This seems to be a repeat, but we really need to be able to see an ER diagram of our database. We have Microsoft Dynamics 365 - Cloud, and we are stuck with going entity by entity and then clicking on show relationships. Tracing this back field by field to see a text description is painful and unclear. Please tell me someone has something that actually builds a real DIAGRAM.
Hi ChrisGriggs,
You can use the Metadata Diagram sample code provided for Dynamics 365 to generate the entity relationship diagrams manually.
Use metadata to generate entity diagrams (Developer Guide for Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement (on-premises)) | Microsoft Docs
If you have coding experience, a nifty little tool in the CRM SDK called MetaDiagramConsole.exe which allows you to generate Visio diagrams of entity relationship mappings.

In addition, there are three tools from XrmToolBox that is ideal for users who have no coding experience:
