I have taken over a previously written office add-in with yeoman. I have been changing settings and else but after the initial install to see how far it has gone I believe m
Just wanted to give you my experience to complete previous answers:
I am developping a web add-in for Outlook 2013 with Angular 6 and with an authentication process using OAuth (going through OneLogin). I was able to authenticate and see the main view of my add-in in Outlook Web App (Chrome or IE as I sometimes have to debug on these two). Things happened differently in the desktop version, sadly. In Outlook 2013, I could only give my credentials once, access to my main view, but once I closed the task pane and I wanted to relaunch the add-in, I was blocked on the loading.
I figured it was probably a problem with Outlook 2013 cache, and maxpaj's answer did the trick ! I added the cache control headers to my index.html file and problem solved :) So thank you maxpaj for saving my time !
