Office Integration

Shared App Model support

The Microsoft feature, Shared App Model, is now supported in Excel Integration, enabling us to implement these enhancements:

  • You can work with several workbooks which use the add-in at the same time, even if they are connected to different tenants.
  • Connections to a tenant stay active even when not interacting with the task pane.
  • Closing the task pane does not terminate the add-in, it continues to run in the background.

This feature requires an update to the Office add-in. See the "Updating the Office Integration add-in after a new release" topic and Knowledge Base Article 2162573 for further information.
