We can open an existing lead or opportunity record, and the Sales Copilot automatically generates the summary for that record.

Or if we want to generate summary for a specific lead or opportunity we can use the below prompt.

Summarize lead or Summarize opportunity followed by @ and the record’s name.

Cleaning up the ActivityPointBase to free up storage– Dataverse / Dynamics 365


In one of our environments, the ActivityPointBase table was occupying nearly 20 GB. It was earlier 40 GB, and we then deleted email records to bring it down to 20 GB.

On downloading the table details, we did not get a clear idea of what activity-type table was occupying that much space.

So we raised the Microsoft Support ticket, and they shared with us the breakdown of records occupied by different activity type tables.

Then we configured our Bulk Deletion Job to delete the corresponding activity type records.

This helped us to bring down the ActivityPointerBase from 20 GB to 15 GB.

Fixed – The ‘CreateMultiple’ method does not support entities of type ‘none’. MessageProcessorCache returned MessageProcessor.Empty in Dataverse / Dynamics 365


Recently while trying to use the new CreateMutipleRequest message we got the below error –

“The ‘CreateMultiple’ method does not support entities of type ‘none’. MessageProcessorCache returned MessageProcessor.Empty”

It was because we were not populating the EntityName property of EntityCollection class. Specifying it fixed the issue.

You can refer to it here

In this blog post, we’d cover the installation and setup of the Kupp Code Analytics extension.

To get the extension, inside Visual Studio Marketplace, we can search for it and download the appropriate extension.

Below we can see that there are 2 versions of the extension available, one for Visual Studio 2022 and the other for Visual Studio 2019.

Visual Studio 2022 – https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=KuppSoftware.kca2022

Visual Studio 2019https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=KuppSoftware.KuppCodeAnalytics2019

We can also install it from inside Visual Studio, navigate to Extension, search for Kupp Code Analytics, and download the extension.

Click on Install / Modify (if already existing) to start/modify the installation.

Below we have successfully installed the extension for Visual Studio 2019.

Next, we need to specify and activate the License

We have 2 types of licenses available for the extension.

Community License (free)– Select type Single, enter the contact details and click on Activate to apply for the community license. Clicking on Activate activates the license instantly.

Enterprise License – This is paid license for the enterprise, that comes with additional features and capabilities not available in the Community license.

We can contact the sales team of Kupp for it – https://kuppsoft.com/contact/

Once added, we can see and manage the license information in Tools >> Options >> Kupp Code Analytics >> License

With Extension Installed, and the license activated, the next step is to configure the tool to connect to our Power Platform / Dynamics 365 Environment.

Navigate to Extensions >> Kupp Code Analytics >> Connection >> Configure

Select the appropriate connection or deployment type

Here to connect to Dynamics 365 Online, we keep the Deployment type as O365 and click on Load Organization

This opens the sign-in dialog where we can provide the appropriate account details.

After successful sign-in, we see all the environments populated to which the user has access. Select the environment, we want to connect to.

After selecting the environment, we can click on the Test D365 button and test the connection.

On a successful connection, we will get the success message as shown below.

Clicking on OK will close the connection dialog box, and the tool will start the process of downloading the metadata for the environment connected. The download should be complete in a matter of a few seconds.

This completes the installation and configuration part of the extension. In the next blog post, we’d cover the key features of the extension in detail.
