We have a requirement to access Outlook through Windows Store App (Metro) using JavaScript.
Is this possible?
Thanks.

According to MSDN forum, there is no API to get/insert appointments from an app on the system to Outlook. If the appointments are server based (from Exchange, Live, etc.) you might be able to access/insert them through a web service.

Using the Outlook REST API, I want to make a browser extension (To-Do). I need graph api and the REST Task API. I make this application only for myself (maybe I will add it on github). Tell me, should I register an account as a commercial developer? Do I need to confirm for this application? Is it free? Where can I register the application? thank
I suggest you go through the Quick Start documentation, which will help you pick the appropriate platform and walk you through registering your Graph application. Also join the Office 365 Developer Program which will give you a free Office 365 developer subscription that you can use.
I am developing an outlook addin that syncs my application(abc) contacts with my outlook contacts. I am unable to do it using javascript.
You may use EWS or Outlook REST API from your web-based add-ins. See EWS Managed API, EWS, and web services in Exchange for more information.
Note, Mail Apps are run in the context of a particular Outlook item. That's why I'd recommend developing a COM add-in instead. It can be run with Outlook and handle a lot of actions that users do to keep in sync with your application all contacts. See Walkthrough: Creating Your First VSTO Add-In for Outlook to get started quickly.
Thanks for looking.
I need to develop an add-in for the Skype for Business UI similar to the way in which one can develop an add-in for Excel or Outlook. Is this possible?
I have found documentation and several tutorials for using the Skype APIs to integrate Skype for Business with other applications, but I can't find much with regards to building an add-in for Skype for Business itself.
I would like to be able to do things like add custom menu items to the Skype for Business UI, Integrate a custom conversation window extension, capture and use data from the chat window, contacts list, etc. To be clear, I am looking to do all of this above board with the user's approval.
Any answers, advice, links, etc. are appreciated.
There is not really an add-in system for Skype For Business. In the Lync days, the solution to offer additional content was via Conversation Window Extensions or CWEs and I believe they still function in some for for Skype for Business, but the technology itself is not updating at this point.
Your desire for greater customization of the client software lends itself to implementing a custom client/functionality using the Unified Communications Web API - a RESTful Web API, but you might find yourself limited in that Microsoft is providing a JavaScript SDK and tools for Android/iOS with an App SDK. If UCWA is the route you go there is quite a bit of documentation on MSDN for implementing the basic tasks.
I have created UCMA trusted application using C# console application.
I want to monitor all Lync Users instant messaging calls (in one place) as well as store their conversations in the database via this console application.
Is it possible?.
If possible, please give an idea or any url.
UCMA trusted applications will only respond to traffic to the endpoints associated with that application so if you want to monitor all instant message traffic it would be the wrong API.
I would suggest using SIP Application API http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/hh364644(v=office.14).aspx to create a server application. This will also require the use of MSPL documented here
As Dai has asked - is the console application a requirement or will a windows service be ok?
Try our this sample application SipSnoop it basically shows all the metadata passing throught the lync server, you can tweak around it according to your requirement.
I want to write an App (Windows Store App) which should display all my unread emails. I did my research at google and msdn but found nothing suitable.
The problem is as follow, my development pc does not have any connection to a exchange server, so I had to write an app (C#/XAML) which should later on work:
On every PC in the organisation
Uses the default credentials of the user
Displays the unread emails
Is it possible to get these information (Emails) by asking the EWS?
Is there a WinRT compatible Library to do this?
Thanks!
I did not found any good solution to request the Exchange Webservice from my Windows Store App.
The only solution I have now implemented was to use a own webservice which can use the EWS Managed API to send requests to the Exchange Server (higher than 2007).
The Windows Store App itself communicates via WCF with my Proxy-Webservice like it is done here
