Hi guys!

I'm looking to know if there's any way to use the same outlook add-in both in the "MessageComposeCommandSurface" and the "MessageReadCommandSurface" by configuring it in my XML manifest file.

Thanks!

    Hi @Yuval Nakav , thank you for submitting a question.

    The following Microsoft Documentation article describes how to customize the VersionOverrides element in the XML manifest file to create add-in commands in the Outlook ribbon, which I think offers a solution to your question.

    Thanks,
    Alison
