Dynamics 365 Business Central
Connect to your users' Dynamics accounts
You can find your Dynamics 365 Business Central app credentials in your Dynamics 365 Business Central Developer Account.
You'll need the following information to set up your Dynamics 365 Business Central App with Paragon Connect:
- Consumer Key
- Consumer Secret
- Scopes Requested
Paragon provides a redirect URL to send information to your app. To add the redirect URL to your Dynamics 365 Business Central app:
1. Copy the link under "Redirect URL" in your integration settings in Paragon. The Redirect URL is:
https://passport.useparagon.com/oauth
3. Navigate to All Services > App Registrations and select your application.
4. Select Authentication from the sidebar.
5. Under Platform configurations, press the "Add a platform" button.
6. Select the Web platform.
7. Paste the Redirect URL from Step 1 under Redirect URIs.
8. Press the Save button at the top of the page.
Since Dynamics 365 Business Central does not automatically provide you with a Client Secret for your application, we'll need to make one. To get your Client Secret:
1. Navigate to Manage > Certificates & secrets in the sidebar.
2. Under Client Secrets, press the + New client secret button.
3. Name your client credentials and select an expiry that works best for your application. Press Add to create your credentials.
4. Copy the displayed Client Secret under the Value column.
1. Select Dynamics 365 Business Central from the Integrations Catalog.
2. Under Integrations > Connected Integrations > {YOUR_APP} > Settings, fill out your credentials from the end of Step 1 in their respective sections:
- Client ID: Found under Essentials > Application (client) ID on your Microsoft Azure Portal app page.
- Client Secret:
- 1.
- 2.Navigate to Manage > Certificates & secrets in the sidebar.
- 3.Under Client Secrets, press the + New client secret button.
- 4.Name your client credentials and select an expiry that works best for your application.
- 5.Press Add to create your credentials.
- 6.Copy the displayed Client Secret under the Value column.
- Permissions: Select the scopes you've requested for your application.
Press the blue "Connect" button to save your credentials.
Leaving the Client ID and Client Secret blank will use Paragon development keys.
