Can I run the CRM sdk to my Dynamics CRM test account?

Question

I created a test account for microsoft Dynamics, which resulted in a xyz.crm4.dynamics.com address.

Now I have troubles running the SDK examples, which give me a authentication issue.

So I wondered: is it even possible to run the SDK examples to a testaccount?

===================

What I did: I start the example, and on the command prompt I was asked for the crm server (i entered xyz.crm4.dynamics.com)

and i was asked if it runs in office 365 (i entered no).

Then I got an error there is nog dev.xyz.crm4.dynamics.com service (I removed the dev. part from the example code, is that ok?)

then I had to enter my windows live id account, which i did, and the I got an error on this line: discoveryProxy.Execute(new RetrieveOrganizationsRequest());

For an Microsoft Dynamics CRM Online Instance the Webservice endpoints are located at https://<your-subdomain-orgname>.api.crm4.dynamics.com ... where crm4 also may vary with the regional datacenter your instance is hosted. (crm4 is the Europe datacenter)

Apart from that you shouldn't see any issues connecting to trial organization and running the SDK samples against it.

The username for connecting is - as you already guessed - michel@xyz.onmicrosft.com and the address you connect to is https://xyz.api.crm4.dynamics.com
