Is there a way to use Azure API Management to create custom APIs for CRUD functions on a Dataverse Database? I am interested in creating access to my Dataverse database and capitalize on the features of Azure API Management.
Hi @IFEJohn
Azure API Management is a service that allows you to publish, manage and consume APIs in a secure and scalable way. You can use Azure API Management to create custom APIs for CRUD functions in a Dataverse database, following these general steps:
Deploy and register CRUD plug-ins for Dataverse.Create a data provider and add the plug-ins to the provider.Create a virtual table in the Dataverse environment.Use the Dataverse Web API to create, update, view, and delete records using the virtual table.For more details, you can consult the following resources:
Web API basic operations sample (Microsoft Dataverse) - Power Apps | Microsoft Learn
Sample: Custom virtual table provider with CRUD operations (Microsoft Dataverse) - Power Apps | Microsoft Learn

Thank you very much @Jmanriquerios. Your response is very helpful. I too found another approach that I think is good. I created an Azure Logical App using a workflow, very similar to Power Automate, to connect to the Dataverse data source and then connect the Logical App to the Azure API Management. It is very simple and works well.
