[Vtigercrm-developers] how and where to add a custom setting?

[Boris CLEMENT]

Hello,

You may use WSAPP module which manage synchronization between entites in 
CRM and external applications.

Some applications/services (Outlook, Google calendar sync) already use 
WSAPP implementation and I think you can have a look on this feature.

Please share your feedback.

Regards,

Boris
