How to Automate Data Import Processes in Dynamics 365 for Sales?

Posted on by

Hello everyone,

I'm currently working on a project where I need to regularly import large datasets into Dynamics 365 for Sales from an external system. The data includes accounts, contacts, and custom entities. Manually importing this data is time-consuming, and I'm looking for ways to automate the process.

My questions are:

  1. What are the best practices for automating data imports in Dynamics 365?
  2. Can Power Automate be used effectively for this purpose, or are there better tools available?
  3. How can I ensure data integrity and handle exceptions during the import process?
  4. Are there any recommended strategies for scheduling imports and monitoring their success?

Any guidance or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!
