How to enable Hybrid Experience in Dynamics 365 V9.0 on premise? Currently, I don't have any option to enable the hybrid experience from System->Administration->System Settings.
As shown above there is no option on "Enable Embedding of certain legacy dialogs in Unified Interface browser client".
If it's not possible, is there any way to make the result from "Advanced Find" open in UCI Form?
We have latest on-prem (9.0.16.7) and also couldn't find this setting. Most probably it will be released in 9.1 for on-prem. I wouldn't expect it earlier then autumn.

Can we deploy outlook web-addins for O365 accounts using centralized deployment as described here ?
Three/Four months before, if I tried to install outlook add-in using this method, installation itself would fail. Now, I don't get any errors while installing, but the add-in does not appear in Outlook clients (Outlook 2016 in Windows and OWA in browsers).
Are centralized deployments supported for Outlook add-ins now? Also, are there any client side requirements? I found some related information here. But I am doubtful if it is up-to date.
Thanks for the query bala. Centralized deployment for Outlook add-ins is not supported as of now and will come very soon. There are no specific client requirements other than minimum requirements for add-ins.
I need to create an administrative portal that is visually consistent with Office 365 and Exchange online / 2016
What UX experience is most similar to the admin portal in these situations?
I discovered Office Fabric but not sure what else is needed to get an Exchange administrator page.
Office UI Fabric team member here. I'm not sure if Fabric is currently used in the Exchange Admin Portal (I don't think so today), but as Slava points out, Fabric is the framework we use to build many of the apps & experiences throughout Office 365, with many pages and experiences being onboarded all the time. It's your best bet if you want to build a new UX that looks and feels like Office, specifically the Fabric-React components, since we stress-test these in our own products and hold them to a very high standard in terms of performance, accessibility, and feature set.
Yes, your research is correct. Office UI Fabric is the front-end framework for building experiences that fit seamlessly into Office and Office 365. Mainly the product made to be replicate Office applications (Word, Outlook, etc.) in 3rd party apps and add-ins. It should be suitable for administrative portal as well, but probably not that reach.
Office UI fabric has two mayor parts: One is Office UI Fabric Core which includes set of style sheets and the second Office UI Fabric JS which delivers built-in components you may use out of box with the core styles.
My company uses MS dynamics CRM 4.0 and I can only access the client side of it (using the URL in IE to open the CRM system).
I can see that the system could do with some enhancements and plug-ins.I want to work on them because when I suggested these enhancements I was told that the system will be upgraded, after maybe 2 years. So no one is working on making it better even though the extension could really help the users.
Details: Currently, users enter details for each sale into the system. This takes a lot of time because the server and centralised database is in another continent. What I want to do is to have the users enter their data into an excel sheet and a system scheduler will upload the data overnight.
My question is can I develop, plug-ins or extensions etc, on the CRM with VS Express Edition? I have no access to the CRM Server or database since I'm using only the browser to use the system to enter data, just the client side CRM window.
Edit This is not lack of research. I have not found an answer to this anywhere.
I appreciate your expertise and experience.
If you are talking about .NET, server-side plugins, you'll need the following things as described on the "Creating a Simple Plug-in" page of the 4.0 SDK:
To complete this walkthrough, you will need the following:
Visual Studio 2005 or Visual Studio 2008.
A pre-built version of the Plug-in Registration tool.
A Microsoft Dynamics CRM SDK installation.
Network access to a Microsoft Dynamics CRM 4.0 server.
A Microsoft Dynamics CRM system account with either the System
Administrator or System Customizer security role, which is also a
member of the Deployment Administrators group in Deployment Manager.
The line about network access to the server I'm not so sure about. If you register the plugin to the database as you typically would, I don't think you'd need network access; if you deploy to disk, that's when I think you need it.
If by "extensions" you mean things like adding scripts to forms, the only thing you'd need is the System Customizer or System Administrator roles.
Update based on your addition to question:
If you want to schedule a daily import, you should be able to do that with the limited, web-only access you have (assuming you have enough privileges to kick off imports [which, if you can do it through the UI, you can do it programmatically]). Your program could run and kick off import jobs (see "Configuring Data Import" page of SDK). I know for sure you could kick off imports of csv's, not sure about programmatically importing excel files, but you could programmatically transform the excel files to csv and then kick off the jobs.
I need to add custom tab in ribbon. Actually its already implemented in Windows MS powerpoint using vb. But how can i implement custom ribbon in MAC Edition Power point ?
You can't. Mac PPT doesn't allow ribbon customization.
You'll need to provide user interface using the old-style commandbars.
I am evaluating UFT (formerly QTP) as an automation tool for testing a Microsoft Management Console app. The controls have the prefix MMC, e.g. MMCMainWindow.
I have contacted HP and so far they have not come up with a solution. The solutions architect I am working with suggested using the extensibility toolkit, but I'm not sure that was meant for creating custom controls for an entire application.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
