    RE: how to access database table in business central

    Hi, As other experts mentioned, with the SaaS version we don't have direct access to the database.
    The On-Premises version can directly access SQL like the previous NAV.

    Hope this helps as well.

    Thanks.

    Hi

    you cannot physically access a BC saas database

    alternatively you can.

    - check the data from the API

    learn.microsoft.com/.../

    - back up the database in .bacpac format and restore it to an On-prem version

    do you mean SaaS/Online?

    We do not have access to SQL database in Online but we can use APIs etc. for RIMD operations.
