    you buy as other customers, there isn't a license specific for developers. You can use trials if you need a development environment.

    Hey Greg.

    As Guido stated, you can go to admin.microsoft.com and purchase a regular license, for the product you need: Customer Service (either Enterprise or Professional), Sales (Enterprise or Professional), etc.  YOu can purchase more than one license as well (Customer service as a base and Sales as an attachment, for example).

    Another option is to take the developer approach on PowerApps:  powerapps.microsoft.com/.../.  Because PowerApps rely on the Dataverse (as Dynamics), you can get some of the basic tables (Account, contact, Activities, etc).

    Regards,

    Hi,

    does anyone know how ISV can purchase Dynamics licenses for internal use (for development and testing)? We know buy it from a reseller at list price while we can offer it to our customers way cheaper via CSP. Is there a way the ISV can buy its own licenses also with a discount and if so, where?

    Thanks for your input!

    You don’t buy it as a “developer license.”

    • Purchase via Microsoft directly (Microsoft 365 admin center) or through a Cloud Solution Provider (CSP partner).
    • For development, use Dynamics 365 Developer Plan (free sandbox, no production use).
    • For full capabilities, buy standard licenses (e.g., Sales/Customer Service) and assign to your tenant.

    There isn’t a special developer license for Dynamics 365. If you need a permanent environment, you’ll have to buy the same licenses as any customer through the Microsoft 365 admin center. For testing or building, you can use free trial instances or the Power Apps Developer Plan, which gives you Dataverse access at no cost. That’s usually the easiest way to set up a dev sandbox without paying for a full Dynamics 365 subscription.
