Core SDK tasks

The Microsoft.Lync.Model.LyncClient class represents the SIP endpoint that can accept a set of user credentials and sign in to Microsoft Lync Server 2013. In addition, LyncClient can publish the signed-in user’s presence. Finally, LyncClient is the entry point for all further API functionality except for conversation automation. You access additional Lync 2013 API features by getting specialized feature manager class objects from properties of LyncClient. For example, you get a specialized contact manager by reading the Client.ContactManager property to get the Microsoft.Lync.Model.ContactManager object.
