The core SDK script, VSS.SDK.js, enables web extensions to communicate to the host, Azure DevOps Services, frame. This script also initializes, notifies that the extension loaded, or gets context about the current page. Get the Client SDK `VSS.SDK.js` file and add it to your web app.
With service hooks, you can do tasks on other services when events happen in your project. For example, create a card in Trello when a work item gets created or send a push notification to your team's mobile devices when a build fails. Service hooks can also be used in custom apps and services, as a more efficient way to drive activities when events happen in your projects.

You can export a work item type as xml using the `witadmin` tool, which includes the layout of the work item form. As part of this example, we add the page, group, and control contributions to the layout. We also add the control to the Agile "User Story" work item type. For more information, see [WebLayout xml](../../reference/xml/weblayout-xml-elements.md).

A work item type can be exported as XML using `witadmin` tool, that includes the layout of the work item form. As part of the walkthrough, you add the page, group, and control contributions to the layout. [Read more information on WebLayout XML](../../reference/xml/weblayout-xml-elements.md). In this example, we add the control to the Agile "User Story" work item type.

<strong>Step 3:</strong> This creates a file in the directory that you specified. Inside this file, navigate to the section called "WebLayout". Inside the <code>Weblayout</code> Section a comment blob is present that specifies what extensions targeting work item form are installed in your collection. For each extension, all its form contributions are listed with their IDs and inputs (if it's a Control contribution). In the example below, the comment shows that the "color-control-dev" extension has been installed on the collection which has one control contribution that takes 2 inputs -

3. Inside this file, go to the **WebLayout** section. Inside the WebLayout section, a comment blob specifies which installed extensions target work item forms for your collection. For each extension, all its form contributions are listed with their IDs and inputs (if it's a Control contribution). In the following example, the comment shows the *color-control-dev* extension installed on the collection. The extension has one control contribution that takes two inputs.
<strong>Step 5:</strong> Add an extension tag below the "Work Item Extensions" section as shown below to make your extension available to the work item form. To place a contribution inside the form, its extension must be specified in the Extensions section.

We recommend you use the basic styles provided via the Widget SDK. Using these styles helps you quickly and easily create a widget that's consistent with the rest of the widgets on the dashboard.

To use these styles, add the below line inside the `VSS.require` block in the JavaScript code for your widget.
The HostDialogService enables you to present a modal dialog to the user and prevent interaction with all parts of web access until the dialog is dismissed.
In contrast to the standard dialog control, a modal dialog presented via the HostDialogService prevents interaction by the user on the entire page, not just within the extension.
Azure DevOps supports cross-origin resource sharing (CORS). CORS enables JavaScript code served from a domain other than `dev.azure.com/*` to make Ajax requests to Azure DevOps Services REST APIs. For this to work, each request must provide credentials (personal access tokens and OAuth access tokens are both supported options). Example:
Client libraries are available for .NET developers who build Windows apps and services that integrate with Azure DevOps. Client libraries integrate with work item tracking, version control, build, and other services. These packages replace the traditional TFS Client OM installer and make it easy to acquire and redistribute the libraries needed by your app or service.
WIT and Test Client OM are part of the broader TFS SDK. They are a set of SOAP-based APIs that can be used to create tools to run operations against the Azure DevOps. These SOAP-based APIs have been replaced by the set of modern REST-based endpoints. Therefore we are in the process of deprecating the SOAP-based APIs (Client OM) for WIT and Test.
> The following guidance is intended for Azure DevOps Services users since OAuth 2.0 is not supported on Azure DevOps Server. [Client Libraries](../../concepts/dotnet-client-libraries.md) are a series of packages built specifically for extending Azure DevOps Server functionality. For on-premises users, we recommend using [Client Libraries](../../concepts/dotnet-client-libraries.md), Windows Auth, or [Personal Access Tokens (PATs)](../../../organizations/accounts/use-personal-access-tokens-to-authenticate.md) to authenticate on behalf of a user.
