Installation

Configure primedocs.config

Any GUID can be used as the id.

<primedocs> ... <officeAddin id="[GUID]" namePrefix="" /> </primedocs>

The namePrefix can be used if there are several environments. The AddIns are then named in the form {namePrefix} primedocs.

After changing the primedocs.config, the web applications should be restarted.
