No permissions on TableData 2000000206 Published Application

(5) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 103
I'm trying to create a custom API page with AL but when I try to download the symbols in VS code I see: failed with code Forbidden. Reason: You do not have the following permissions on TableData 2000000206 Published Application: IndirectRead for company My Company.
 
In my sandbox environment I have permissions as a SUPER user, environmentType and environmentName are both correct . If I go to Effective Permissions - By Permission Set I see for this Table Data: Read Permission - Yes; Insert Permission - Indirect (reduced); Modify Permission - Indirect (reduced). 
 
Is this the root cause why I cannot download the symbols, that is the permissions set as Indirect (reduced)? If so, any idea why permissions are Indirect (reduced)?
 
I have the same question (0)

    Hello ,
     
    this is not an AL or SUPER issue, it’s a license/entitlement issue. VS Code symbol download needs indirect read access to system tables like Table 2000000206 (Published Application); although SUPER grants it, Business Central SaaS reduces the permission to “Indirect (reduced)” when the user is on a limited license (typically Team Member), and SUPER does not override that. That reduction causes the Forbidden / IndirectRead error during symbol download. Assign the user an Essentials or Premium license (and re-check Effective Permissions so it no longer shows “reduced”) and symbol download will work.

    Thanks a lot @OussamaSabbouh for clarifying. Indeed, we don't have a Premium/Essential license. A question: we are just prototyping at the moment, is it really necessary a more expensive license to create a custom API page? Is there any workaround or alternative solution? We need a field that at the moment is not exposed in the standard APIs.

    Hi,
     
    Yes, you need full licenses to publish any extension. Without it you will not be able to publish even if you have all the permission sets assigned.

    Thanks @Dhiren Nagar, I think I found a workaround: I've published an OData page through the Web Services. It comes with limitations, it's read-only, it may be modified or deprecated in the future but you just need a Free license. This is all I need in this stage. Thanks for the reply
