Описание: How to Debug a Plugin in Dynamics 365 CRM || Power Apps
In my last video, we saw how to register a plugin in Dynamics 365 CRM. Now, let’s take it a step further and learn how to debug it!
There are two efficient ways to debug a plugin:
1️⃣ Trace Logs (Quick & Easy) – Enable plugin trace logs, trigger the plugin, and analyze the logs to find issues.
2️⃣ Plugin Profiler (Step-by-Step Debugging) – Capture execution, attach to Visual Studio, and debug line by line.

1️⃣ Trace Logs (Quick & Easy)
• Enable Plugin Trace Logs in the Power Platform Admin Center.
• Perform the action that triggers the plugin.
• Go to Settings → Advanced Settings → Administration → System Settings → Customization → Search for Plugin Trace Logs.
• Add trace logs in your code, save, build, and update the plugin.
• Trigger the plugin by creating an account record.
• Open Plugin Trace Logs and check the logs.
• Filter logs by Type Name → Add Contains → Namespace.ClassName, set Executed in Last Hour, and save this view for quick access anytime.
• Check the traces for insights.

2️⃣ Using Plugin Profiler (Step-by-Step Debugging)
• Install the Profiler in the Plugin Registration Tool.
• Select the plugin, click Start Profiling, and choose Persist to Entity.
• Perform the action that triggers the plugin.
• Stop profiling after triggering the plugin.
• Click Debug, select the profile location and assembly location, and the plugin will be automatically selected.
• Open the log in Visual Studio, click Debug, attach PRT, and set a breakpoint.
• Start execution and step through the code to inspect values and errors.
Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced Dynamics 365 developer, these methods will help you debug plugins efficiently!
