Virtual Entities/Virtual Tables allow for display and interaction with data external to D365. A custom Virtual Entity Data Provider plugin interfaces between dynamics and an external data source. This all works well.

 

However, synchronous pre-create/update/delete plugins aren't allowed on virtual tables. Even though we were able to create them in some environments and they worked perfectly, they wouldn't import into other environments. Microsoft support says you can't do plugins on Virtual Tables, even though the documentation seems to indicate that you can.

 

Pre-plugins are critical to implementing customer-specific business logic and custom security on virtual entities. Code that needs to run before reaching out to the Virtual Entity Data Provider, i.e. logic that should not be baked into a generic Virtual Entity Data Provider plugin.

 

Please enable this feature, as it seems to already work flawlessly in some environments, but not in others.

 

Thanks.
