With protocol activation, you can embed code in your HoloLens application to switch to Dynamics 365 Remote Assist and begin a call. For example, let’s say you’re creating a helicopter maintenance app. You can add a button within your app that a maintenance engineer can use to call an expert if they get stuck. The button will launch Remote Assist and call the designated expert.
