Updated over a month ago

The Word Add-in is a powerful way for your users to interact with Legora on a document directly in Word. This will allow them to review and ask questions about their document, as well as draft new content.

Depending on the organisation's settings, Word Add-ins can be either added by users directly our rolled out by and admin.

⚠️Note: You must install the correct Add-in for your environment. If you are using the EU instance (app.eu.legora.com) you must also use the Word Add-in with EU processing

Prerequisites

Centralized deployment requires that users receiving the add‑in are licensed with a Microsoft 365 or Office 365 suite that includes Exchange Online, and that they sign in with their organizational (Entra ID) account. Supported suites include:

  • Microsoft 365 Business Basic, Standard, Premium

  • Office 365 E1, E3, E5 (and F3)

  • Microsoft 365 E3, E5 (and F3)

Standalone Microsoft 365 Apps for Business/Enterprise does not include Exchange Online, which means users on these plans alone cannot receive centrally deployed Outlook add‑ins.

Centralized deployment can be performed by:

  • Global Administrator (recommended, with full management capabilities)

  • Exchange Administrator (deployment and management via the admin center)
