Configuration

The plugin configuration contains three parameters:

• applicationToken, which is the secret shared between the desktop application and the plugin;
• dlpEnabled, which is the Smart Assistant activation setting;
• settingsUpgraded, which is an internal parameter not to be touched.

The configuration file is called user.config and can usually be found in the following folders:

• %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft_Corporation\SealdOutlookPlugin.vsto_v_Path_{XXX}\{OUTLOOK_VERSION}
• \Apps\2.0\Data\{XXX}\{YYY}\SealdOutlookPlugin.vsto_{ZZZZ}\Data\{OUTLOOK_VERSION}

Where XXX / YYYY / ZZZZ are identifiers depending on your configuration.

Be careful, with Outlook updates, OUTLOOK_VERSION changes, so the location of the configuration file changes too.

By default, the configuration file is as follows:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
    <userSettings>
        <SealdOutlookPlugin.SealdSettings>
            <setting name="applicationToken" serializeAs="String">
                <value>N/A</value>
            </setting>
            <setting name="dlpEnabled" serializeAs="String">
                <value>False</value>
            </setting>
            <setting name="settingsUpgraded" serializeAs="String">
                <value>False</value>
            </setting>
        </SealdOutlookPlugin.SealdSettings>
    </userSettings>
</configuration>

It may be advisable, in some cases, to overwrite it and put desired values (such as True to dlpEnabled if you want to force the Smart Assistant).

Changing the event logging level.

The Seald Outlook plugin logs some events into the file %APPDATA%\seald-outlook\logs.log.

The default verbosity level is info. Available levels are (in order) trace, debug, info, warn, error and fatal.

In order to change the logging level, create a system-wide environment variable named SEALD_OUTLOOK_LOG_LEVEL set with the desired level as value.
