# How to enable manual signature selection in the Outlook add-in?

If you wish to restore the option for users to choose their signature (new message, reply, internal or external), you can enable this option in a few steps.

By default, manual signature selection is disabled in the Outlook add-in. Signatures are automatically applied according to the context.

## **❶** Steps to enable manual selection

1.  Go to **Settings**
    
2.  Click on **Connectors**
    
3.  Select your **Outlook Add-in Connector**
    
4.  Scroll down to the **Signature selection management**

## **❷** Enable the option

-   Check **Enable manual selection**
    
-   Save your changes if necessary
    

## **❸** Result

Once activated:

-   Users will be able to manually choose their signature
    
-   The option will be available when composing an email
    
-   This applies to new messages and replies, both internally and externally

If the option is deactivated, the signature is automatically applied according to the rules defined in Signitic. The automation remains active, even if the option is enabled.
