UnaXL

How to deploy the UnaXL Excel add-in through Integrated Apps in the Microsoft 365 admin center using a custom manifest file.

Before you begin​

  • You must have permission to access the Microsoft 365 admin center and manage Integrated Apps.
  • You need the link to the UnaXL add-in manifest file in XML format.
  • The users receiving the add-in should have access to Excel and be signed in with their organizational Microsoft 365 account.
  • Deployment can take time to appear for users, so plan for a short propagation window before testing broadly.

Deploy the UnaXL add-in in Integrated Apps​

  1. Sign in to the Microsoft 365 admin center with an administrator account.
  2. Open Settings, then select Integrated apps.

  1. Click on Validate and Save.
  2. Choose who should receive the add-in: Everyone, Specific users/groups, or Just me for testing.
  3. Review the deployment details, then select Deploy.
  4. Wait for the confirmation that the deployment completed successfully.

What happens after deployment​

After deployment, users may need to restart Excel and sign back in before the add-in appears. In some environments, centralized deployment changes can take up to 24 to 72 hours to become visible to all assigned users. For an initial rollout, it is a good practice to assign the add-in to a small test group first and confirm that UnaXL appears correctly in Excel before expanding deployment.

How users can verify the add-in​

  1. Open Excel and sign in with the assigned Microsoft 365 account.
  2. Look for the UnaXL add-in on the ribbon or in the add-ins area of Excel.

  1. If the add-in does not appear, restart Excel and try again after the deployment window has passed.
  2. If needed, confirm with your administrator that the correct user or group assignment was selected.

Troubleshooting​

  • Verify that the intended users or groups were selected during deployment.
  • Ask users to restart Excel after deployment.
  • If the add-in still does not appear, allow additional time for centralized deployment to finish propagating.
  • If deployment fails in the admin center, contact support@una.ai with any messages presented when adding to the Integrated Apps area or within Excel.
