Need Help Connecting VS 2015 to Dynamics 365 ver 9.1

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Neil78 20

I've wasted so much time trying to connect VS 2015 to Dynamics 365 I'm hoping someone can help me restore my settings. I had to get a new machine and now trying to get back to the point where I can author custom reports and save in our D365 instance - it worked on my old machine, but now I'm dead in the water.

Microsoft Visual Studio Community 2015
Version 14.0.25431.01 Update 3
Microsoft .NET Framework
Version 4.8.04084

I have installed SSDT (ver 14.0.61712.050) as well as the required Dynamics Report Authoring Extension (ver 8.2.0002.0248). I can open my previous reports, but when I attempt to preview anything I am met with a login that throws errors at me. I am able to open a query, enter my credentials and get results from that query within VS, but I cannot preview any report.

I did attempt to download Telerik's Fiddler and modify the TSL, but it wasn't clear to me if I was fixing or causing issues. The software mentioned adding a certificate from "DO_NO_TRUST_..." which made me nervous.

Can anyone help me get this figured out?

Kind Regards,

Neil

    Hello,

    If you don't want to deal with Fiddler uninstall your v8.2 Report Authoring Extension and download/install v9.0 where this issue is not a thing - www.microsoft.com/.../details.aspx

    Andrew - You are a life saver! I figured there had to be a simple solution and you proved that to be true. I'm up and running now.

    Thanks for this!
