Preview feature: Set up Cortana integration

We’re introducing Cortana integration to help salespeople keep track of important CRM activities. CRM Online 2016 Update embeds sales activities, accounts, and opportunities into Cortana to surface what’s most relevant to salespeople at any time.

Cortana integration is available as a Preview feature to organizations that use CRM Online 2016 Update. We expect changes to this feature, so you shouldn’t use it in production. Use it only in test and development environments.

A preview feature is a feature that is not complete, but is made available before it’s officially in a release so customers can get early access and provide feedback. Preview features aren’t meant for production use and may have limited or restricted functionality.


Important

Microsoft doesn’t provide support for this preview feature. Microsoft Dynamics CRM Technical Support won’t be able to help you with issues or questions. Preview features aren’t meant for production use and are subject to a separate supplemental terms of use.


Eventually, Cortana integration will be fully included in the product.

Enable Cortana integration with CRM on your device

Once you’ve set up Cortana integration, Cortana will prompt your users to connect with CRM. All they need to do is follow the prompts to connect.

Dynamics CRM then appears in Cortana’s notebook, and Cortana prompts users with relevant information about your sales activities, accounts, opportunities, and meetings.
