Installation in Office 365
In many cases, especially at larger companies, you will need to request for your Microsoft Office administrator to install new add-ins for you. If this is the case for you, you can direct them to our Installation Guide for Administrators.
If you have permission to install your own add-ins, you can do so by following these steps.
- Open Microsoft Outlook
- Go to Settings > Manage add-ins
- Choose My add-ins
- Search for "Amazon Chime" and then choose the Add button to add it to your account.
- You should see the Amazon Chime logo in the ribbon at the top of the page the next time you schedule a meeting. You will need to sign in to your Amazon Chime account to use the add-in.
For more information on the add-in, or to install from Microsoft AppSource, visit our Microsoft AppSource page.
