Upgrade to Zivver OWA add-in v4
Introduction
Upgrading from version 3 of the Zivver Outlook Web Access Add-in is straightforward but not automatic. This document describes the steps necessary for the upgrade:
- Introduction
- Locate the current installation of the Zivver OWA Add-in
- Change user assignment.
- Install Zivver OWA Add-in v4
- Migrate users from Zivver OWA Add-in v3 to OWA Add-in v4
- Remove Zivver OWA Add-in v3
- Roll back the OwaMailboxPolicy
Locate the current installation of the Zivver OWA Add-in
Over the past years Microsoft has moved around the location of the add-in in the admin panel. The location where the Zivver OWA Add-in is installed determines the next steps to update to v4 of the Zivver OWA Add-in. Please check the locations below to see in which of the following locations the add-in is installed:
- Latest location
- Previous location
- Legacy location (go to Organization > add-ins)
Change user assignment.
If you’re planning to test the new version with a group of users, please make sure to change the user assignment upfront. If no testing will take place, you can skip this step. Select the Zivver Add-in v3 and edit the user assignment. If the add-in is assigned to ‘Everyone’, change this to the specific group of users who will still work on v3 during the test period. No users should be assigned to both v3 and v4.
Install Zivver OWA Add-in v4
Follow the steps in the Zivver OWA Add-in installation manual to install v4 of the Zivver OWA Add-in. It can take up tot 24 hours before the assigned users see the Add-in as available. See Microsoft’s documentation for more information.
Migrate users from Zivver OWA Add-in v3 to OWA Add-in v4
If the tests succeed, you can start migrating users from v3 to v4. To do so, follow these instructions:
- Remove the to be migrated user(s) assignment from the Zivver OWA Add-in v3.
- Assign the user(s) to the Zivver OWA Add-in v4.
Remove Zivver OWA Add-in v3
When all users have been assigned to v4 and 24 hours have passed, the v3 add-in can safely be removed.
Previous or latest location
To remove Zivver OWA Add-in if it was installed at the previous or latest location:
- Click Zivver.
- Make sure the selected add-in is v3.
- Click Remove add-in.
- Click Remove.
- Refresh the page.
- Check that the Zivver OWA Add-in was indeed removed from the list.
Legacy location
To remove Zivver OWA Add-in if it was installed at the legacy location:
- Double-click Zivver.
- Make sure the selected add-in is v3.

Roll back the OwaMailboxPolicy
If Zivver OWA Add-in v3 was installed, chances are high you have also created an OwaMailboxPolicy and assigned that policy to the users. This policy is no longer needed and can be reverted to the default policy. See Unset OwaMailboxPolicy document for instructions on how to roll back the OwaMailboxPolicy.
