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.

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,

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.
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?

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

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.
I have a SharePoint 2010 site and my company also uses Microsoft Lync. I am creating a contact list in the sharepoint site and would like to have the person's lync profile as the listing in the contact list. Since we use photos in our Lync profiles and also are mandated to keep our Lync profiles up to date at all times I would minimize the maintenance int he SharePoint page where my contact list is displayed. How can I integrate and get what I want done out of these two application?
Since all Lync profile data is integrated with AD so you can sync all these AD fields in SharePoint and once that's done you can have Lync profile information SharePoint UserProfile .
I want to design an application to sync user information between local system and CRM online. I found we can't create user in CRM online through APIs directly as CRM on-premise. System said we only can add user through office 365 admin portal. But I have no idea about how to use office 365 APIs to create CRM online user. Did you guys encounter the situation before? Please help me, thanks!
Ok, let me answer my question. Right now if we want to operate Dynamics CRM Online User or License information, we need to operate Active Directory Graph Service associated with CRM Online. This Service is a web api based service. We can get the example code on "http://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/7e947621-ef93-4de7-93d3-d796c43ba34f", and current there is one helper library can be used you guys can download it on http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/windowsazure/Windows-Azure-AD-Graph-API-a8c72e18.
I am trying to connect SharePoint Online with Dynamics CRM Online using BDC, but I'm not getting any results.
I am trying to use Accounts from CRM in SharePoint Online like a list.
When I have 100 accounts (customers) in CRM I want to export these accounts to SharePoint Online like a list. And when I will bed edited account in CRM the elements in the list will be updated (when I edited element on SharePoint list it will update in CRM).
Is there any possibility to connect in this way? If there is then what I should use - SharePoint Designer 2010, Visual Studio or do this on web interface?
Girish Raja provides a great overview on how to integrate CRM Online and SharePoint Point via BCS. His MSDN blog post includes a link to his video presentation from TechEd in May (go to minute 35 in video) along with a link to the source code/instructions. His demo uses SharePoint on-premise but mentions that it will work with SharePoint Online once BCS is enabled. (which it is now).
According to this:
Msdn Blog: Microsoft Dynamics CRM integration with SharePoint Online is here
... this is how to do it:
Your Microsoft Dynamics CRM System Administrator must install the Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 List Component
Once enabled, the Microsoft Dynamics CRM user can open an Account
Click on Documents – If the Account does not have a corresponding Document Library in SharePoint Online one is automatically created
Unfortunately this cannot be done at this time - http://community.office365.com/en-us/f/154/t/2301.aspx
