CRM 2016 On Premises. WebServer on premises
background: we currently have a webserver that our customers use to submit data into a SQL Server. We then have to use a third party piece of software to import those records into CRM. What we are investigating, is creating a new Web Application that will talk directly to CRM. From several threads and the SDK I believe it is possible, however, before we dive in and waste a lot of time, I have a few questions;
1. I believe that the SDK shows how to make a connection from a web site to CRM. We have some 1500 users that would be using the Web Application, so the pheasability of this project all depends on the log on details. Is it possible to have the Web application automatically connect to CRM using trusted credentials, and then the Web Application use details from the Contacts entity to verify customer login details.
The security of the system is of paramount importance, and we would need to ensure that only registered users can access the CRM data via the Web Application. I apricate that not all of this is aimed directly at CRM, but as the connection and log on details would need to be against the CRM, I thought this would be a good place to start. If anyone has done something like this or similar, I would appreciate any feed back, suggestions or questions
