Overview

The account is required because MS Dynamics F&O requires an OAuth 2 authentication before making API calls. The account in SnapLogic for the MS Dynamics F&O snap pack will have fields populated for the following settings:

This account is used by the Snaps in the MS Dynamics F&O Snap Pack.

You can create an account with a Designer or Manager. In Designer, when working on pipelines, every Snap needing an account prompts you to create a new account or use an existing one. The accounts can be created in or used from:

• Your private project: This folder contains the pipelines that will use the account.

• Your Project Space’s shared folder: This folder is accessible to all the users that belong to Project Space.

• The global shared folder: This folder is accessible to all the users within an organization in the SnapLogic instance.
