    Hi Wayne,

    Thanks for reaching out. 

    uberAgent can only report on add-in load times for Outlook plugins. There is no inventory-like report built in. However, you could create a custom search to see which Outlook add-ins are loaded on which host. 

    Unfortunately, Outlook is the only Office application that logs add-in load times to the event log, so we can't provide data for other Office applications such as Word, Excel, or PowerPoint.

    I hope this helps.

    Thanks, Julian

    Thanks for that.   We're probably more concerned with knowing what these Office addins are rather than knowing their load times (for Outlook, Word, Excel and Powerpoint)

    Hi Wayne,

    Thanks for your quick reply. I understand your use case. Unfortunately, other Office applications like Word, Excel, or PowerPoint don't log their information in a way that uberAgent can query.

    However, I just created a short Splunk search that can be used to see which add-ins are running on which host. This search could help you answer the question of which add-in is installed in Outlook and on which host.

    | pivot `uA_DM_Application_OutlookPluginLoad` Application_OutlookPluginLoad
        dc(host) as "Machine count"
        values(host) as hosts
        splitrow Name 
    | stats values(hosts) as Hosts dc("hosts") as "Machine count" by Name 
    | rename Name as "Add-in name"

    I hope this helps.

    Thanks, Julian
