Setting up Jive for Office

The Extended API plugin supports multiple Jive products including the Jive for Office.

Getting up and running with Jive for Office requires installing Extended APIs plugin. Your license then will activate Jive for Office, as well as any other Microsoft plugins you're licensed for.

Install the plugin using the following steps:

1. If you have a version of the Extended APIs plugin earlier than v2.0, or if you have an earlier version of Jive for Office installed, you need to uninstall them before you can install the new Extended APIs.

   Check the Admin Console page at System > Settings > Plugins. If you have a Jive for Office plugin installed, you have the older version and need to remove it. After you remove the old versions and install the new plugin, you should see the new Extended APIs plugin in the Plugins page. If you still see the old plugin, try restarting the Jive server.

2. Install the Extended API plugin, as described in Installing Extended APIs.
3. Check if Jive for Office is enabled, as described in Enabling or disabling Jive for Office.
