Sammanfattning: The healthcare sector is still using paper transcripts for daily tasks that could very well be managed with digital solutions. One of the areas that can utilize digitization are health evaluation forms that patients fill out. This thesis addresses the implementation och the integration of a healthcare service. The product requires that the service’s back-end and database is further developed for later integration into Microsoft Outlook with an Office add-in. In addition, it provides a review on Office add-ins and the ideal API authorization method for the system. An agile methodology is adopted for project management and the chosen software development method is use case driven. To summarize the results, it can be determined that the use cases are successfully implemented and that relevant experience is collected for answering the various aspects regarding Office add-ins. The existing API authorization method was incorrectly implemented, but despite that, the API keys method is deemed suitable for the system.
