- In the title bar to the right of the Dynamics 365 icon, select the name of application currently in view and then select Channel Integration Framework.
- Use the New + option to open a new screen where you can enter the Ooma Office integration details. Note that the New + option may not appear immediately. If you don’t see it, please wait a few minutes and then refresh your view to try again.

- On the same page, you will use the Select United Interface Apps for the Channel section to choose which United Interface Apps will integrate with Ooma Office:
- Choose All for the Ooma Office client to be globally available
- Choose specific apps if you’d like to limit the availability of the Ooma Office client Note that if you do not select any apps, the Ooma Office client won’t be visible to anyone.
- On the same page, you can use the Select the Roles for the Channel section to choose which user roles will be able to use the Ooma Office client. If you’d like Ooma Office client to be available to everyone, leave this section blank.
- The final Channel Provider Configuration window should look similar to this: When you have confirmed your configuration, Save your changes and close the window.
The setup process to configure the Ooma Office plugin within your Microsoft Dynamics 365 instance is now complete. The plugin should appear on the right side of the selected apps. Users don’t need to install anything; all they need to do is log in to Ooma Office with their Ooma login credentials.
