Hiding the footer in UI Outlook app

Hi folks, hopefully an easy question! I'm trying my hand a bit of JS to simply hide the footer in an app (specifically, the D365 for Outlook app). I've tried a number of things but haven't had any success - this is my current script:

function HideFooter() {
	// Run on form load
	this.formOnLoad = function (executionContext) {
		var formContext = executionContext.getFormContext();

		formContext.ui.footerSection.setVisible(false);	// Hide the footer
	}
}

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? The below article seems to handle the problem but it looks far more complex than I think I need.

Many thanks in advance!

RE: Hiding the footer in UI Outlook app

Hello,

Probably that JavaScript function is not yet available for D365 for Outlook App. Even it uses the Unified Interface, the forms are still different, so probably the functions will be made available gradually.

Also, there is no official documentation confirming that it works for D365 for Outlook app so, as best effort, you can try to clarify that directly with Microsoft by opening a case.

Hope this helps you.

I could be wrong, but I'm fairly certain the new version of the D365 for Outlook app uses the Unified Interface, as opposed to the old app that was separate.

Hi,

Than you for your query.

This functionality is only supported in the Unified Interface.

As far as I know, this will not work for the Outlook App.
