Overview

This repository contains the code for the Microsoft.PowerPlatform.Dataverse.Client and its supporting assemblies and classes.

IMPORTANT NOTES

The Dataverse ServiceClient cannot be built outside of Microsoft This is due to a set of dependencies on nuget packages that are internally available only. At some point in the future, we will expose the supporting nuget packages when we have updated our server infrastructure to support plugin development on .net core.

This encompasses the contents of the following nuget packages:

Microsoft.PowerPlatform.Dataverse.Client

Microsoft.PowerPlatform.Dataverse.Client.Dynamics

This nuget package has been deprecated (for now) Microsoft.Dynamics.Sdk.Messages

This library is and its supporting assemblies are a revision and update of the Microsoft.Xrm.Tooling.Connector.CrmServiceClient and the underlying Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.Client libraries.

We encourage you to read the release notes we provide with each nuget packages. As with most of our Nuget packages that are intended as tools or for developer consumption, we extensively comment in release notes.

At this time: (06/13/2022) The Client SDK libs supports the following and has the following notices:

  • VS 2022 + .net 6 is required to build this project currently. see: global.json for current requirements.
  • .net full framework 4.6.2, 4.7.2, 4.8 and .net core 3.0, 3.1, 5.0, 6.0
  • We now support all authentication types from CrmServiceClient for .net framework, ( Client\Secret, Client\Cert, UID\PW Noninteractive, UID\PW interactive.)
  • We support the following authentication types from CrmServiceClient for .net core: Client\Secret, Client\Cert, UID\PW interactive.
  • Plugin Development using this Client is NOT supported at this time.

From a scenario point of view, we are particularity interested in any issues or challenges when using these library in either Asp.net Core, Azure Functions, and Linux based scenarios.

Note: We provide support for these nuget packages primarily via GitHub and Microsoft Support.
Github Issues is the preferred venue at this time as the development team is actively working on this library. A number of our dev's and PM's do monitor this channel and can respond to questions and feedback.

While we are monitoring the community forums, you are encouraged to open issue here
