Is there a way to modify an email address in Outlook using the Office Javascript API?

Question

I am looking for a way to automatically change an email address or be able to add a CC based on a condition. Is there an OfficeJS API call for outlook that lets me "edit" an email address or is able to add a CC based on a button click?

In Compose Mode recipients can be accessed via Office.context.mailbox.item.to or cc. There are both getAsync() and setAsync() functions on those.

You can also subscribe to the RecipientsChangeEvent to find out when a user has changed it.

Recipients can be accessed but not changed in Read Mode
