No, coding is not always required to use Microsoft Dynamics 365. The platform is designed to support both technical users and non-developers, offering a wide range of low-code and no-code customization options through its Power Platform integration, including Power Apps, Power Automate, and Power BI.
Business users, functional consultants, and administrators can perform tasks like:
Configuring workflows
Customizing forms and dashboards
Managing business rules
Automating processes with Power Automate
These tasks use drag-and-drop tools and visual designers, requiring no programming knowledge.
Developers or technical consultants may need to use code for:
Creating custom plugins or workflows using C#
Integrating third-party applications via APIs
Extending UI elements with JavaScript
Developing custom connectors and Azure-based services
For everyday use, coding is optional.
For advanced customization or integration, coding is helpful but not mandatory for most users.
