Limitations with creating entities

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hi There 

Does anyone know the rules with regards to how many custom entities you are allowed to create with marketing as a stand alone application?

Would we be able to create a custom entity which can not only be exposed in Dynamics marketing but also allow us to create new records for said custom entity?

Thanks

    Hi Chez,

    The maximum allowed custom entities depends on our subscription license, so it is organization level, while the application could be just regarded as user interface to show data.

    We can go to Advanced Settings > Administration > Resources In Use to check the number of allowed custom entities.

    The limit can be extended by contacting Dynamics 365 technical support.

    Therefore, a custom entity can be exposed in any application: for example, we can still view segment records in Sales Hub by replacing URL parameter with logical name of segment entity even though the entity is not enabled in Sales Hub by default.

    In other word, to expose an entity in a specific app, we just need to open that app in App Designer, then enable the custom entity and add it to Site Map.

    Regards,
