I am trying to write python scripts to get info from our CRM. I get lots of 401 responses when I try to pass my credentials.

How do I create tokens (with the client ID and secret) using Python and what would a Python script look like that creates a token and sends a GET request to get our CRM incidents?

Thank you!

Hello,

In order to authenticate with Dynamics, you first need to register an application in Azure, to obtain your authentication token from.

This article explains how to achieve that:

After obtaining the Client Id from the Azure App, you can build a request that gets the authentication token from Azure and starts performing your requests.

The following article goes over how to do this via Python:
