Location of the Digizuite™ Office Connector in the Office interface

In order to bring out the Digizuite™ Office Connector to the interface of Microsoft Word/Excel/PowerPoint, navigate to the ‘Insert’ tab. At the far right of the available tools, you will find the connector’s button (the visible name is configurable). Click on it to activate the Office Connector.

The connector will open on the right side of the working area. If the user has previously used the connector and did not log out, the solution will load in a logged-in state. Otherwise, the user needs to log in.

Please be aware

When installing the connector, you must not already have another connector enabled in your Office product. If this is the case, then please ask your administrator to have it removed ('Insert' → Arrow down on ‘My Add-ins’ → ‘Manage Other Add-ins’ → ‘Trust Center’ → ‘Trust Center Settings’ → ‘Trusted Add-in Catalogs’ → ‘Clear’ → ‘OK’ → Restart Office product → Re-add)

Logging in/logging out

In order to log in, click on the menu icon at the top right of the Office Connector panel and select "Log in". 

This will activate the ‘Login’ box in which the user needs to input the username and password.


In order to log out, click on the menu icon at the top right of the Office Connector panel again and, this time, select ‘Log out’.
