To enable access to a feature, such as for testing purposes, a secret globally unique identifier (GUID) is input into a designated interface of the application, and a request is sent to enable the external service feature, wherein the request provides an indication to provide resources to interact with the external service feature. The application receives the resources and enables interaction with the external service feature via the productivity application by providing an interface within the productivity application for interacting with the external service feature.
