I'm developing an Excel AddIn and faced one issue.

  • 1st issue: When user inserts the AddIn to the Excel (web) - user needs to click any ribbon command to start loading plugin files.
  • 2nd issue: When plugin already inserted, the files are being downloaded. However, if user click any command before files downloaded, nothing happens.

I can disable all commands and enable them when source code downloaded. BUT this not works when user inserts AddIn for the first time. He MUST click any command to start downloading source code.

Question: is there any solution to force load Excel AddIn source on initial insertion?

P.S. Startup behavior works only for the next opening of AddIn. If manifest has something similar - would be nice to know.

Env: Excel (on the web), OfficeJS API, Shared runtime, windows (if it's matter)

P.P.S. The problem - user clicks on enabled button to open taskpane, but nothing happens (the downloading just started).
