Microsoft Dynamics 365 Share Share via LinkedIn Reddit Email Copy Link Print On This Page Overview Create, retrieve, update, and delete entity records in Dynamics Version 9 and Dynamics 365. For information that pertains to all connected systems, see Connected System Object. Properties Two forms of authentication are available for Dynamics: Authorization Code (per user) and Client Credentials (single system login). Authorization Code authentication Each Appian user will be required to sign in to their Dynamics account to authenticate. You must provide users a way to authenticate using OAuth 2.0. See Dynamics OAuth 2.0 Code Grant Flow for more details. The Dynamics Authorization Code authentication has the following properties: Field Description Instance URL* Required. Instance URL will be used for authorization. This URL is used to configure your integration object and when executing your operations. For example https://company-name.crm.dynamics.com Application (Client) ID* Required. In the Azure portal, navigate to Azure Active Directory, select App Registrations, and then select your application. The Application (client) ID will be listed on this page. Directory (Tenant) ID* Required. In the Azure portal, navigate to Azure Active Directory, select App Registrations, and then select your application. The Directory (tenant) ID will be listed on this page. Client Secret* Required/Sensitive. In the App registrations page, select your application from the list, select Certificates & secrets, and then navigate to Client secrets. Add a new client secret and click Add. The generated key value is the Client Secret and must be copied before leaving this page. * This value is included in an import customization file so that you can specify a different value for each environment. Sensitive values will not be exported in the import customization file and must be added manually. Required fields must have a value upon import or else import will fail. For more information on import/export behavior, see the Connected Systems Object page. Click AUTHORIZE to use the provided configuration information to authorize the designer in a new window. See OAuth 2.0: Authorization Code Grant for more details. Client Credentials authentication Provide a single Dynamics user's credentials to authenticate. All integrations will use a shared Dynamics service account. Individual Appian users do not need their own Dynamics accounts. See Dynamics OAuth 2.0 Client Credentials Flow for more details. Microsoft community also provides a helpful Setup Guide. The Dynamics Client Credentials authentication has the following properties: Field Description Instance URL* Required. Instance URL will be used for authorization. This URL is used to configure your integration object and when executing your operations.
