Integrating MS Office Online in a Web Application: Seeking Clarification

Question

Hi everyone,

We're looking to integrate MS Office into our web-based solution, providing users with full access to Office Online features directly within our application.

I've been reviewing the documentation, particularly this link, and I have a few questions:

Embedding Office Online: From the documentation, it appears that the Office editor opens in a new tab rather than within our application. Is there any way to embed Office Online directly within our web application, such as through an iframe?

Alternative Solutions: Are there any other solutions available that would allow us to integrate Office features without needing to fully implement WOPI? For example, could we upload documents to OneDrive and then offer Office Online features within our application?

Microsoft Cloud Storage Partner Program: If we enroll in this program as a service provider, do our customers also need to enroll? Our customers will have active Microsoft 365 licenses, but I’m unclear if they would also need to be part of the Microsoft Cloud Storage Partner Program to access the integrated Office features.

Any insights or guidance on these points would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!
