Dataverse.ServiceClient fails to connect to Dynamics with "Failed to lookup current organization data"

Question

I have a problem with my .NET Core 3.1 application that connects to Dynamics. The error occurs when connecting to dynamics using the ServiceClient class, but it does not happen all the time and is not random. I am having trouble pinpointing the cause of the issue.

This is the error message I get when the application tries to connect:

I have seen posts regarding this error when using .NET Framework NuGets, the solution from them are either not applicable or have not worked. I am no expert when it comes to dynamics, my main focus are on integrations so I am at a loss here.

The error occurs when the applications FunctionStartup is running and the repository class, with the connection, is initiated. The connection is done with a scoped lifetime and the same connection is used for all operations towards Dyncamics (I have tried to use one connection per entity as well).

Observations I have made so far:

• The earlybound seems to have something to do with the issue, since if I move over to latebound and delete the earlybound files, the issue dissapears. But I have other solutions using the earlybound in combination with ServiceClient that is working fine
• The issue seems to be related with the dynamics instance that it connects to as well, as it does not happen for our DEV environment, but occurs in SIT
• Removing the type that is causing the issue causes the same error but for a different type
• It works locally, it is not until I deploy it to my function app that the crash occurs
• A simple restart of the function app will resolve the issue

My reflection is that the earlybound is conflicting with some other component as removing it removes the issue. It is the unknown component that I am looking for and part of me is looking towards dynamics, as it works in one environment and not the other and it is always the same environment it works for.

Any help or insight into this would be greatly appreciated. Please let me know if there are further questions on this.

Thank you!

Answer 1

---> A proxy type with the name msdyncrm_GetReactions has been defined by another assembly.

You are correct, that this is the relevant part of the error. That that you're not seeing it locally, and or you're not seeing it on the restart of a function indicates that you're dynamically loading a lib during runtime. ( are you? )

if so that lib has the same types as the root function has + the assembly attribute

[assembly: Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.Client.ProxyTypesAssemblyAttribute()]

That attribute causes the client to attempt to load the types of that assembly into the type mapper used by the client.

its only usefull if your using Linq operations based on the organization service context.

if your not using linq, the easiest way to fix this is to remove the assembly attribute above.
