Read an azure queue from Dynamics CRM

Posted on by Community Member

Hi,

I'm working with Dynamics CRM (dynamics 365 trial) and an Azure queue. I'm using the Azure Service bus to communicate CRM with the queue.

I need to read the queue (on a scheduled basis) and perform actions within CRM depending on the content of the message (i.e. adding/removing Security roles to a list of users).

I'm already able to post messages to the queue with a step directly associated to the service endpoint via the Registration tool, or with a C# plugin.

BUT! I'm not sure how to create a listener or a recurring task that could be monitoring the queue for new messages, and how to do the actions from the message.

Any advice would be really appreciated.

Thanks!

Hi,

+1 to what Martijn wrote, but also Azure WebJobs would do the job:

RE: Read an azure queue from Dynamics CRM

For this scenario I would look at an Azure Function. It's great for job scheduling or on demand processes. Here's a good post on how to connect to crm from an Azure Function.
