I was trying to access a web service which I need to get some data from, however due to Dynamics 365 Online is a sandbox environment , I was not able to access the web service in the plugin, I have to access the data & use in in the plugin so using JSONP is impractical in my case.
Or do you guys have any clues on how to proceed? Thanks.
The below is a sample of accessing web data from a sandboxed plugin on the msdn site:
msdn.microsoft.com/.../gg509030.aspx
Hope this helps.
Hello Kentan,
Accessing an external webservice from a Dynamics 365 (CRM) Customer Engagement plug-in is possible.
Due to the sandbox limitations there's a few rules you need to follow but, outside of that everything works just like in other .NET code.
You mentioned you were not able to get the data, did you get an Exception?
If so, what was the Exception? And do you have a snippet of your code?

string output = wc.DownloadString("api.examplewebservice.com/customers");
