How to Configure the Drip7 Outlook Phishing Extension

This guide outlines the process for setting up the Drip7 Outlook Phish Extension through the Office 365 Admin Center. The process is simple and integrates seamlessly with Outlook on desktop, browser, and mobile platforms.

 

Step 1: Obtain the Manifest File

  • Log into the Drip7 platform using your admin credentials.
  • Navigate to the “Tenant” tab in the admin dashboard and scroll to the bottom.
  • Enable the “Generate Outlook Manifest” switch, then click “Outlook Phish Extension Manifest” to access the XML file.
  • Right-click the XML file and save it to an easily accessible location on your device.

 

Step 2: Access the Office 365 Admin Center

  • Log into the Office 365 Admin Center for your organization using admin credentials.
  • Go to the “Settings” section, then select “Integrated Apps.”
  • Click “Upload custom apps” to start the process of adding the Drip7 Outlook Phish Extension.

 

Step 3: Upload and Validate the Manifest File

  • In the app upload interface, select “Office Add-in” as the App type.
  • Choose “Upload manifest file (.xml) from device” and select the XML file saved in Step 1.
  • Office 365 will upload and validate the manifest file. If validation succeeds, click “Next” to proceed.

 

Step 4: Assign Users and Deploy the Add-In

  • Assign the add-in to the desired users or groups within your organization.
  • Click “Next,” then “Next” again to review settings, and finally “Finish deployment” to accept and deploy the add-in.
  • Deployment may take up to six hours. Once complete, users will see the Drip7 logo in their Outlook email viewer (desktop, browser, or mobile).
  • Users can click the Drip7 logo to report phishing emails, which will be sent to the email address configured as your Drip7 Support Email.
