“Object of type can not be converted to type ‘IBusinessEntity’ ” exception with crm Early Binding

Hi,

You may come across below exception in Plug-Ins, while performing Create/Update operation using CRM early binding

Exception: Unhandled Exception: System.InvalidOperationException: Object of type ‘entity_name‘ can not be converted to type ‘IBusinessEntity’

Fix :-

You need to add below line in your Plug-in project’s “AssemblyInfo.cs” file (Navigate to project folder and go to ..\Properties\AssemblyInfo.cs)

[assembly: Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.Client.ProxyTypesAssemblyAttribute()]

AssemblyInfo.cs

Hope it helps 🙂
