How to use Get-CrmConnection

Posted on by Kipetcoff 1,000

Hi,

I try to use PowerShell to connect to Dynamics 365 online, but get errors. 

Get-CrmConnection -Interactive

I found this guide https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/powerapps/get-started-connector?view=pa-ps-latest 

I downloaded this version MicrosoftDynamics365SDK.

Went through all steps

  1. At the prompt, change your directory to the folder that contains the PowerShell.dll file and the script for registering the cmdlets. For example: cd c:\SDK\bin
  2. Run the RegisterXRMTooling.ps1 script to register the XRM tooling PowerShell assembly, and install the Windows PowerShell snap-in. Type the following command, and press ENTER: .\RegisterXRMTooling.ps1
  3. Add the Windows PowerShell snap-in. This registers the Get-CrmConnection and Get-CrmOrganizations cmdlets. Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.Xrm.Tooling.Connector

Now I get connections error

This is strange because all other tools work fine.

What I'm doing wrong?

I tried modern tools https://docs.microsoft.com/dynamics365/customer-engagement/developer/download-dynamics-365-sdk-v9 , but there is no RegisterXRMTooling at all.

Where is it?

How should I connect to

    I found solution.

    Here is article about it https://xrmdynamicscrm.wordpress.com/2020/09/13/dynamics-crm-connect-to-cds-using-xrmtooling-from-powershell/

    I got error with command Install-Module -Name Microsoft.Xrm.Tooling.CrmConnector.PowerShell, but I tried it on other computer and it works.

    Then I executed [System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [System.Net.SecurityProtocolType]::Tls12

    I've tried different logins from different regions.

    Here is the log.

    Looks like problem with connection address, may be something has changed in v9.

    As I understand this approach for v8 and earlier, and there is no update for v9.

    Hi Andrey Paltusov,

    Please make sure first that your inputs are correct. 

    Double-check your region, from the note pad copy your user name and password and then paste them to the connection screen. If the issue is still there then, please error here. You can find errors by clicking on the view errors log link

    Let me know if I can provide you with more details.

    Thanks
