Dynamics 365 Education and Knowledge

The online version of Dynamics 365 is being hosted in datacenters that exist in many regions. Based on the country/region you selected during the sign-up, the datacenter will be chosen to store data for your environments. This selection will be reflected into the URL of your Dynamics 365 environment where you can guess the region from it. In this post, we will see the latest list of datacenter regions for Dynamics 365 Online with the URL for each region.

Since the first versions of the Dynamics 365 product, the business units, users, and security roles are directly linked together and form the base of the security model in the system, where every user must belong to one business unit and must have one or more security roles assigned to him. As you know, security roles are specific to each business unit, where a version of the security role of the root business unit will be replicated and inherited for every business unit in the hierarchy. In addition, changing a user business unit will remove all the security roles assigned to the user from the previous business unit, and you need to reassign them manually for the new business unit. Starting 2021 Release Wave 2 Updates, this behavior can be overridden and we can change the user business unit without removing the assigned security roles .

In Dynamics 365, you can create an unlicensed user in your environment, it is called Application user . This type of user will have access to the data of your environment on behalf of the user who is using your application. However, each Azure Active Directory registered application, you can only create one application user. Previously, we were able to create this type of users from the Users area under the Settings > Security menu. Currently, it is done through the Power Platform Admin center In this post, we will see how to Create an Application User for Dynamics 365 . Below are the instructions to create an application user Log on to the Power Platform Admin center as a System Administrator Go to Environments , select the needed environment and open the Settings page
