How to get database tables from Dyanamics 365 ?

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 5

Hi,

Are there two groups of tables in Dynamics 365 ?

When I connect my Dynamic CRM  through Dataedo , I see lot of tables, which have some columns as data type - lookup, picklist . So definitely these are not sql tables. 

How come these columns come in, ? Is it because some one, from the front end of Dynamics 365 generated it  ? If that is so, why are they not stored as String/Varchar format ?

Where is the actual database residing ?

I have the same question (0)

    Hi,

    You can setup azure synapses link in Dataverse to copy data to Azure data lake in the form of SQL table

    learn.microsoft.com/.../azure-synapse-link-pipelines

    You can also enable TDS endpoint to directly query with SQL

    learn.microsoft.com/.../dataverse-sql-query

    You can also use SQL4CDS plugin in xrmtoolbox
