Hi Azure,
Our customers want to know if ACS is suitable for migrating from the existing system.
We are on ACS-PoC phase and found that ACS does call Skype APIs but we could not find any document that mentions "calling Skype APIs".
We are worried about the security issue when calling Skype APIs. And we want to know:

  1. Documentation describing ACS calling Skype APIs.
  2. Can we customize so that we don't have to call Skype APIs? (as we know Skype APIs are TURN server).

Thanks in advance for any help you are able to provide.

    Hello @RhinozD ,

    As I mentioned in your other post, the underlying tech for ACS is based on Microsoft Teams, not Skype necessarily. So there is no Skype API available. Here are some helpful documentations:
    Skype for Business Online Retirement
    ACS SDKs and REST APIs

    Best,
