Is it possible to create a plug-in in the Dynamics CRM 2011 online that calls a WebService every 30 seconds, and does this all day long?
In a normal application, I would create an infinite loop with a Thread.Sleep(30000) inside, but Dynamics CRM online does not allow this. The CRM online kills my plug-in after 2 minutes.
Is there a way to achieve my goal? Maybe some kind of timers, system jobs or workflows?
From what I found on the internet, a workflow calling itself from time to time only works if there is a pause of about 70 minutes between calls; otherwise, CRM will consider this an infinite loop and kill it after 6-7 calls.
