Standard SQL Syntax

The connector fully supports the ANSI SQL standard and lets you execute SQL statements against your Dynamics 365 data just like you would normally work with relational databases. Simple queries are directly converted to Dynamics 365 API calls and executed on the Dynamics 365 side.

Complex queries are transformed into simpler queries, which are then converted to Dynamics 365 API calls. The embedded SQL engine then processes the results in the local cache and applies advanced SQL features from the original complex query.

High Performance

The connector supports connection pooling and local caching of data to increase the access speed. It also lets you submit multiple update statements to Dynamics 365 for processing as a batch to improve execution time.

Platform Support

The Python connector is available for Windows 32-bit and 64-bit, macOS 64-bit, and Linux 64-bit.

Unicode-Compliant Connector

The Unicode-compliant connector lets you retrieve and update multilingual data, regardless of its character encoding (Chinese, Cyrillic, Hebrew, and more) in any language environment.

Data Types Support

The connector supports all Dynamics 365 data types and Python data types. It offers additional options to control data type mapping between the Dynamics 365 data types and Python data types.
