Can you use Interop Assemblies with Office 365 client apps?
office-interop, office365, powershell
Solution
I bought Office 365 (Home) and installed it (the click-to-run installer). It must have the interop assemblies built in because the code runs fine and you can automate Excel via PowerShell just like usual.
I looked everywhere on the internet and didn't find a single person ever saying this. So, I'll be the first. Case closed.
Problem
With Office 2010/2013 you could download the PIA Primary Interop Assemblies and do stuff that would control Excel etc, like building an ad-hoc spreadsheet. ``` Add-Type -Assembly "Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel" $app = New-Object Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.ApplicationClass ``` Does the same thing work with the Excel in Office 365?
