@veris-kamaraj This is expected behaviour. Can you tell me where did you install the Outlook App from? Meanwhile you can sideload addin using https://aka.ms/olksideload. For details check our documentation here

@veris-kamaraj Please confirm if Microsoft Outlook was originally installed from App Store. Also, could you please collect logs from Outlook Mac by following the steps mentioned here https://github.com/OfficeDev/office-js/wiki/Collecting-log-files-for-Outlook-Add%E2%80%90ins-issues

This is expected behaviour for Outlook versions installed from App Store. This was changed recently. Could you please uninstall the current version and install the latest version from https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/officeupdates/update-history-office-for-mac and see if the issue resolves?

@veris-kamaraj If you install the Outlook Mac from Microsoft website https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/officeupdates/update-history-office-for-mac, Get Add-ins button should open the Store Page shown in below screenshot:

Other option is to install the add-in via Outlook Web by launching the url https://aka.ms/olksideload. This url should open up the same Store Page shown above, and add-in can be installed from My Add-ins -> Custom add-in section. After installing the add-in from Outlook Web, restart Outlook Mac for the add-in to show up.

I am running into a similar issue. I created the basic setup using the yo tool and unified manifest. I could get into Outlook and sideload link to upload file. However the web outlook is looking for manifest.xml but will not allow loading manifest.json
