scenario where we can innovate, and dazzle our Siebel Clients….
But I have never implemented any Social integration using EAI concepts, but with the help of Siebel Open UI we gonna implement LinkedIN in Siebel…looking forward we will have fun ..
Scenario:
We all know that we have list of contacts inside Contact List View in Siebel App. Now, as per the requirement Client wants a button called LinkedIN Profile. And this button will popup a new window where we can see that contact’s LinkedIn profile.
Just think, to implement this what steps do we need to follow??

- Customize UI to show relevant data from LinkedIn for that contact
