Cause

This error can occur if the plug-in assembly is using a later version of the .NET Framework such as 4.6.1 and 4.6.2. Currently Microsoft Dynamics 365 (online) only supports .NET SDK assemblies built on .NET Framework 4.5.2.

Resolution

The affected assembly must be compiled with .NET Framework 4.5.2:

  1. Open Visual Studio.
  2. Right-click on the project that contains the affected assembly and select Properties.
  3. Change the Target framework to .NET Framework 4.5.2.
