Hi there everyone,

I have created a code Activity plugin that based on Account confirmation, it should send some of Account fields to a called API.

for calling that API I had installed Refit Package from NuGet.

After registering the DLL in plugin registration, and Using it in a workflow, it couldn't load the Refit Assembly, so the workflow going to waiting status.

I have copied The Refit DLL to these directories,

-C:\Program Files\Dynamics 365\CRMWeb\bin

-C:\Program Files\Dynamics 365\Server\bin\assembly

Do I have to also put main all into the bin\assembly folder?

Do I have to register the Refit DLL?

I'm using Dynamics 365 on premise

Regards,

I have the same question (0)

The best way for you is to use ILMerge. Check this post on how you can do it - nishantrana.me/.../

Hi there,

Thanks mobeenmohsin and Andrew for your help,

from this article www.thrives.be/.../

I could Merge my DLL with Newtonsoft.Json.dll.

But I think some version problems I have now, at the end I get ISV error.

I remember that I had such an issue once and the reason was related to the wrong version of the Framework that plugin assembly used and the target Framework I used.
