What happened?
Description
When the add-in is operating in <ExtensionPoint xsi:type="DetectedEntity"> mode, the browser's native "Save Password" popup dialog appears as expected. However, clicking the Save button causes the dialog to immediately close without saving the credentials. This behavior is consistent and reproducible — the password is never saved.
Steps to Reproduce
- Load the add-in using an
ExtensionPoint of type DetectedEntity.
- Trigger the contextual add-in activation (e.g., by matching a regex rule in the message body).
- Wait for or trigger the browser's native "Save Password" popup to appear.
- Click the Save button in the popup.
Expected Behavior
Clicking Save should persist the credentials and dismiss the dialog normally.
Actual Behavior
The dialog closes immediately upon clicking Save and the password is not saved. This happens consistently every time.
Environment
- Extension point type:
DetectedEntity
- Manifest type: Add-in only manifest (XML)
- Outlook client: (please specify, e.g., Outlook on the web, classic Outlook on Windows)
- Browser/WebView: (please specify)
Additional Context
The issue appears to be related to the focus or lifecycle management of the contextual pane in DetectedEntity mode, which may be intercepting or suppressing the save action of the native credential dialog.
