Hi all,
As most of us know that with Microsoft NAV 2018 Microsoft has released a great feature about API.
As per Microsoft, in standard NAV 44 API, have been released.
In API Series of articles, we will cover what is available in standard NAV 2018 and how we can add more API in Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2018.
I will start with the way I start exploring this feature in a set of multiple articles. During series of these articles if you think we need to cover anything new let me know I will try to add that in future articles.
1. To Start with Microsoft have added a New Page Type in NAV 2018 i.e API as shown below.
With that Microsoft have added new page properties EntityName,EntitySetName & ODataKeyFields.
We will use these fields in future articles.
All API Pages in NAV 2018 are listed below -
Item Entity
Customer Entity
Vendor Entity
Company Information Entity
Sales Invoice Entity
Customer Paym. Journal Entity
Account Entity
Tax Group Entity
Journal Entity
Employee Entity
G/L Entry Entity
Currencies Entity
Payment Methods Entity
Dimensions Entity
Dimension Lines Entity
Payment Terms Entity
Shipment Method Entity
Item Categories Entity
Cash Flow Statement Entity
Country/Regions Entity
Sales Order Entity
Retained Earnings Entity
Units of Measure Entity
Aged AR Entity
Aged AP Entity
Balance Sheet Entity
Trial Balance Entity
Income Statement Entity
Tax Area Entity
Sales Quote Entity
Sales Credit Memo Entity
Purchase Invoice Entity
IRS 1099 Form-Box Entity
Next exploration that I did was a field analysis that was added to these pages source table and to my surprise, Microsoft has added a new field with the
name ID & type GUID shown below. In most of the tables, the field is added in ID 8000.
Will share next part of exploration in next articles.
Let me know your views and stay tuned for Part 2 of API Article in NAV 2018.
