v28.3 was rolled into one environment overnight. Now when we are attaching documents to Sales Orders, Sales Invoices or Sales Credit Memo via the API (/documentAttachments) through an Entra Enterprise App, the exception "Your license does not grant you the following permissions on CodeUnit 6989 Expense Attachment" is returned.

Expenses is not used and no users are configured to use it.

Another environment still on v28.2 works still perfects with the exact same code. This API call was working in this environment in v28.2 yesterday

(Correction, is /documentAttachments not /Attachments)

Hello Mike,

Since the same /documentAttachments call worked in v28.2 and started failing immediately after the v28.3 update with a license error on standard Codeunit 6989, this strongly looks like a v28.3 regression in the standard API/entitlement path, not an issue with your Entra app setup or Expenses configuration. Recheck that the Entra application still has the required Business Central permission sets, but because this is a license entitlement error rather than a normal permission-set error, adding object permissions may not solve it. I would raise a Microsoft support ticket and provide the working v28.2 environment, failing v28.3 environment, full API request, timestamp, correlation ID, and the exact error; republishing or changing your integration should not be the permanent fix.

Regards,

I uninstalled the Expense Agent (Preview) for Germany. No effect.
I then uninstalled the Expense Agent (Preview) with Data Deletion. SUCCESS!!!!!

There 2 previews were automatically installed with 28.3

It was the Global Expense Agent (Preview) that broke us. 28.3 brought a bad preview with it.

I happened to stumble on "Issue ID 6546294: Expense Agent is currently unavailable in the Germany region" and thought that I rip them out in case it was them.

And of course, Document Posting via the API also broke as we have the "digital vouchers" enabled

There the API responded with Error 400. A very "useful" error....not.
