Hi

You have to first create the user in Office 365 and then change it to Non-Interactive user. Each CRM instance can have up-to 5 non-interactive users.

Please follow the steps below to create a non-interactive user

Creating a non-interactive user? Follow these steps:

Create a user account in the Office 365 Admin Center.

Be sure to assign a Dynamics 365 (online) license to the account.

Go to Dynamics 365 (online).

Go to Settings > Security.

Choose Users > Enabled Users, and then click a user’s full name.

In the user form, scroll down under Administration to the Client Access License (CAL) Information section and select Non-interactive for Access Mode.

You then need to remove the Dynamics 365 (online) license from the account.

Go to the Office 365 Admin Center.

Click Users > Active Users.

Choose the non-interactive user account and under Product licenses, click Edit.

Turn off the Dynamics 365 (online) license, and then click Save > Close multiple times.

Go back to Dynamics 365 (online) and confirm that the non-interactive user account Access Mode is still set for Non-interactive.

Hello Kokulan,

Although this point i am able to use but trouble is that i am going with different approach.

i have register one app in azure and then created on user from there.

i need to access that user in my dynamics 365 CRM as application user so that i will be able to utilize secret key and application id for this application user.

how can utilize that let me know.

Hi

When you create an account behind the scene it is creating Azure AD account.

So the user you added via Office 365 Admin Centre for Non-Interactive user, should already be in your Azure AD page

[View:https://portal.azure.com/#blade/Microsoft_AAD_IAM/UsersManagementMenuBlade/AllUsers:750:50]

You need to set the following values in CRM for the non-interactive user for it to become an application user

You should be able to do this on application user form.

The 2 fields should auto populate based on the application id. They are supposed to be locked.

But very unfortunately these two fields are not automatically populated.

Only i see that "Azure Ad object ID" is added with some value.

Hello EmployeeOcta,

I had the same issue and after exhausting all the search & tries i ended up creating Application User via SDK.
Though this requies a console app connected to Online deployment using tooling connector. Once console app is ready with nuget package for tooling connector following code will work.

using System; using System.Net; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Configuration; using Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk; using Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.Query; using Microsoft.Xrm.Tooling.Connector; namespace updateData { class Program { static void Main(string[] args) { if (ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings.Count > 0) { try { string connString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["NGIOL"].ConnectionString; ServicePointManager.SecurityProtocol = SecurityProtocolType.Tls12; CrmServiceClient conn = new CrmServiceClient(connString); if (conn.IsReady) { IOrganizationService service = conn.OrganizationWebProxyClient != null ? (IOrganizationService)conn.OrganizationWebProxyClient : (IOrganizationService)conn.OrganizationServiceProxy; if (service != null) { Console.Clear();Console.WriteLine("Connected to CRM :" conn.CrmConnectOrgUriActual.ToString()); QueryExpression qecust = new QueryExpression("businessunit") { ColumnSet = new ColumnSet("name", "businessunitid"), Criteria = { Conditions = { new ConditionExpression("parentbusinessunitid", ConditionOperator.Null) } }, }; EntityCollection eccust = service.RetrieveMultiple(qecust); if (eccust.Entities.Count>0) { Entity bu = eccust.Entities[0]; EntityReference buref = new EntityReference(bu.LogicalName, bu.Id); QueryExpression qeuser = new QueryExpression("systemuser") { ColumnSet = new ColumnSet("systemuserid", "applicationid"), Criteria = { Conditions = { new ConditionExpression("applicationid",ConditionOperator.Equal, new Guid("")) } }, }; EntityCollection ecuser = service.RetrieveMultiple(qeuser); if (ecuser.Entities.Count==0) { Entity user = new Entity("systemuser"); user["applicationid"] = new Guid(""); user["firstname"] = "fname"; user["lastname"] = "lname"; user["internalemailaddress"] = "test@dummy.com"; user["businessunitid"] = buref; service.Create(user); } } } } else { throw new Exception(conn.LastCrmError); } } catch (Exception ex) { Console.WriteLine(ex.Message);Console.ReadLine(); } } } } }
