oData urls not correct?

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by PhilDOakley 222

I have a new install of BC on prem V16 and when I go to the web services card the urls for the odata do not appear to be correct. 

I have 

https://publicURL:7048/OData/ODataV4/Company('Delph%20Manchester')/AccountantPortalActivityCues

If I cllick on this I get a 404 error so I am thinking one of the items in my config is wrong. Does this url look correct? 

I have the same question (0)

    Hello,

    After port, there is OData and after that there is another ODataV4. Is the Instance name OData or is this incorrect?

    Thanks

    The BC instance is BC160 so should that be where the odata is? If so where is this being pulled from and I can change it.

    I have overtyped the odata with the instance name of bc160 and that now displays correctly. I just need to make this correct in BC so it is picked up in the web services screen and I'm done :-)

    I found that the setting I need to change is in the oData URL in BC admin screen. I may have set this UR incorrectly at install as this had oData at the end. I have changed this and it is not displaying correctly in the web services screen :-)

    Hello,

    It is now displaying correctly or not displaying correctly? In a multi tenant setting with a rewrite host name rule name, the PublicODataBaseUrl may be different from what is being shown in web services.

    E.g.:

    PublicWebBaseUrl = servername.domainname.com:7048/.../

    Rewrite host name enabled in IIS and alternate ID set on the tenant to nav.domainname.com.

    Then web services may show the following:

    nav.domainname.com:7048/.../

    That is still correct.

    Thanks a lot.

    The public URL is correct. It was just the OData that was causing the issue. I looked in the BC manager and in the oData section there is a url. This was set as https://publicURL:7048/OData

    I changed this to https://publicURL:7048/bc160 and restarted the nst. The web services show the change and a click brings up the xml response after logging in.

    All is good now and thanks for pointing me in the right direction :-)
