Connect to D365 Finance & Operations

[tcash]

I have successfully connected to D365 CE using the Online Service connector dialogue, providing a Web API URL and an organizational account credential. However, when I do the same porcedure with F&O I get the following message when I try to authenticate with my organizational account (AAD credential) -->"We were unable to connect because this credential type isn't supported for this resource. Please choose another credential type."  

What am I missing? e.g. Do I need to request my infrastructure team to config F&O Odata to allow authentication via organizational account?

It turns out the OData URL link for F&O needed the suffix of /data instead of the suffix of /api/data/v8.2 that was required for my CRM instance.

Did I answer your question? Mark my post as a solution!

Thanks for the reply.  My question was different. The thread you referred to describes the fact that entities must be makred as public to be viewed via OData. I did find a solution which I will post separately.
