This app enables you to flexibly extract data from Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central and integrate it into external systems.
It provides various web service endpoints that can be used either for technical integrations or for use in defined, preconfigured mappings.
Technical Usage
Developers and administrators can directly access the available web services to retrieve information about table structures and fields.
This foundational data is necessary to configure queries correctly.
You should first review which tables and fields are available in your Business Central environment.
You can use the provided endpoints to:
retrieve a list of all tables including their captions
identify all fields of a specific table
After determining the relevant IDs of tables and fields, you can define precisely which data should be returned in your queries.
These queries can be combined with filters to, for example, select only specific records or time periods.
For more information, see Working with the App, Endpoint Definition.
Usage with BC Configuration
For users who do not want to grant direct access to all raw data, it is possible to set up so-called mappings.
Mappings define which tables and fields are made available for external queries.
This way, you can precisely determine in Business Central which data will be accessible to external applications or partners.
After creating a mapping, technicians receive a mapping code.
This code is used in queries to access only the data defined in the mapping.
In this way, you as a customer always retain full control over which information is exported.
For more information, see Working with the App, Endpoint Definition.
