Description

The Import-CrmPackage cmdlet imports a package to a Dataverse environment or Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement (on-premises) organization. A package can contain solution files, files, or exported data files from the Configuration Migration tool, custom code that can run during or after the package is deployed to the Dataverse environment or Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement (on-premises) organization, and HTML content specific to the package that can display at the beginning and end of the package deployment process. The HTML content can be useful to provide a description of the solutions and files that are deployed in the package.

This cmdlet can be used with Dataverse and Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement (on-premises).

Examples

-------------------------- EXAMPLE 1 --------------------------

PS C:\>Import-CrmPackage -CrmConnection $CRMConn -PackageDirectory c:\UnifiedServiceDesk\USDPackageDeployer -PackageName microsoft.crm.unifiedservicedesk.packages.crmwebclientdemopackage.dll -UnpackFilesDirectory c:\UnpackedFiles -Verbose

This example imports the Unified Service Desk web client sample application package that is named microsoft.crm.unifiedservicedesk.packages.crmwebclientdemopackage.dll and available in the c:\UnifiedServiceDesk\USDPackageDeployer directory.

The -Verbose parameter at the end of the command is optional, and is used to display a detailed log of the activities performed during the package deployment process. For the -CrmConnection parameter, we pass the $CRMConn variable that stores the connection information. We used the Get-CrmConnection cmdlet earlier to store the connection information in the $CRMConn variable.
