A xrmtoolbox plugin for Dynamic36 webapi to convert the json to CSharp models. You can also use this tool to convert any json to c# models.
This tool requires only OAuth or Certificate types connection to get crm entities as it connects to WebAPI.
For how to connect and working examples please see below.
Once you have the xrmtoolbox you need to install this plugin form Tool Library as shown below.
Once the installion is done, you will see this plugin as follows:
Since this plugin connects to CE webapi so by default it requires OAuth or Certifcate type connections in xrmtoolbox.
For example regarding available OAuth connections in xrmtools are mentioned below:
Some examples are as follows.
AuthType=OAuth;Username=jsmith@contoso.onmicrosoft.com; Password=passcode;
Url=https://contoso:8080/Test;AppId=;RedirectUri=app://; LoginPrompt=Never
Once you are connected through OAuth connection, by default the plugin will load all the mostly used entities as list.
By default it will load the accounts entity and display only one random record, so the json is availble for conversion
or customization or properties changes.
Also you can entirely replace the crm json and paste your own
valid json for relevant csharp classes. Please see the screen shots below.

Just an reminder the null values in json crossponds to object in c# class, becuase the parser expect some valid cli types instead we have null in value and hence currently parser is not able to determine the valid type and it puts object type.
- Will add the possiblity to select entities and their attributes to build json. (select or search)
- Formatted json display in box.
