Key takeaways
Worth quoting
“MCP is an open standard that lets AI applications discover and call tools and data sources in a structured way. Think of it like a universal remote.” – Mirko Peters (00:49)
“Customizations and ISV extensions become automatically visible to the agent. You don't need to write special code to expose your custom fields or custom processes.” – Mirko Peters (03:27)

Key takeaways
- The Dynamics 365 ERP MCP server exposes finance and operations functions to AI agents through one governed interface, and the dynamic version lets agents work through forms, including customizations and ISV extensions.
- The analytics MCP server on Business Performance Analytics needs only two tools, get dataset schema and execute DAX query, and combining it with the action server turns insights into ERP actions.
- Agents inherit the connected user's Dynamics 365 security, but the preview has limits such as a 120-second timeout, so start with low-risk tasks and keep a human in the loop for high-risk actions.
