Skype Web SDK - Skype For Business Online


I am trying to work with Skype Web SDK with Skype for Business Online and I downloaded the samples provided by Microsoft, but I get an error when trying to log in (similiar to this post). I found out in the same post that the SDK doesn't support SfB Online. I also found the same answer from the Skype Web SDK FAQ.

But then I spoke to a company that specializes in corporate Skype implementation saying that SfB Online is supported by the SDK, which was contrary to what I found out.

So my question is: Is SfB Online supported by the SDK?

Any help is appreciated!


Solution

  • No the S4B online accounts are not supported by the Web SDK until now. it's only supported by Lync (Client) 2013 SDK.

    See the comparison table here:

    Update:

    As of March 24 the skype web sdk now supports SfB online accounts, it has 2 versions GA and public preview and they're both support online accounts but vary in capabilities, please see the differences here:
