    RefreshTokenOAuth 2.0 authentication. You need to specify the DynamicsConnectionStringBuilder.Server, DynamicsConnectionStringBuilder.RefreshToken, DynamicsConnectionStringBuilder.ClientId, and DynamicsConnectionStringBuilder.ClientSecret parameters for this kind of authentication. The easiest way to use it is to create a connection at design time in Server Explorer. In this case you may omit specifying the Client ID and Client Secret and obtain the Refresh Token simply by signing in to Dynamics CRM at design time.
    UserNamePasswordUsername/password authentication. You need to set the DynamicsConnectionStringBuilder.Server, DynamicsConnectionStringBuilder.UserId, and DynamicsConnectionStringBuilder.Password properties for this kind of authentication.
