I work with Microsoft Learning to publish & maintain multiple self-paced learning modules related to Microsoft 365. These modules are primarily used as self-paced study resources for developers preparing to take the MS-600 exam , the only prerequisite to achieve the Microsoft 365 Certified: Teams Application Developer Associate certification. This is one of those modules.

The Office Add-ins platform enables you to extend the functionality of Office applications including Word, Outlook, and Excel.

In this module, you’ll explore various ways you can use add-ins to extend and interact with Office applications. The units in this module explain the add-in programming model, developer tools, how to debug, deployment options, and the capabilities available to developers who want to customize.

You’ll also learn how you can customize your add-in by persisting state, use Fluent UI to create productive experiences and incorporate data with Microsoft Graph.
