Hi,
Presently i am the system administrator of Dynamics 365 Sales CRM in a firm. Now i am interested more in CRM and would like to learn technical side of it. How can i learn the coding and customizations? And what qualification i need to be a partner of microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales CRM?
Thanks.
I have recently run one of our employees through the development side of things and this was the best link I found for someone to start with:
docs.microsoft.com/.../
On the left hand menu under the "Apply business logic using code" item under the Plug-ins->Plugins subheading the page contains links to some brief tutorials (docs.microsoft.com/.../plug-ins)
(also at the bottom of the first link, there is a Samples subheading)
Hi mdurkin3,

If you had found any answer helped, please kindly mark as verified to close the thread, it would be really appreciated.
Microsoft does provide a learning path for D365.. I think it will be a good place to start
You can start with fundamental and then move further along.
Hi Bibiya,
In addition of clofy suggested answer, you can create trial instance and parallelly you can develop plugin, JS, workflow, custom workflow, reports, ssrs reports, business rules, business process flows etc on it.
docs.microsoft.com/.../try-dynamics365-sales-professional
Also, go through with Microsoft doc for latest features and techniques required for development
docs.microsoft.com/.../overview
I would recommend your learning path of coding and customizations could be based on following topics:
