    The IExecutionContext Interface has properties like OrganizationName & OrganizationId.

    Use your PluginExecutionContext to access these properties. - I recommend comparing the IDs instead of the Name.

    hi Flydancer, why do you recommend i use the ID instead of the name?

    Hi Victor,

    As mentioned below, you can use:

    msdn.microsoft.com/.../microsoft.xrm.sdk.iexecutioncontext.organizationname.aspx or msdn.microsoft.com/.../microsoft.xrm.sdk.iexecutioncontext.organizationid.aspx (if you know the organization id)

    You can also set the Secure or Unsecure configuration of the plugin step to pass different parameters to your plugin based on environment.

    Hope this helps.

    Hi Victor, using the ID won't break your plugins in case someone renames the Organzation (which is only possible for on-premise afaik).

    If you know this won't happen using the Name should be fine, too.
