Outlook Add-in Delegate Access to Calendar

Question

For an Outlook add-in using add-in commands (office.js), the ribbon buttons under the AppointmentOrganizerCommandSurface extension point are disabled when creating a meeting in Outlook 2016 in a calendar for which the user has been granted delegate access.

The same add-in running under OWA is able to operate on the delegated calendar with no issues.

Is this a bug with Outlook 2016 or is there something else I need to do to make this work?

Note that for Outlook 2016 when the meeting compose view is open for the delegated calendar, the generic "Office Add-ins" ribbon button is also disabled.

Answer 1

Delegated Mailboxs/Items are not supported by Outlook Add-ins at this time.
