Hello,do you know if it is possible to create a virtual entity in the Dynamics 365 linked to a real time materialized view in cosmos db?in this way i should have near-real time updated data, right?Thank you,Ale.
Hello Ale,
D365 CE has virtual entities for your use:
docs.microsoft.com/.../create-edit-virtual-entities
We have a preview for connectivity to Azure Cosmos DB: docs.microsoft.com/.../virtual-entity-documentdb-provider-requirements
hope this helps.
Regards,
thank you,(i know that there is the possibility to use virtual entities)
but my question was specific about Materialized View, if they can be used as source for the virtual entities
and if the data presented in the crm using those MV is near real time refreshed.BTW all the links that i find are based on the OnPrem version, i wonder if it works also for the online, do you know that?
Hello There,
Yes, it works for online. It will request the latest available information everytime that you access a record or a view from the entity. It will connect if you use the connection types mentioned on the links.

Please check the considerations and the connection options over here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/maker/common-data-service/create-edit-virtual-entities#considerations-when-you-use-virtual-entities
