This section provides information on how you can use the User Interface Integration (UII) components to extend Unified Service Desk to integrate with external applications, web applications, and computer telephony integration (CTI) systems. It also provides information on how to customize Unified Service Desk by developing custom hosted controls and panel layouts.

Unified Service Desk provides you with a host of Microsoft Visual Studio project templates that you can use to create a UII application adapter, a UII web adapter, a UII customer search control (Windows Forms and Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF)), a UII hosted control (Windows Forms and WPF), a UII CTI adapter, a custom Unified Service Desk hosted control, and a custom panel layout. You can get the project templates in one of the following ways:

Download the CRM SDK template from the Visual Studio gallery. Double-click the CRMSDKTemplates.vsix file to install the template in Visual Studio.
Download and install the CRM SDK package. In the SDK\Templates folder, double-click the CRMSDKTemplates.vsix file to install the template in Visual Studio.

Note

The templates work with Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 or Visual Studio 2013. Additionally, you must have NuGet Package Manager for Visual Studio 2012 or Visual Studio 2013.

For information about the UII concepts that you must know to extend Unified Service Desk, see Unified Service Desk and the UII framework.
