Summary

In this chapter, we gave an overview of how to use the OData stack (and RESTful APIs, in particular) for integration with Dynamics 365 Business Central. We saw how to handle authentication with Microsoft Entra ID, how to use standard APIs, how to create custom APIs, how to create applications that use Dynamics 365 Business Central APIs, and how to use advanced concepts such as batches, bound and unbound actions, and webhooks.

At the end of this chapter, you were given a complete overview of how to expose Dynamics 365 Business Central business logic and entities and how to handle integrations with external applications by using REST HTTP calls and webhooks. APIs are the recommended way for creating integrations between Dynamics 365 Business Central and external applications.

In the next chapter, we’ll see how to use Azure Functions and other serverless services with Dynamics 365 Business Central extensions to improve your integrations.
