Hello,

If you do encounter this error with the Office Add-In Business Inbox after running Assisted Setup, the current workaround is the following:

- Use the search function in  Dynamics 365 Business Central to find the page Office Add-In Management

- In the page that opens, click on the three dots in the action bar, and then More Options

- Click again on the three dots, and a new additional menu shows up called Actions. Click on it, and then Reset Default Add-ins

After this, try again to deploy the Office Add-In Business Inbox using the assisted setup.

Thanks.

    I am getting the error message but the item "Office Add-ins Management" no longer seems to exist in Business Central.  Has this been renamed?  I am trying to install the Outlook Add-in for Business Central but cannot get past this error message.

    Yes agreed, Office Add-ins Management has not been in BC since the last update. I am getting the same error message above. Will check v 20.1 to see if this is still happening.

    UPDATE: IT IS NOW CALLED OUTLOOK ADDIN-MANAGEDMENT
