"napa" office 365 app not available in sharepoint store - sharepoint

I have been trying to add the "Napa" office 365 development tools app for my Office 365 developer site. But I'm not able to find the app in the sharepoint store. When searched directly in the office store, it is said: "This item has been removed from the store" (Please refer to the image attached).
Could anyone please help me in finding the Napa app?
Thanks in Advance,

Napa app from office store

This add-in isn’t available right now. Check back later to see if an updated version is available.
IMPORTANT: New name for apps for Office - Office Add-ins. We are currently updating our products, documentation, samples, and other resources to reflect the platform name change from "apps for Office and SharePoint" to "Office and SharePoint Add-ins". We made this change to better distinguish the extension platform from Office apps (applications). While these changes are taking place, the dialogs and messages you see in your application might be different than what you see in this article.

How do I set up an add-in catalog on office 365

I have been working through the following link:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/dn574752.aspx
I get to point 2. "In the left task pane, choose add-ins'
But in my sharepoint online admin I do not have this option.
From Office 365 I click Admin and go in to the Office 365 admin center.
Then down the left is the Admin section with Exchange, Skype, SharePoint, Compliance etc. I click on SharePoint.
Then the options are Site collections, InfoPath, user profiles, bcs, term store, records management, search, secure store, apps, settings, configure hybrid. There is no option called 'Add-in'.
I thought maybe the apps option might work / be the same thing. Any ideas?
glad you were able to get the add-in to load from the catalog. The name is going through a change from "Apps for Office" to Office add-ins as the note in the link above says.
For the second part of the question, the Excel file should open directly from downloading the workbook from the internet. I would make sure you can open other .xlsx files. Also note to run Office web add-ins you need Office 2013 or above.

show Lync contacts in Sharepoint 2013 sharepoint hosted app

I want to get the list of contacts from my Lync and show it in SharePoint 2013 using sharepoint hosted app (JSOM). Could anyone please help me out on this?
Here is a great site that outlines the technical options for interacting/extending Lync. I believe you are going to have to develop some custom code based on your initial requirement that you outline above:
http://www.codelync.com/an-overview-of-the-lync-apis/
The Microsoft Lync SDK is here:
Microsoft Lync 2010 SDK
Also, be aware that Lync is now branded "Skype for Business" and you will want to take that into account in reviewing the available API's.

Document management in MS Dynamics CRM 2013 without Sharepoint

As answered in other questions you can't use the free Sharepoint Foundation 2013 for document management in MS Dynamics CRM 2013.
So I ask if there is a (good *) way of using document management in Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2013 without using Sharepoint?
(* good = easy to understand for non technical users and not too complicated to manage)
I search for a way to attach all kinds of documents to different entities like:
- pictures to accounts (not profile picure)
- PDF documents to account
- ...
I know you can use notes.
I'm a bit confused because there are attachments on entities like email.
Can I integrate these attachment-functions on other entities like accounts?
edit 18.12.2014
Yes, you can use Sharepoint Foundation, we make it work (SP Foundation 2010).
I can use documentmanagement with sharepoint, but not automated because the crmlistcomponent is not working.
Maybe someone from here can help me over there:
My Question on Sharepoint stackexchange site
The attachments mechanism isn't available for common customizations, sadly. Microsoft wants us to use the notes... Except maybe ("maybe" as in "I never bothered to check due to the monstrous amount of hoops to jump through while having almost no benefits") for activity entites.
That said, you can use SP 2013 Foundation for document management, if you want. Here's the step-by-step guide. We deployed a CRM 2013 + Document Management based on SP Foundation just a couple of days ago following these steps.
To Run the Microsoft SharePoint Foundation Sandboxed Code Service, follow the below steps.
SharePoint Central Administrator
Under>> Service Applications
Manage services on server
Look for>>Microsoft SharePoint Foundation Sandboxed Code Service is running
Start the service
After completing all the 5 steps
To Install List Components in SharePoint
Go to Site Settings
Under>> Web Designer Gallery>> Click on “Solutions”
Click on Upload solution
and Click on Activate
To Set Broser File handling to Permissive
Go to SharePoint Central Administration
Application Management
On the Ribbon click onthe General Setting
Web Application Generation Setting pop-up window will appear
Scroll down to look for Browser file handling >> Select >>Permissive
Click Ok, save settings and restart the server/IIS
try to Activate the List compoent
Ensure the after successful activation will enable the Deactivate button.
Sometime it is very annoying you need to do several click to get this working.
Go to CRM and add the URL into Document management, all will work fine.
FYI the "CRM 2013" list component retains the 2011 look-and-feel.

where can I find information on sharepoint profile content editing?

My company is converting to Microsoft Office 365 and I have been tasked with migrating a JAVA program I wrote to update employee profiles in a MySQL database (a list of their accomplishments and areas of proficiency) to update the same information on Office 365 Sharepoint profiles. I am used to dealing with UNIX favors and not as familiar with Microsoft. Does anyone have suggestions on where to read up on Sharepoint and how to update user content with an external program?
Not sure if this will help you or not. It is the msdn page for sharepoint 2013 profiles.

Read data from Office 365 Active Directory

With the release of Office 365 can someone tell me the support available for custom visual sandboxed web parts created using Visual Studio 2010 SharePoint Power Tools that fetches an Office 365 active directory attribute values for a particular user? E.g. If my company already has existing users in a local Active Directory environment when I subscribe to Microsoft Office 365, there are tools for synchronizing those users to Office 365 directory. Let say I have synchronized my local Active Directory to Office 365 Directory, now is it possible to programmatically or OOTB way to read Office 365 directory attribute’s value for any Office 365 Directory user? I have a custom attributes added to my local Active Directory one of the attribute is “CC Number” and I want to get the value associated with this attribute for some XYZ user.
We have an Office 365 SharePoint application to which we would like to add either (or both) a custom sandboxed web part and a OOTB web part that only reads a data from an Office 365 Directory for respective Office 365 directory user.
Is this type of functionality supported with the first/current release of Office 365?
it's a really common scenario that organizations will move parts of their systems into the Microsoft Cloud by using Office365. In order to get rid of the additional AD management overhead you have to build a federation on AD level.
You need a SecureTokenService which does the authentication for your users. Microsofts implementation of STS is ADFS (ActiveDirectory Foundation Services) which could easily be plugged into an existing AD structure. Your AD has to be 2008 I think.
There is a good ebook from Dominick Baier and some other security guys available. It's called "Guide to claim based identity", you can read it online on http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff423674.aspx or there is anywhere a download it think... can't remember sry.
