This installation guide is for the Outlook (Windows) version. 

Choose the right version of Sendent
Sendent is compatible with both 32-bit and 64-bit systems. To ensure accurate identification of the Outlook version on your computer (rather than the Windows server version), please follow these steps. Keep in mind that the installation file you use will depend on the Outlook version detected.

  1. In Outlook, choose File.


                                                                File Setting Tab

  1. Select Office Account. 

  2. Select About Outlook.


                                                                    About button

  1. The top of the About Outlook box shows the version number and 32-bit or 64-bit distinction.

  1. Once you have determined your bit version, download the appropriate installation file.

    • 32-bits --> Setup_Version_x84.msi 

    • 64-bits --> Setup_Version_x64.msi

 

Installation
Once you have downloaded the appropriate installation file, you can begin installing Sendent. Just follow the instructions in the installer.

In one of the steps, you are presented with an option to set a default URL for your Nextcloud server. This is an optional step and is not mandatory. Setting a default URL can be convenient if you have multiple clients using the same Nextcloud server.


                                Setting URL of Nextcloud Server

If you set a default Nextcloud server URL in this step, it won't be possible for any user to log out directly through their Outlook settings screen. In the event of a URL change or if a mistake was made, the registry key associated with Sentent Outlook Add-in is located at:

Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\Addins\SendentOutlook

Look for the entry:

DefaultNextcloudUrl (REG_SZ)

This key stores the default Nextcloud URL.

First Login
Regardless of the chosen action in the previous step, the user has to perform a one-time login to connect Sendent to their Nextcloud server. If the administrator did not set a default URL during installation, a user can log out and connect to a different account. If a default URL has been set, the user will not be able to log out and change accounts.

It's important to note that Sendent will automatically start when Outlook is launched. For users seeking clarification on this process, Sendent is seamlessly integrated and initiated upon starting Outlook.
