Hello

Could anyone tell me how i get a developer sandbox to start building a dynamics integration?

Is there any step by step guide?

If i search for it i can find only how to get a ms 365 developer account but there is no ms dynamics access.

Thanks a lot.

None of the answers appears to be valid answers.

I believe that the only way, once a trial expires, is to get access (paying) via a MSFT partner.

Hello,

I would recommend to check if Power Apps Developer Plan is available for you - learn.microsoft.com/.../developer-plan

Note that Dynamics 365 is a suite of different business applications, such as Sales, Customer Engagement or Finance and Operations. It's impossible to give you an API documentation without knowing which product you're interested in.

Personally, I need a Sandbox account for business central. I signed up for the trial but it expired before we got to use it. I spent 30 minutes yesterday with the 365 support team and the only thing they would do was to connect me with an MS partner who will try to sell me a business central account.

It's a shame that MS doesn't support the developer community with all their products. Maybe they do, but it's impossible to work out how to get access to sandbox accounts for various products.

Hi Martin,

I am not sure what Power Apps does, but I created an account and it does not seem relevant.

We require a permanent sandbox account to Business Central, so that we can build and continually test our integration to this product so that our clients may connect their accounts on our platform with their licenced business central instances. We need to know that the Accounts, Supplier and Bill data that we synchronise to business central is being correctly transferred.

TalentDesk, please discuss it in the Business Central forum, rather than hijacking this old thread in Dynamics 365 General Forum.

Need to blame this forum's auto-suggest thread feature when typing a post title for that...
