Offline Authentication Admin Email D365FO

Offline Authentication Admin Email D365FOMost of time my team members complain  me that they are getting two type of errors randomly.

1. Authentication error while browse the table from Visual Studio.
2. Exception occurred on the metadata service on client or server – error: forbidden. While setting report data source as query the above error occurred

We can resolve above both types of error in just few steps.

Step-1 Check for the “OfflineAuthenticationAdminEmail”  key in file “DynamicsDevConfig” in AOSService -> PackagesLocalDirectory->Bin to be set to  the correct login email that you are using.

Step-2 In my case administrator@contosoax7.onmicrosoft.com was mentioned. So i replace with the email i was using.

Step-3 Sign In to Visual Studio with your account.

Step-4 Close Visual studio.

Step-5 Restart IIS.

Step-6 Restart Batch 

Step-7 Open Visual Studio as Administrator

Step-8 Verify your issue again. in my case both issues resolved.
