I have one small doubt regarding Microsoft.Xrm.SDK.dll. Recently I received an email from Microsoft saying they are turning off support for any Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.dll version less than 8.2.
I am using Dynamics CRM 2016 (App version: 8.1.1.1183, DB Version: 8.1.1.1183), and SDK client to connect to this CRM. This SDK client uses Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.dll v6.1.
I want to know will it continue to work or do I have to make change in the code and upgrade the dll?
Thanks
This is probably related to ACS deprecation (which is only applicable for online orgs):
With the deprecation of Azure Access Control Service (ACS), you should modify the SDK authentication code by removing all references to ACS. Effective from Microsoft Dynamics CRM Online 2016 Update 1 (v8.1.1) and Microsoft Dynamics 365 (v8.2), we removed Live ID support and ACS dependencies on the server-side. It is required to update the references in all client side components by updating the SDK.
For custom applications you need to make sure you have the correct version of the SDK.
Custom Application(s) – If you have developed a Web/Windows/Console application that is interacting with Dynamics CRM
- Scan the folders on your server where the solution is running and look for: Microsoft.XRM.SDK.dll. If found, use the table given in the Team Blog site to determine which version of the SDK you need to download.
- Using the table, determine which version of .NET that you have deployed against, and confirm the version of Dynamics 365 CRM service you are using. If you are uncertain which .NET version your solution is using, contact your development or engineering teams.
- Once you have determined the correct SDK version to use simply replace the Microsoft.XRM.SDK.dll found in /bin folder with the latest version of the SDK dll.Replace Microsoft.XRM.SDK.dll with latest version of SDK dll
