The [!INCLUDEpn_hosted_application_toolkit_hat] facilitates the task of automating the user interface (UI) of a hosted application. It consists of data-driven adapters (DDA), descriptive bindings, and automations ([!INCLUDEpn_ms_Windows_short] workflows) to automate the applications. In addition, [!INCLUDEpn_user_inteface_integration_uii] contains the [!INCLUDEpn_hosted_application_toolkit_hat] Software Factory that’s used to create an application hosting solution in [!INCLUDEpn_Visual_Studio].
[!INCLUDEpn_hat] contains tools that can be used to configure hosted applications, such as external, web, or [!INCLUDEpn_Java] applications, and make them available to a [!INCLUDEpn_uii_acronym] desktop, such as [!INCLUDEpn_unified_service_desk]. [!INCLUDEpn_hat] uses [!INCLUDEpn_windows_workflow_foundation_wf] and an extensible UI integration framework to provide application automation for [!INCLUDEpn_uii_acronym]. Workflows created for [!INCLUDEpn_hat] are referred to as automations, and the extensible application framework components are referred to as data-driven adapters (DDAs). [!INCLUDEpn_uii_acronym] ships with four DDAs. [!INCLUDEproc_more_information] Understanding Hosted Application Toolkit (HAT) Architecture
