Output Binding Usage

If all you need is just to send some commands to Dyancmis 365 and not care about their retuns or futhre actions, Dyanmics 365 Output Binding can be used as below

[FunctionName("<your_function_name>")]
public static async Task<string> <your_function_name>(<your_function_trigger>,
[Dynamics365Output("%<your_dynamics_365_connection_string>%", ContinueOnError = false)] IAsyncCollector<OrganizationRequest> requests, 
ILogger log)
{
    log.LogInformation($"Function triggered");
    
    Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.Entity bpi= new Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.Entity("account");
    bpi["name"] = "Test User";
    CreateRequest req = new CreateRequest();
    req.Target = bpi;
        
    await requests.AddAsync(req);
    return "done!";
}

The sample above shows a CreateRequest, and you can do any requests derived from OrganizationRequest. As for connection string, please refer to https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/developer/data-platform/xrm-tooling/use-connection-strings-xrm-tooling-connect.

Input / output Binding Usage

If all you need more complicated stuff than just to send some commands to Dyancmis 365, Dyanmics 365 Input / Output Binding can be used as below

[FunctionName("<your_function_name>")]
public static string ProcessSubpoenaWorker(<your_function_trigger>,
[Dynamics365Client("%<your_dynamics_365_connection_string>%")] ServiceClient client,
ILogger log)
{
    log.LogInformation($"Function triggered");
    using(client) {
        // your actions with Dynamics 365
