API Integration Business Central Cloud with on-premises

(3) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 33
Hi!

I have 2 Business Central environments. One Cloud, the other On-premises. I would like to integrate data exchange between these two environments after API.

Calling the Cloud endpoint on the on-prem side is not a problem, but I wonder how to solve it the other way.

On both the Cloud and on-prem side, I have an API done on codeunit, which is exposed as a WebService.

How do I call the on-prem endpoint from the Cloud environment? I assume some sort of VPN will be needed here. Is there any solution via Azure or other Microsoft tools?

Best Regards
I have the same question (0)

    To integrate the Business Central API between its online (cloud) and on-premises versions, you'll typically use the Business Central REST API and potentially Power Automate or other integration tools. This allows for secure communication and data exchange between the two environments.

    Hi, In addition, there is a similar standard function that can synchronize On-Pre and SaaS data, which I hope can also give you some hints.

    Power Automate can be used to integrate data between on-premises and cloud Business Central environments. It enables secure communication and data exchange by connecting to on-premises APIs using a gateway.

    Hi 
     
    Use Self-hosted Gateway + Azure API Management
    Install self-hosted gateway on-prem.
    Register and manage APIs via Azure API Management.
    Another Option
    Use VPN or ExpressRoute
    Set up a secure connection between Azure and on-prem.
    Host a middleware (e.g., Azure Function) that accesses on-prem directly.
     
    Thanks,
    KP
