Examples

// You can use the value of the InitializationEnumeration to implement different logic for
// when the add-in is first inserted versus when it is already part of the document.
// The following example shows some simple logic that uses the value of the reason parameter
// to display how the task pane or content add-in was initialized.
Office.initialize = function (reason) {
 // Checks for the DOM to load using the jQuery ready method.
 $(document).ready(function () {
 // After the DOM is loaded, code specific to the add-in can run.
 // Display initialization reason.
 if (reason === Office.InitializationReason.Inserted) {
 write("The add-in was just inserted.");
 }

 if (reason === Office.InitializationReason.DocumentOpened) {
 write("The add-in is already part of the document.");
 }
 });
}

// Function that writes to a div with id='message' on the page.
function write(message) {
 document.getElementById('message').innerText += message;
}
