Use Microsoft Lync Server 2010 Server SDK to create Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) server applications that customize and extend the functionality of Lync Server 2010.

Server SDK provides the following:

• Lync Server 2010 Application API documentation

• Sample applications using the Lync Server 2010Application API

• Lync Server 2010Application API library (serverAgent.dll) and application development tools

Lync Server 2010 Application API is for:

• Developers who want to use Application Manifests and Microsoft SIP Processing Language (MSPL) scripts to implement simple custom SIP message filtering and routing on computers in a Lync Server 2010 deployment.

• Experienced SIP developers who want to create SIP-based managed code server applications that implement real-time content delivery or instant messaging infrastructure, including applications that work directly with SIP transaction objects or support multithreaded transactions.

Caution
The WMI-based Lync Server Management API is deprecated in the Lync Server 2010 release. The functionality is now supported by the Lync Server 2010 PowerShell Commandlets. For more information, see Registering a SIP Application with Lync Server and Managing a SIP Application on Lync Server.
