# Microsoft Dataverse

## Sync overview

This source can sync data for the [Microsoft Dataverse API](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-apps/developer/data-platform/webapi/overview) to work with [Microsoft Dataverse](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-apps/developer/data-platform/overview).

This connector currently uses version v9.2 of the API

### Output schema

This source will automatically discover the schema of the Entities of your Dataverse instance using the API
`https://<url>/api/data/v9.2/EntityDefinitions?$expand=Attributes`

## Getting started

### Requirements

- Application \(client\) ID
- Directory \(tenant\) ID
- Client secrets

### Setup guide

The Microsoft Dataverse API uses OAuth2 for authentication. We need a 'client_credentials' type, that we usually get by using an App Registration.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-apps/developer/data-platform/authenticate-oauth

The procedure to generate the credentials and setup the necessary permissions is well described in this post from Magnetism blog:
