Hi All ,
I am exploring the Dynamics 365 and i got to know about configuration settings of Dynamics CRM solution , previously i was only using it to display some HTML information but i was not utilizing it as it should be.
So i googled how to create a product registration configuration file, but i couldn't find a working solution there is a good explanation of Mahendra Pal blog but unfortunately it didn't work.
So here is the requirement
create a product registration form (not fancy just pass one id and validate )
In addition :
please explain how it actually works (under the hood which ever solution you are proposing ) for knowledge (copying code isn't the best idea to learn things ) and what else can be done using configuration file.
Thanks.

I have the same question (0)The configuration page of a solution is simply a way to display an HTML webresource in the solution window. Creating a production registration framework is a complex and very involved topic.
1. You will need to create an entity to story your production registration information
2. You'll need to create a custom action or plugin to send a request to an external server in order to validate a key
3. You'll need to work out a way of storing information that cannot be tampered or spoofed once validated
4. Create a plugin to check the regisration data whenever your custom feature is uesd
5. Create an html webresource and javascript to submit a form to the custom action when the user clicks register.
The techniques required to built the above will need an excellent knowledge of the SDK- www.microsoft.com/.../details.aspx
Hope this helps
