How to call third party API when "post" action in the Sales Order in Dynamics 365 Business Central

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Vijay Jupudi 44

Hello, I'm new to Dynamics 365 and I have a requirement to integrate a third-party system into Dynamics 365 Business Central.

We need to call third-party API when the "Post" action performed in the Sales Order screen by the user in Dynamics 365 Business Central. 

Anybody has worked on calling API from D365 Business Central,  please give some inputs on how to achieve this.

Appreciate any help!

Thanks!

    I have done several integrations to third party API, you can use HttpClient to send the request, below is a simple example 

    RequestHeaders := HttpClient.DefaultRequestHeaders();
RequestHeaders.Add('Authorization', ''); // Add the authorization based on the API
RequestMessage.SetRequestUri(ApiURl));
RequestMessage.Content.WriteFrom(CreateJsonRequest());
RequestMessage.Method('POST');
IsSuccessful := HttpClient.Send(RequestMessage, ResponseMessage);

CreateJsonRequest is a method which creates a Json and returns the JsonText.

    Adding to the answer from Suresh.

    You can use a codeunit to create an event subscriber to the Sales Post codeunit. This will enable you to make the HTTP call as Suresh has suggested at the right point in the posting sequence

    Thank you Josh for a detailed explanation.

        How to publish the new codeunit to Client Business Central Instance either through AppSource or another way to do that?

    Please provide any reference docs or links to me & will walk through it.

    Appsource explanation is much more long winded. Once you have it working I’d look at that as a completely separate learning exercise. Try this for now: community.dynamics.com/.../how-to-install-an-extension-created-from-the-sandbox
