Developed an outlook web addin using VS 2022, used custom icon which is only visible through web but not on desktop outlook client. How to make it visible on the outlook client?

any idea or solutions are welcome, thanks

manifest Icon code:

<IconUrl DefaultValue="~remoteAppUrl/Images/icon64.png"/>

I have tried changing it, clearing cache, re publish & redeploy locally Everything works when I run it in chrome, The icon and ribbon changes in browser but it is not reflecting in desktop outlook client

You need to specify the absolute full URL in the manifest.

The IconUrl element allows specifying the full, absolute URL of the image that is used to represent your Office Add-in in the insertion UX, AppSource, and the vertical task pane tab bar.

I can confirm that it works on my side in outlook desktop. Try clearing the browser and application cache, see Clear the Office cache for more information.
