# SignNow for Word and Excel

# SignNow add-in for Microsoft Word 365 and Excel 365

The [SignNow for Microsoft 365](https://marketplace.microsoft.com/en-sa/product/Office365/WA200009828) add-in allows you to complete documents and collect signatures directly from Word 365 and Excel 365, without switching tabs or dealing with disconnected tools.

# Prerequisites

**Note**: The SignNow add-in is currently available for **Microsoft Word Online** and **Microsoft Excel Online** (Microsoft 365).

1. A Microsoft OneDrive account.
2. SignNow account on the US server with an active [Site License subscription](https://snseats.signnow.com/purchase/business_plans/pricing).

**Note**: The SignNow add-in may not be available in all billing regions on the Microsoft App Marketplace. If you see a *"This add-in is not available in your billing region"* error, verify the billing region configured in your Microsoft account settings — the error can appear even in regions where the add-in is listed. If the issue persists, contact SignNow support.

## Installation

Open your document in Word or Excel and click **Home** > **More (…)** in the top ribbon, then select **Add-ins** from the dropdown.

## Team collaboration in SignNow

### Where documents are stored in SignNow

When **Keep document copies in SignNow** and **Save in default workspace Team folder** are enabled in [Document Storage](/docs/word-excel-add-in-document-storage), documents sent from the add-in are stored in the Documents folder of your default workspace Team, shared with everyone in that workspace.

> If your account already has a dedicated **OneDrive integration** folder under Private Teams from an earlier installation, it is still supported and continues to store documents sent from the add-in.

### Team settings (legacy accounts)

If you still use the **OneDrive integration** team, you can add users and customize its sending preferences directly from your SignNow account dashboard.

- Go to **Settings > Private Teams.**
- Locate the **OneDrive integration** team and click **Open Team**.

From here, you can:

- **Invite members:** Click **Add Users** to invite colleagues to the team.
- **Configure sending:** In the **Sending Settings** section, set up a default email address for all document invites.
- **Rename Team:** Change the team name if desired.
