Install the HubSpot Sales Office 365 add-in

Please note:

  • Outlook installed from the Microsoft Store is not compatible with the HubSpot Sales Office 365 add-in. Check your Outlook version to ensure it is Click-to-run.
  • Office 365 from GoDaddy is not compatible with the HubSpot Sales Office 365 add-in, because GoDaddy currently does not support third party apps.
  • The HubSpot Sales Office 365 add-in can only be installed on an Office 365 hosted email account (Office 365 Business Premium, Office 365 Business Essentials, or Office 365 Personal). If your inbox is hosted with a different email provider, you cannot install the Office 365 add-in, even if you are using Outlook to access that email provider. If you don't have an Office 365 account but use Outlook for Desktop on Windows, install the HubSpot Sales Outlook desktop add-in instead.
  • Do not install both the HubSpot Sales Office 365 add-in and the HubSpot Sales Outlook desktop add-in on the same device. These add-ins will conflict.

There are two ways to install the HubSpot Sales Office 365 add-in:

  • Centrally deploy the add-in
  • Install the add-in individually

Centrally deploy the add-in

Office 365 admins can centrally deploy the add-in to all Office 365 users in your organization. When the add-in is centrally deployed, all Office 365 users on the domain will automatically get the add-in, with no additional steps required.

Follow Microsoft's instructions to publish Office add-ins using centralized deployment via the Office 365 admin center. On the Centralized deployment step, select I want to add an Add-In from the Office Store, and search for HubSpot Sales.

Please note: when the add-in is centrally deployed, you may need to relaunch Office to see the add-in icon appear on the ribbon of the app. Outlook add-ins can take up to 12 hours to appear

Install the add-in individually

You can install the Office 365 add-in individually in your account. Keep in mind that if you have multiple email accounts in Outlook, you have to install the add-in in each email account where you want to access the sales tools.

  • Click here to navigate to the add-in in Microsoft AppSource.

  • In the left sidebar, click Get It Now.

Before you install the HubSpot Sales Outlook desktop add-in, review the following limitations and compatibility requirements:
