Expose Business Central API as CDS Virtual Entity (without code)
Business Central 2020 release wave 2 give us a new possibility. If we only want to pass data from BC to CDS – now we don’t need to create Entity in CDS. We could use existing APIs as virtual entities in it.
Probably you could want to read my previous articles about CDS Setup and Replicating BC data to CDS.
Replication of own Business Central table to CDS
As I promised before – new blog about building replication of custom table to CDS. About CDS connection setup you could read here and now we could start.
All the code for current demo you can find in my repository – https://github.com/ABaludin/CDSBox
Let’s begin:
Set up Common Data Service connection for Business Central
Today we set up Common Data Service connection for our Business Central environment.
I really appreciate Renato Fajdiga for his blog about this topic but I think I could add more details to that. Also I’m planning additional articles about CDS integration and you’ll need initial setup to start with.
