    Hi,

    I can think of 2 options:-

    Option 1:- You can run Umbraco as a separate CMS system and open custom API endpoints based on your Desktop application requirement.

    Now, your Desktop application can consume these endpoints. This is the only approach I can think of on how you can merge the 2 systems.

    Option 2:- In Umbraco CMS, you can write events during save and store entry in your custom database/tables. Now, your Desktop application can interact with these custom database/tables and show results.

    Regards,

    Shaishav

    Exactly. That can work that you can have a common database for both Umbraco and Desktop application.
