1. Complete the Setup steps.
2. Add the Microsoft Dynamics Application Scope activity to your project.
3. Add an activity or run an external process that outputs a activity identifier (e.g., Insert Record, Search Records).
4. Add the Upload Activity Attachment activity inside the Microsoft Dynamics Application Scope activity.
5. Enter values for the Input properties.

  Note:

  To get the ActivityId value, use an activity or run an external process that outputs the activity identifier(e.g., Insert Record, Search Records).

  Only activity objects that can be associated with an attachment may be used (i.e., email, appointments, template). If the activity object does not support attachments, the following error is returned:

  }
