Sync CRM Security with Sharepoint

Question

I am a CRM Developer. We had a requirement to sync security roles of CRM with groups of sharepoint. For that I have create a mapping table where I have mapped CRM security roles with Sharepoint Groups. I am creating a plugin for CRM. We want when a user
is added to a CRM team then the same user should be added to corresponding sharepoint group and vice versa. I have the sharepoint group name and user logon. We want:-
1. If a user is added to CRM then my plugin will check whether the user exists in sharepoint if not then create it.
2. Add user to the desired group in sharepoint. I already have group name.
I am new to sharepoint therefore I will appreciate if someone can explain me in details what I have to do.
Thank you
Regards Faisal

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to sync the user between CRM system and SharePoint.
I suggest you can use Client Object Model to add user to group. 
For the error message, you need to load the groupcollection firstly before you loop it like below:
ClientContext ctx = new ClientContext(“http://foo”);
//get the groups
GroupCollection grps = ctx.Web.SiteGroups;
//load up the group info
ctx.Load(grps);
//execute the query
ctx.ExecuteQuery();
// enumerate
foreach (Group grp in grps)
// do something with each group
