Can I Authorize a Connection Using a Microsoft Entra App Registration?

Question

Can I set up a Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central connection using a Microsoft Entra app registration or service principal instead of a Business Central user?

Environment

Connector: Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central

Answer

No, you can't set up a Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central connection using a Microsoft Entra app registration or service principal. You must use a Business Central account with Administrator privileges. For more information, see our Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central Setup Guide.

The Microsoft Dynamics 365 CRM connector does support this authentication method.
