Business Central Cloud: Custom Extensions Disappear Unexpectedly

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 10

I've been experiencing a perplexing issue in the cloud version of Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. My custom extensions, which are critical to my workflows, occasionally disappear from the platform.

Here’s what I’ve observed:

  • The extensions seem to get uninstalled or deleted unexpectedly.
  • This behavior occurs intermittently, and there doesn’t appear to be a consistent trigger.
  • I’ve started implementing measures to mitigate the risk of losing data associated with these extensions, but the issue persists.

Now, I’m left with two primary questions:

  1. Could this be caused by someone in my organization with administrative permissions? For example, are they maliciously uninstalling or deleting the extensions?
  2. Is this potentially a quirk of the Business Central Cloud platform itself?

I’d greatly appreciate any insights into:

  • How to audit such actions in the system to determine if someone with permissions is responsible.
  • Known quirks or behaviors in Business Central Cloud that might lead to this issue.

If you’ve encountered a similar problem or have suggestions on how to diagnose and resolve this, your advice would be invaluable.

Thank you in advance!

    Is this a sandbox environment and are the extensions published from VS?
