Our client need is to implement Chat and video call using Azure communication service in Xamarin forms Mobile App for Android and IOS.
I looked into so many Microsoft Learn but never see anything related to Xamarin forms implementation.

Is ACS supports in xamarin forms?
if yes, what are the nuget packages?
is there any official documents with sample projects?

Need a quick help?

Thanks

    @Ray, Gyanendra Thank you for your question and interest in ACS.

    We verified with the product group that ACS should work with Xamarin. @Rob Caplan - MSFT is correct in that the approach is to use the ACS .NET SDK within your Xamarin application. The exception to this real time functionality for chats will not work within Xamarin.

    Unfortunately, there is no official documentation on using ACS within Xamarin at this time. We suggest you request this documentation on the Azure Feedback site, which the product group reviews frequently on items to address next. We will also share this feedback in our sync with the ACS product group later this week.

    Please let us know if you have any further questions or concerns on this matter.
