Upload file to Virtual PC on Azure

Posted on by 20

Hello everyone,

Is there any way to upload files to a virtual machine in Azure in Dynamics 365 CRM? We use the online version.

The idea is for our employees to upload a file in a specific record and it is then uploaded to the local server.

Thanks a lot for the advice!

    Hey!

    Out of the box, is not possible.  Files added to attachments are automatically added to the Dynamics 365 CRM Storage.  I've seen some plugins on appsource.microsoft.com that store in different components (oneDrive, SharePoint, AzureBlobStorage).  Other possible workarounds would be:

    - Build your own plugin that upon detection of file, moves it to the specific VM.

    - Use Azure Logic Apps / powerAutomate to retrieve the file, move it to the desired location and then update the record on Dynamics with the file pointer.

    Regards
