...
You can use this Snap to update an existing record in
...
Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Sales.
...
Snap Type
Dynamics 365 for Sales Update Snap is a Write-type Snap that updates records from Microsoft Dynamics 365.
ETL Transformations
...
and Data Flow
This Snap enables the following ETL operations/flows:
Extract data from the upstream Snap containing the data for updating
...
Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Sales object(s).
Transform the input document into a SnapLogic friendly JSON Document.
Load the data into
...
Dynamics 365 for Sales Update Snap to update
...
Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Sales object(s)
...
Support for Ultra Pipelines
...
.
Prerequisites
You must have a Dynamics 365 OAuth2
...
Online account, data to query, and access to the objects concerned.
Support for Ultra Pipelines
Works in Ultra Pipelines. However, we recommend that you not use this Snap in an Ultra Pipeline. To know the list of Snaps that work in Ultra and the related caveats, refer to Snap Support for Ultra Pipelines.
Limitations
The following limitations are due to the API limitations from the Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Sales application:
The Snap fails with an error
...
when the number of requests exceeds 6000 within 300 seconds. We recommend that you limit the number of requests you make within 300 seconds (5 minutes). You can gradually increase the requests that reduce the retry-after duration, optimize your throughput, and minimize resource spikes on the server.
The Snap fails with an error
...
when the combined execution time of incoming requests exceeds the limit of 1,200,000 milliseconds within the window of 300 seconds. We recommend that you reduce the number of concurrent requests or reduce the duration of requests and try later.
The Snap fails with an error
...
when the number of concurrent requests
...
exceeds the limit of 52. We recommend that you reduce the number of concurrent requests.
When deleting more than one object in batches, the Batch Size range is from 1 to 1000. This is a limitation
...
of Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Sales.
MS Dynamics 365 for Sales limits the number of API calls to 60,000 per minute
...
per user org. This should be considered
...
when configuring the size of any batch process.
The Object Type suggestions are limited to the object types available within the MS Dynamics 365 For Sales v8.2 and v9.0. There is no current ability to suggest custom object types.
This Snap cannot create relationships using collection-valued navigation properties, such as contact_customer_accounts, due to current WebAPI limitations; however, it works correctly with single-valued navigation properties, such as primarycontactid.
Known Issues
None.
