Dynamics 365 ADO.NET Provider
Rapidly create and deploy powerful .NET applications that integrate with Dynamics 365.
Use the CData ADO.NET Provider for Dynamics 365 with the DevExpress Windows Forms and Web controls to provide Dynamics 365 data to a chart.
The CData ADO.NET Provider for Dynamics 365 implements standard ADO.NET data access components that can be used with third-party controls. The standard ADO.NET process for databinding can be followed to enable bidirectional access to live data from UI controls. In this article we show how to use the CData components to databind to the DevExpress Windows Forms and Web controls; you will databind to a chart that displays current data.
Edition and OrganizationUrl are required connection properties. The Dynamics 365 connector supports connecting to the following editions: CustomerService, FieldService, FinOpsOnline, FinOpsOnPremise, HumanResources, Marketing, ProjectOperations and Sales.
For Dynamics 365 Business Central, use the separate Dynamics 365 Business Central driver.
OrganizationUrl is the URL to your Dynamics 365 organization. For instance, https://orgcb42e1d0.crm.dynamics.com
Windows Forms Controls
The code below shows how to populate a DevExpress chart with Dynamics 365 data. The Dynamics365DataAdapter binds to the Series property of the chart control. The Diagram property of the control defines the x- and y-axes as the column names.
using (Dynamics365Connection connection = new Dynamics365Connection(
"OrganizationUrl=https://myaccount.operations.dynamics.com/;Edition=Sales;InitiateOAuth=GETANDREFRESH")) {
Dynamics365DataAdapter dataAdapter = new Dynamics365DataAdapter(
"SELECT GoalHeadingId, Name FROM GoalHeadings WHERE Name = 'MyAccount'", connection);
DataTable table = new DataTable();
dataAdapter.Fill(table);
DevExpress.XtraCharts.Series series = new DevExpress.XtraCharts.Series();
chartControl1.Series.Add(series);
series.DataSource = table;
series.ValueDataMembers.AddRange(new string[] { "Name" });
series.ArgumentScaleType = DevExpress.XtraCharts.ScaleType.Qualitative;
series.ArgumentDataMember = "GoalHeadingId";
series.ValueScaleType = DevExpress.XtraCharts.ScaleType.Numerical;
chartControl1.Legend.Visibility = DevExpress.Utils.DefaultBoolean.False;
((DevExpress.XtraCharts.SideBySideBarSeriesView)series.View).ColorEach = true;
}
Web Controls
The code below shows how to populate a DevExpress Web control with Dynamics 365 data. The Dynamics365DataAdapter binds to the Series property of the chart; the Diagram property defines the x- and y-axes as the column names.
using DevExpress.XtraCharts;
using (Dynamics365Connection connection = new Dynamics365Connection(
"OrganizationUrl=https://myaccount.operations.dynamics.com/;Edition=Sales;InitiateOAuth=GETANDREFRESH"))
{
Dynamics365DataAdapter Dynamics365DataAdapter1 = new Dynamics365DataAdapter("SELECT GoalHeadingId, Name FROM GoalHeadings WHERE Name = 'MyAccount'", connection);
DataTable table = new DataTable();
Dynamics365DataAdapter1.Fill(table);
DevExpress.XtraCharts.Series series = new Series("Series1", ViewType.Bar);
WebChartControl1.Series.Add(series);
series.DataSource = table;
series.ValueDataMembers.AddRange(new string[] { "Name" });
series.ArgumentScaleType = ScaleType.Qualitative;
series.ArgumentDataMember = "GoalHeadingId";
series.ValueScaleType = ScaleType.Numerical;
((DevExpress.XtraCharts.SideBySideBarSeriesView)series.View).ColorEach = true;
}
