Hi,

I'm working against a Navision 2016 instance, and I need to be able to create an entry which may contain multiple subentries (such as Order and OrderLines).

The OData web service I'm connecting to has a Navigation Property to the lines service.

Is it possible for me to issue a single POST request, which would create both the header object, and all the lines belonging to the header, in a single request?

If so, is this documented somewhere?

Regards,

Daníel

Hi Daniel,

This is quite an old post and there are more available with an example.

Some documentation can be found here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics-nav/web-services but there are other blog posts with examples.

Another way of doing it is creating the logic in NAV, exposing it through codeunit webservices with XMLPort parameters and creating it that way from the outside interface.

Cheers,

Robert
