Changing Connection String for ADX Portal CRM 2011

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hello all,

I'd like to know where I can change the username/password for the user account used to connect to the ADX Portal. Specficially, I'm looking for the location of this string so that I can modify the username or password if I ever need to:

"<connectionStrings>
    <add name="Xrm" connectionString="ServiceUri=http://crm2011/Contoso; Domain=CONTOSO; Username=webportal; 
Password=pass@word1"/>
    <add name="ADConnectionString" connectionString="
LDAP://contoso.com/CN=Users,DC=contoso,DC=com" />  
  <!--<add name="Live" connectionString="Application Id=0000000000000000; Secret=00000000000000000000000000000000"/>-->
    <!--<add name="Bus" connectionString="Service Namespace=???; Service Path=???; Issuer Name=???; Issuer Secret=???; Include Exception Detail In Faults=true"/>-->
  </connectionStrings>"

I'm referring to the account owner, CRM Portal, below. If the owner here ever changes, or if the password for the account changes, portal authentication will not occur. I want to prevent this by knowing where to update the credentials.

    The credentials are stored in the web.config of the portal site. It is the portal connecting to Crm and not the other way round. The owner in your screen shot is simply the record owner in CRM.

    Hope this helps,

    Scott
