Web API Helper Code Compilation Error

September 18, 2018 Leave a comment

I was creating a console application to connect to Dynamics 365 Web API, and downloaded “Microsoft.CrmSdk.WebApi.Samples.HelperCode” NuGet package.

Compilation Error_1

I got “AcquireToken method is no longer available” compilation error, when I build the project

Compilation Error

Reason & Fix:

  • We have to use UserPasswordCredential class in ADAL v3.
  • Below is the code snippet

var credentials = new UserPasswordCredential(userName, password);
var context = new AuthenticationContext(authorityUri);
authResult = context.AcquireTokenAsync(serviceUrl, applicationId, credentials).Result;

Refer my previous article for step by step to connect to Dynamics 365 Web API.
