Hi we have an onprem BC20 customer.
We need to use the pdfDocuments API. When looking at the available API web Services on Table = 2000000193 we cannot see the PDFdocument page.
Ons BC18 and BC20 on prem we can see the pdfdocument page (ID 30056) is exposed.
But on our BC20 onprem version there is no pdfDocument page.
How can we add/install the pdf document?
Also I noticed there is only beta version API on the cliens webservice. How van I add the API v2.0?
Thanks
Thank you ZHU,
Although I didn't use your answer. It did lead me to the correct way.
For some Reason. APIV2 extension wasn't installed.
Here is the weird part. The extensions for API are not shown in extension management.
We got the Microsoft__Exclude_APIV2_.app file from the onPrem download file.
..\Dynamics.365.BC.38230.W1.DVD\Applications\APIV2\Source
After Publishing and installing V2.0 was available on the web service Table = 2000000193
Hi, You can use the following method to find the code of this API, then copy it to your Extension, change the ID, and publish. (Might need to do some code upgrades)
