Posted on by Community Member Microsoft Employee

I am still learning CRM development and l have been stuck on connecting a CRM package created in visual studio to crm onpremises, l always connect to online. l have tried to google but l can't seem to find an answer would any please help with a brief explanation of how to connect. Explaining the fields required like where do you get the server name, l assumed port you get it from url. (My apologies if this is a bit silly to ask but l just got username and password and loginurl and do not have access to the deployment manager or knowledge of the hosting and my knowledge in onpremises crm is very shallow still to learn more.refer to pic below

    This is based on configuration of the server. How is your url look like?

    1. Try to remove https:// in server

    2. Try to remove Domain (make it blank), and type username with your [domain]]\[username]

    3. If no 2 is not work, in Username just type [username] without domain and fill out your Domain with [domain].

    Sometimes this one is tricky. So just test it one by one.

    Remove https in front of your server name (server name is the url without https://) and don't include the port number in server name, untick the use Ssl, if your Org is configured for IFD then leave it or change it to Active Directory if not configured for IFD.
