Create Application Users for Dynamics 365 environment | Power Platform Admin Center

Here’s how you now set up Application Users in Dynamics 365 CRM from the Power Platform Admin Center instead from the Classic UI and let’s see how the process is eased.

Classic UI

Previously, you used to see Application Users view in the Dynamics 365 CRM under Settings > Security > Users.

But it’s not longer available. Instead, you now go to the Power Platform Admin Center.

Register App in Power Platform Admin Center [PPAC]

Now, once you are in the Power Platform Admin Center, you can go to the Environment section –

First, let’s say this is your App in your Azure’s Active Directory in the App Registrations. And now you want to create an Application User in Dynamics CRM for this App.
Now, you can go to the PPAC (https://admin.powerplatform.microsoft.com/) and in Environments, look for your D365 CRM/Dataverse environment.
In Settings, you’ll see Users, expand the same and you’ll see Application Users which is now it’s own separate option.
Now, you’ll see the Registered Apps I have already and you can add from the “+ New App User” button above.
Now, select the + Add an app button
And you’ll see the complete list of all the Apps that are in your Azure’s Active Directory. Select the one your just created and click Add.
And then finally click Create once you Add the App you want to create Application User for.
And now, you’ll see the App added as an Application User for your environment.
Now, you also need to provide Security Roles based on the requirement. Select the App User, and click on Edit security roles once available.
In my case, I’m giving 3 Roles which I need to give and click Save.
Now, I’ll also see how many Roles have been given to the App User.
