"Refresh from Dynamics 365" button missing from Excel

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 35
We previously were using the CRM Outlook Client add-in for tracking emails, etc... We recently switched over to Server-Side Sync within CRM and were told we no longer needed the Outlook Client and that it is no longer supported. 
 
Now my problem.  I've noticed on my NEW laptop that does not have the CRM Outlook Client installed, where Excel's /Refresh from Dynamics 365/ button is no longer available.  Without this button, how do I update the Excel data from CRM.  This is required for some PowerBI reports we utilizing the excel spreadsheets.  We are running CRM Dynamics 365 version 8.2 on-premise. 
 
Any suggestions?  I'm sure I'm just missing something.
