Connecting Silverlight to Dynamics CRM

Published 03 September 08 02:33 AM | girishr 

As I promised in the channel9 video on CRM & Silverlight, I'm posting the sample code with a slight (3 weeks!) delay. Sorry folks.

For information on Microsoft Silverlight and its development, please view the Get Started page.

There are a variety of ways you can connect a Silverlight client to CRM. In the below example we're using a proxy approach by having a WCF service sitting in between Silverlight control and CRM web services.

1. Download the code

2. Download the public VPC and the below differencing disk containing the deployed solution.

Happy coding!

What do you need to use WCF?

Do have tobuy a WCF to use this method of connection? What version and licences of WCF do I need?

Thanks

Great Video
