Project task list. Use this accessible template to divvy up project assignments and track progress.

The task pane UX shape for add-in commands opens a vertical task pane to the right of an open message or meeting request, allowing the add-in to provide UI for more detailed interactions (filling in multiple fields, etc.). This task pane can be shown in the Reading Pane when viewing a list of messages, allowing for quick processing of a message.

However, by default, if a user has an add-in task pane open for a message in the Reading Pane, and then selects a new message, the task pane is automatically closed. For a heavily-used add-in, the user may prefer to keep that pane open, eliminating the need to reactivate the add-in on each message. With pinnable task panes, your add-in can give the user that option.

Note

Although the pinnable task panes feature was introduced in requirement set 1.5, it's currently only available to Microsoft 365 subscribers using the following.

• Outlook 2016 or later on Windows (build 7668.2000 or later for users in the Current or Office Insider Channels, build 7900.xxxx or later for users in Deferred channels)
• Outlook 2016 or later on Mac (version 16.13.503 or later)
• Modern Outlook on the web

Important

Pinnable task panes are not available for the following.

• Appointments/Meetings
• Outlook.com

Support task pane pinning

The first step is to add pinning support, which is done in the add-in manifest. This is done by adding the SupportsPinning element to the Action element that describes the task pane button.

The SupportsPinning element is defined in the VersionOverrides v1.1 schema, so you will need to include a VersionOverrides element both for v1.0 and v1.1.

Note

If you plan to publish your Outlook add-in to AppSource, when you use the SupportsPinning element, in order to pass AppSource validation, your add-in content must not be static and it must clearly display data related to the message that is open or selected in the mailbox.

For a full example, see the msgReadOpenPaneButton control in the command-demo sample manifest.

Handling UI updates based on currently selected message

To update your task pane's UI or internal variables based on the current item, you'll need to register an event handler to get notified of the change.

Implement the event handler

The event handler should accept a single parameter, which is an object literal. The type property of this object will be set to Office.EventType.ItemChanged. When the event is called, the Office.context.mailbox.item object is already updated to reflect the currently selected item.

Important

The implementation of event handlers for an ItemChanged event should check whether or not the Office.content.mailbox.item is null.

Register the event handler

Use the Office.context.mailbox.addHandlerAsync method to register your event handler for the Office.EventType.ItemChanged event. This should be done in the Office.initialize function for your task pane.

  This is NOT integrating the tasks INTO the calendar. This is displaying them side by side in a few different formats. I need to have them INTEGRATED for ease of use and printing purposes!

  the first option does that.

  Is there a way to use the calendar and task features in Outlook without being able to access my emails? I want to continue to use both the calendar and task management systems, but my emails tend to suck me in, and I waste productive time during the day checking emails. I'd rather check my emails three times a day. You may be thinking, just don't open your emails. For me, it's not that simple.
