Preview Sigsync Server-Side Signatures

The Sigsync Signatures Outlook Add-in (Client-side mode) automatically adds signatures to the email body while composing emails in Outlook. If you have configured Mixed mode (both Server-side and Client-side mode) signatures, you can preview server-side signatures by switching the signature mode to 'Cloud Mode' in the Add-in pane.

Instructions to administrators:

  • To allow your Microsoft 365 users to preview Sigsync server-side signatures in Outlook, you have to :
  1. Set up Sigsync server side (cloud) mode signatures
  2. Deploy the Sigsync signatures Outlook Add-in
  3. Enable the option to switch between client mode and cloud mode
  4. Switch the signature mode to cloud mode in the Outlook Add-in pane
  • If you have set up Sigsync Mixed Mode signature, to preview cloud email signatures using the Outlook Add-in, you must enable the ‘Cloud Mode’ in the Add-in pane.
  • The Outlook Addin's preview feature is intended for end users since there is no built-in method to preview a cloud email signature after sending an email. For a specific user’s signature preview, you can use the signature preview pane in the Sigsync editor.

Additionally, if you've set up different signatures for new and subsequent emails, you can also preview these signatures directly from the Add-in pane.

If you have set specific keywords in the signature rule to include or exclude signatures, enter the appropriate phrases in the email subject and/or body, and the preview will appear accordingly in the Add-in pane. For instance, the below screenshot shows including the keyword #nodisclaimer in the email subject line removes the disclaimer from the signature.
