Adding the FYI Add-ins to Your Practice Microsoft 365 Account

To guarantee that FYI can fully leverage your practice Microsoft 365 subscription and ensure your users are on the latest version of FYI Desktop for Windows, you need to add the FYI for Office and the FYI for Outlook apps to your Practice Microsoft 365 account.

This is a mandatory step, that must be completed before your team begins using FYI. 

You must be a Microsoft 365 Administrator for your practice to complete this function on behalf of other users. It's recommended to add the FYI Add-ins centrally for all users using the method below.

Alternatively, individual users can add the FYI Add-ins (refer to Adding FYI Add-ins as a User from within Office and Outlook). This may be a good option if only a few individuals are accessing FYI during your 30-Day Free Trial. If already added for individual users, the FYI Add-ins can still be added for your practice Microsoft 365 subscription at a later date without affecting each individual user’s setup.

This article contains the following sections:
