I have a Business Central v18.0 On-Prem client that wants to use the pdfDocument functionality in an API to download reports.

I have configured my Postman API setup to retrieve the Sales Invoice Data, which worked great. I was able to retrieve the information. Th

http://*********/UAT/api/beta/companies(*********)/salesInvoices(4a504f68-e9a6-ed11-8b9a-00155d001620)

According to the Microsoft Documentation https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/business-central/dev-itpro/api-reference/v2.0/api/dynamics_pdfdocument_get we only net to add "pdfDocument" and a link with the report will be returned.

Here is the new URL with pdf documents attached
http://*********/UAT/api/beta/companies(*********)/salesInvoices(4a504f68-e9a6-ed11-8b9a-00155d001620)/pdfDocument

The first time it did work and it did return the URL for the report. The second time I received the following error.

I need to get the reports through a URL. Any assistance to remedy this would be highly appreciated.
Thanks

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.

..\Applications\APIV2\Source

After Publishing and installing V2.0 was available on the web service Table = 2000000193
