The XrmToolBox is a Windows application that connects to Dataverse and Dynamics 365 (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). Connections are saved so next time you open XrmToolBox you’ll have your connection in place and just need to connect to it.

Good to know

You find documentation here.

There is a podcast dedicated to XrmToolBox and all other kinds of "tools" for the Power Platform and Dynamics 365. This is called XrmToolCast and is hosted by Jonas Rapp and Daryl LaBar. They invite the community and talk about tools related to XrmToolBox among other things. Go and listen!

YOU can create an XrmToolBox tool. Templates can be found here.
