Move Dynamics 365 CRM attachments to Azure Blob and retrieve from there on CRM and Portal

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hello Experts,

What are the alternatives to store attachments somewhere else rather than on CRM,

As we have only 10gb storage and the attachment files are too large,

we basically wants to store attachments somewhere else rather than CRM and want to retrieve those

attachments on CRM and Portal side.

Please help how it can be achieved.

Thanks in advance.

    Hi Ebad,

    You can use the new add-on Attach2Dynamics. It has all the features that you require and also, in future Attach2Dynamics will support moving of attachments to Azure Blob Storage.

    Thanks!

    Hi there,

    I know this post is a bit old, but leaving it here for anyone finding this in the future.

    You can use this open source plugin : https://github.com/DawidPotgieter/Dynamics-CRM-Binary-Storage-Options

    Includes a migration tool for existing attachments.

    Cheers.

    Hi Ebad,

    you may check this: www.work365apps.com/attachment-manager

    THis app will help you relocate all your Attachments of email or Notes to Azure Blob automaticaly (even you can configure for manually too)

    Azure storage is way cheaper than CRM storage.

    Hope this suffice your requirement.
