Hi,

I need to use Java to get access token after administrator registered an APP on Azure Active Directory, I've got the application id and resource url. I still need an account when I use the JavaAPI to get the access token, for example:

Screen_2D00_Shot_2D00_2017_2D00_03_2D00_09_2D00_at_2D00_2.46.35_2D00_PM.png

I used third party library(http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.microsoft.azure/adal4j) above, I would like to know the type of this account and the information related to the permission role, It seems that no additional accounts are required in your C# example(https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/customer-engagement/developer/connect-customer-engagement-web-services-using-oauth#authenticate-using-adal), but the Java API is rrquired.

So, in fact, what I want to know is the type and permissions of this account when I use the JavaAPI to get Token.

Thanks,

Evan Pu

You can use any account which have required access on CRM to perform the business operations. It is completely depend on what are the actions you are going to perform using this access token. The account can be a service account or full access account.

Hi Rajesh,

Thanks for your reply, we want to synchronize some of the data we are interested in such as contacts, opportunities to our third-party applications, I don't know what you mean of the 'service account', because I haven't used the Dynamics 365 CRM Online, do you have any Suggestions?

Thanks,

Evan Pu

Hi Evan,

I have never used JavaAPI, however conceptually speaking, you need to pass the user name which has access to registered app in Azure Active Directory. User should have admin access on that app as well.

For registering your app in ADD, the user who is registering the application must have a Dynamics 365 (online) user account with System Administrator security role and the global administrator role for the Office 365 subscription.

Regards,

Pranav

Hi Evan,

To create a service user, First you should assign CRM license to a 365 user then login to CRM instance as Administrator and open the user profile and navigate to the administration tab the set client access license (CAL) Information. (Access Mode : Non-Interactive). Assign required security roles to the user.

After this configuration you can remove CRM license from the user. (Up to 5 service users are supported). Service user can make API communication with Dynamics CRM.
