I'm currently implementing Nested App Authentication for an Outlook Add-in, and the authentication flow is working as expected when supported.
However, I need to test the fallback mechanism that should trigger when Nested App Authentication is not supportedby the host Outlook client.
Is there a recommended way to simulate or force this unsupported scenario for testing purposes—either via configuration, environment, or specific client versions?
Any guidance or workaround to validate the fallback logic would be greatly appreciated.
