.NET web application connecting to NAV Web Services (Login issue)

Hi All,

Relatively new to NAV 2015, I’ve created a SharePoint Portal that connects to NAV via webservices. The below snippet is my current connection method to NAV which works well.

The dedicated NAV login account details are stored in a SharePoint List, this works fine , my question is around the approach, as I’m lead to believe using a dedicated User account is not allowed for internal users due to Multiplexing (believe it’s called).

Is there another way to connect i.e. passing a username & there web service access key?

Many Thanks.

// Calls Function from The CoreFunctions Class File to get the login details & stuff in an array

ArrayList Details = CF.NAVLoginDetails();

// The Web Service URL – Stored in SharePoint

string serviceUri = CF.NAVWebServiceURL();

//Setting up NAV Conection

DataServiceContext context = new DataServiceContext(new Uri(serviceUri));

NAV nav2 = new NAV(new Uri(serviceUri));

// Setting NAV Credentials (Username,Password,Domain

nav2.Credentials = new System.Net.NetworkCredential(Details[1].ToString(), Details[2].ToString(), Details[0].ToString());
