Abstract
Systems and methods for integrating a third-party service into a host application enable multiple modes of integration of the data from the third-party services into the host application. The multiple modes include a first mode of integration that involves a data connection to a third-party service, a second mode of integration that involves the use of third-party extensions that provide predefined user interface elements for interacting with the third-party service, and a third mode of integration that involves the use of an iFrame element in the host application for hosting the third-party service. The modes may be activated and switched from within the application so that the user does not have to leave the context of the application to interact with the third-party service.
