How to Set Up and Use Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations
The D365FO MCP Server connects AI coding assistants to Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations metadata, exposing over 47 tools for searching 580,000+ indexed X++ symbols including classes, tables, forms, EDTs, and labels. It provides IntelliSense-like code navigation, intelligent form pattern recommendations, safe metadata writes via a C# bridge using Microsoft's IMetadataProvider, and SDLC tools such as MSBuild compilation and test runners. Developers and D365FO consultants use it to dramatically accelerate X++ development inside GitHub Copilot, Claude, or any MCP-compatible client.
Prerequisites
- Node.js 24.0.0 or higher
- TypeScript 6.0 or higher
- .NET SDK installed (required to build the C# metadata bridge)
- Access to D365FO package files on disk, or an Azure deployment with the metadata indexed
- An MCP-compatible client such as GitHub Copilot, Claude Desktop, or Claude Code
Clone the repository
Clone the d365fo-mcp-server repository to a local drive. The documentation uses K:\ as the example path for a Windows developer machine.
git clone https://github.com/dynamics365ninja/d365fo-mcp-server.git K:\d365fo-mcp-server
cd K:\d365fo-mcp-serverInstall Node.js dependencies and build
Install npm packages, then build both the TypeScript layer and the C# metadata bridge.
npm install
cd bridge\D365MetadataBridge && dotnet build -c Release && cd ..\..
npm run buildExtract metadata and build the search database
Point the extraction script at your D365FO package files by setting PACKAGES_PATH. For hybrid (cloud search + local writes) mode, skip the extract-metadata step and go straight to build-database.
set PACKAGES_PATH=K:\AosService\PackagesLocalDirectory
npm run extract-metadata
npm run build-databaseConfigure environment variables
Set the required environment variables so the server can locate your D365FO workspace and custom models. CUSTOM_MODELS is optional and points to additional model directories to index.
set PACKAGES_PATH=K:\AosService\PackagesLocalDirectory
set D365FO_SOLUTIONS_PATH=K:\MyProjects
set D365FO_WORKSPACE_PATH=K:\AosService\PackagesLocalDirectoryRegister the server with your MCP client
Add the server to your MCP client configuration. For Claude Code use 'claude mcp add-json'. For GitHub Copilot, create %USERPROFILE%\.mcp.json with the entry below.
Verify the connection
Ask your MCP client a metadata question. A successful response confirms the server is indexed and connected.

Client configuration
Add this block to %USERPROFILE%\.mcp.json for GitHub Copilot, or adapt for claude_desktop_config.json. Adjust the command path and env vars for your environment.
{
"mcpServers": {
"d365fo": {
"command": "node",
"args": ["K:\\d365fo-mcp-server\\dist\\index.js"],

}
}
}
}Prompts to try
Once the server is connected, use these prompts in your AI client to navigate and generate D365FO code.
- "What tables in D365FO contain a CustAccount field?"
- "Show me the X++ class hierarchy for SalesTable."
- "Generate a new table called MyCustomTable with CustAccount and TransDate fields."
- "What form patterns are recommended for a list-details form in D365FO?"
- "Validate my X++ code for compile errors before writing it to disk."Troubleshooting Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations
npm run extract-metadata fails with 'PACKAGES_PATH not found'
Ensure the PACKAGES_PATH environment variable points to the actual D365FO PackagesLocalDirectory. On a one-box environment this is typically C:\AosService\PackagesLocalDirectory. Set the variable before running the npm script.
dotnet build fails for the C# bridge
Install the .NET SDK (6.0 or later) and ensure 'dotnet' is in your PATH. Run 'dotnet --version' to verify. The bridge project is in bridge\D365MetadataBridge and requires the SDK, not just the runtime.
MCP client reports 0 tools available
Confirm npm run build-database completed without errors. The SQLite database must be built before the server can serve tool definitions. Re-run extract-metadata then build-database if the database file is missing or empty.
