Connect to Dynamics 365 web api

FrodeMagnussen — Wed, 26 Feb 2020 13:32:00 GMT

Hi,

I'm currently working on a Dynamics migration project and we want to setup a connection between Blueprism and the Dynamics 365 web api. I am a .NET developer and no expert in Blueprism. Is there any documentation on how to authenticate against 365 and connect to the web api? I can't find any documentation to setup this.

Any tips is appreciated.

Hi Frode,

I recommend downloading and reading the 'Web APIs User Guide' document available from the Documents section of our Blue Prism Portal.

https://portal.blueprism.com/

Once there search a key work like API and you should find this and other helpful guides. This particular guide helps you learn how to set up APIs in Blue Prism. Once you setup the API, you will be able to setup actions (including parameters and how to deal with server responses). The API should probably support an 'Authenticate' call and you should be able to set it up as an action, in Blue Prism's API configuration, passing the parameters the API call requires to allow you to authenticate to the end Dynamics system.

Let me know if that helps!

Hi,

Thanks for the tip Jorge. The WEB APIs documentation is found here https://bpdocs.blueprism.com/bp-6-7/en-us/Web%20API/HTML/web-api.htm for those who need the same info.
