins/testing/create-a-network-shared-folder-catalog-for-task-pane-and-content-add-ins
Publishing the OC to a SharePoint app catalog: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/office/dev/add-ins/publish/publish-task-pane-and-content-add-ins-to-an-add-in-catalog
