Custom Action to Custom API Converter

This XrmToolBox tool allows you to convert the existing Custom Actions in the Dataverse unmanaged solutions to Custom APIs (developed by Mark Carrington).

Custom APIs are the latest and preferred way to add new messages into Dataverse, but the process of replacing existing Custom Actions can be time consuming and error-prone.

To automate the process of converting a Custom Action to a Custom API, you can use this tool to delete the Custom Action and then recreate it as a Custom API.
