Integration Summary

This integration is used to add the Call Dropdown list.png, Call icon.png and Chat icon.png buttons to an Product name - ev sas.png application so users can launch the Skype client installed on their workstation with one click. Users can then automatically make a call and/or display an instant message window with a predefined contact.

        Example documentation icon EN.png  You can create and configure shared Skype accounts and let multiple users sign into the same account at the same time (on different computers). Users of your applications can then call these contacts (e.g. Service Desk, HR Services, Home) at any time.
