## Overview

Cognizant Dataverse CRUD Demo is a console application for managing accounts, contacts, and incidents in Microsoft Dataverse. A user selects an entity area in the main menu, then performs create, read, update, delete, or list operations; entity-specific controllers collect input and display results through the console UI, while services perform Dataverse operations. List operations map Dataverse entities into application models. The README documents all three CRUD areas and input/API error feedback. The supplied source samples do not include Account and Incident model files, so their paths and conversion links rely on the documented tree and README.
