The XrmToolBox is a Windows application that connects to the Dataverse and Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement CE. It empowers everyone working with the Power Platform and there are 100+ tools which can be used. It was originally created by Tanguy Touzard but today everyone can contribute both to the Windows application as well as with building tools.

How to get started

You download XrmToolBox from here and install it on your computer. When you run it for the first time you will need to connect to a Power Platform environment (which has a database). Connection are saved so next time you open XrmToolBox you’ll have your connection in place and just need to connect to it.
