Misleading JSON representation

Running an API call on this returns a very similar JSON object but not quite the same.
The ID looks like a regular ID not a GUID
The "dimensions" is an array not just a string
It is also missing the "number" field in the response but is described above.

This was tested on a sandbox Business Central Environment.

Feature Limitations for Business Central SaaS Web Client

Hello
I cannot find any information about the BC web client's features limitations.
This page shows information only for Nav 2018 / Nav 2017.

Our customers want to switch from BC OnPrem Windows Client (BC v14) to BC OnPrem Web Client (BC v14) and need to know the "incompatibility" of the web client.

Can you help us ?
thank you

Clarification

My first suggestion would be to replace "For controls, you can use this property to limit the number of options that the user can select." with "You can use this property to DEFINE the options that the user can select." The property does not limit the number of options, and a user can only ever select one option, so "limit the number" has no real meaning.

Second: "You cannot add options". You can, and we did, and it does compile and run. (Page 9657; Customer Report Selections; variable Usage2). It does not, however, display the additional option in the dropdown for that variable (Why? That is what we were trying to find out by coming here). It would not seem possible for a user to "select an option outside the set of options defined for the field or variable"--where would they select it from?

The following example should be correct,

Please explain how you create a "Cancel button"

In the document, there is a reference to a so called "Cancel Button" which can influence the Action-Option returned. However i haven't found a description how to create such a button on a page. I

Built a wizard based on your guide (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics-nav/walkthrough--creating-a-wizard-page) and i don't want to execute any code if the user cancels the wizard. - I assume it should be possible to use the RUNMODAL return value to figure that out like it used to be in 6.0 and before.

On the 4th Example, the Which string is incorrect.

Which seems to have NO spaces in it (Which := 'This';), however description shows that "f T, h, s, i, or space is the first character in String, the function deletes them."

For this to happen, Which must be 'This ' (with a space on it).

Needs version supported information

On the old MSDN there used to be a drop down that would show you what the functionality looked like in other versions of NAV. I understand that going forward everything is BC, but until NAV customers upgrade, we're stuck helping with the issues they have.

For example, on this page, it would be amazing if I could immediately see that NAV 2016 has this deprecated and will not allow usage.

Wrong path in the docs

The documentation as of this comment states the endpoint path as
"GET https://{businesscentralPrefix}/api/v1.0/companies({id})/customerPaymentsJournals({id})"

This path yields an error "code": "BadRequest_NotFound", "message": "No HTTP resource was found that matches the request URI ...."

The correct endpoint path is:
"GET https://{businesscentralPrefix}/api/v1.0/companies({id})/customerPaymentJournals({id})"
Note that in the path segement "customerPaymentJournals" the text Payment is not pluralized. If you use the pluralized version it fails.

Dynamics 365 Business Central On-Prem Endpoint

Dear,

For developers it's useful to add some more info to the url endpoint for On-Prem API's.
According the documentation the url is structured in this way.
https://<base URL>:<port>/<serverInstance>/api/<API version>/
This is correct for the default API's made available by Microsoft.
When a partner develops its own API Page, the endpoint is structured this way:
https://<base URL>:<port>/<serverInstance>/api/<APIPublisher>/<APIGroup>/<API version>/
The APIPublisher and APIGroup is found in the properties of the custom API page:

page 50000 "My Custom API"
{
    PageType = API;
    Caption = 'Custom API';
    APIPublisher = 'abc';
    APIGroup = 'xyz';
    APIVersion = 'v1.0';
   ...

Kind regards,
Job

Data issues with the API

I've noticed a few things about the API and Graph API that act a little differently. I'm testing the API with the test company Cronos.

api.businesscentral.dynamics.com
Returns the dimensions field but is not returned from the microsoft graph api. Is there a reason why the dimensions are not included in the graph request vs the API? Is that being depreciated? Do I need to add a query param to request to get the dimension data?

2020-01-07_10-51-03

I've also noticed that the api.businesscentral.dynamics.com endpoint does not return all of the general ledger entries, it cuts off some of the data. The graph endpoint returns a few more lines of data. I tried filtering the general ledgers on a particular date but not all of the data appears from that same endpoint. In the app it shows 9 entries for April 8th but the API is only getting 2 entries back. Is there a reason why that data isn't returned?

Is this still true?

"The Microsoft.Dynamics.Nav.Client.BusinessChartData object is defined by a DotNet variable. The DotNet variable for the BusinessChartData object is configured to instantiate on the computer running the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Server."

Error in the page

I saw two wrong words:
...using IIS Manager, select Routihg Rules...

HTTP_X_FORWARED_PROTO (shoud be ForwarDed)

And in my opinion, the text in this part are not clear enough:
To resolve this issue, on the server farm in IIS, add or edit a routing rule to include a server variable for X-Forwarded-Proto. For example, using IIS Manager, select Routihg Rules > URL Rewrite > Edit > Server Variables, and then add a server variable that has following settings:

Where did come the "Routing Rules > URL Rewrite"? From Home > WEBFARM > Routing Rules > URL Rewrite, why not "Home > URL Rewrite"? Maybe could be somethink like this:

...using IIS Manager, on the home page, select URL Rewrite > The rule you want > Edit > Server Variables, and then add a server variable that has following settings:

The orignal text go from the home to the webfarm's settings, then choose to URL Rewrite, rather than go from home directly to the URL Rewrite..
