How to create an API user account.

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 285

I need to create another API user account for CRM 2015 for SOAP requests. I could use some instructions as I'm having difficulty finding any articles on this process.

I've created an Active Directory user and created a corresponding user through the CRM interface and gave it the System Customizer security role. I suspect that I will need to create an SQL login as well for this user, but I'm not sure if its necessary or what the details of that process would be.

For reference, I'm using this PHP library: github.com/.../php-dynamics-crm-2011

    Hello,

    There is absolutely no need to do anything on SQL Side. Just give that user security role and that's it.
