How can I integrate a website or a web browser to Microsoft outlook 2007/2010? The website should appear inside the Outlook just like an Outlook application.
Thanks.
You can assign your website URL to one of the folders of your outlook.
You can also do it with outlook add-in . So that you can assign webviewURL of folders through code.

We have a site used by Outlook addin hosted on sharepoint, when a user tried to access it they had a browser window open on the Sharepoint Online site, our front end is hosted there but it doesn't bring us to site location it just brings to Sharepoint home page.
We resolved this for a lot of users by adding runtimes in our manifest (this will force Outlook to use IE, whereas before browser is determined on a combination of 365 and windows versions). Still for some users it will bring us to a new browser, we have checked they are on the same Windows and Office 365 version as others who have the plugin working in Outlook task pane.
Also to note there is no issue with anyone using the plugin from OWA (web mail in a browser) and the redirect from desktop outlook looks like it for SSO then verifies user in browser and brings us to Sharepoint.
anyone have any idea what could be causing this?
The problem was caused by any sites or domains trying to be accessed by outlook addin need to be added to app domains in the manifest file. We ran a fiddler trace on the users machine and took a list of the domains that were being hit (for SSO) once we added them this issue was resolved.
I have created an Outlook Web Add-in that runs great and all users can add it to their My add-ins > Custom add-ins from the Store icon on Outlook 365 when choosing to Add from file. However, when trying to load the same manifest from Add from URL Outlook is showing the following dialog.
I did download the validate-office-addin using npm. Here is the Validation "Passed" result:
All users who are trying to add the add-in from the URL have access to the web server and can browse the manifest file and see the XML Definition directly from a browser, such as Chrome.
Are there any steps that I am missing that should allow this to be available for adding the add-in from a URL?
Thanks
I'm currently struggling with the 2010 Sharepoint Outlook (OWA) webparts. I can put them on my site, i get prompted to login (in OWA), but when i login i get this error.
This content cannot be displayed in a frame.
I've read alot about the topic, but haven't found a answer to if it's possible to get it working or not.
We're currently running SharePoint 2010, and OWA 2013. Upgrading to SharePoint 2013 is in the pipeline, but not around the corner...
Outlook is running locally, but will be moved to the cloud (MS 365) and SharePoint is locally hosted.
I am writing custom code in Outlook Add-in using SharePoint Web Services to create a meeting workspace in SharePoint. Then I add a meeting to the workspace created.
Basically I want to mimic the functionality provided by Outlook itself.
The problem is after a meeting is created, I can not set the MeetingWorkspaceUrl property in AppointmentItem using my custom code. It says the property is read only.
But when I create a workspace using default Outlook functionality, I can see that MeetingWorkspaceUrl is set to a valid URL.
Can I do the same thing through custom code?
MeetingWorkspaceUrl is readonly in the Outlook API, you need to use EWS (AppointmentItem.MeetingWorkspaceUrl) to assign its value.
I have a problem with Outlook calendar and Sharepoint. I want to send my Outlook Calendar to Calendar in Sharepoint and this calendar will be available for other people.
When I create new calendar in Sharepoint, I click Search but with no results.
What is "URL program address OWA" and "URL services Web Exchange"?
To show your Exchange calendar within SharePoint you can use the Outlook Web App web parts. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb232199.aspx
If you would like to actually sync your calendar to a SharePoint calendar, there are some third party applications for this.
