Wingman
par Excellence IT (UK)
Wingman connects Outlook and SharePoint for seamless email and document management.
Wingman is an Outlook web add-in that connects Outlook and SharePoint, making it easier for users to manage email and documents without leaving their inbox.
Many day-to-day tasks in Microsoft 365 still involve unnecessary steps—opening an email, downloading an attachment, navigating to SharePoint, uploading the file, then going back to Outlook. Wingman removes that friction by allowing users to work with SharePoint directly from Outlook.
With Wingman, users can upload emails and attachments straight to SharePoint, attach existing SharePoint files to outgoing emails, and make sure documents are stored in the right location from the start. This helps teams spend less time moving files around manually and more time working with the information that matters.
Wingman is designed for organizations that want a more efficient and structured way to handle email-based documents in Microsoft 365 while keeping SharePoint as the central system for document storage and management.
Benefits
Reduce manual file handling
Wingman cuts out repetitive steps such as downloading attachments locally and re-uploading them to SharePoint. Users can complete common document tasks directly inside Outlook.
Keep content in the right place
Important emails and attachments often stay buried in personal inboxes. Wingman helps move that content into SharePoint, where it can be stored, organized, and managed alongside the rest of the business’s documents.
Improve consistency across teams
By making it easier to save content to SharePoint as part of normal email workflows, Wingman encourages more structured and consistent document handling across projects, departments, and teams.
Support governance and compliance
When emails and attachments are stored in the correct SharePoint locations, organizations gain better visibility, stronger control over records, and improved alignment with document management policies.
Work more efficiently in Microsoft 365
Wingman helps users stay in Outlook while still interacting with SharePoint, reducing context switching and making common Microsoft 365 workflows faster and easier.

It is especially useful wherever email and document management are closely connected and where consistency in storage matters.
