Generating a URL to a Document in BC from an external application

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Ibu 25

I'm building a Power BI report presenting Customer Ledger Entries by their Document No. I would like to make those clickable to send the user to the Document in BC directly. 

Is it possible to generically link to a document (of any "Document Type") and if so, what is the URL format?

I did find documentation on Web Client URL - Business Central | Microsoft Learn, though it isn't clear to me which parameters correspond to this use case (is it a page, a table, a query, ...?).

I have the same question (0)

    Hi,

    You can use multiple filters to limit the view, if you want to embed the page in another app you could use something similar to -

    businesscentral.dynamics.com/.../sandbox Type' is 'Order' and 'No.' is 'S-ORD101002'&showparts=0&showribbon=0&shownavigation=0&isembedded=1

    Thanks. Could you re-post the complete URL of your example? It seems like some characters were stripped out. The "'Type' is 'Order' and ..." part seems like the value to a query parameter but what's the query parameter name?

    Hi,

    That did paste strange - I hope this comes through - if not, I will paste an image

    businesscentral.dynamics.com/.../sandbox Type' is 'Order' and 'No.' is 'S-ORD101002'&showparts=0&showribbon=0&shownavigation=0&isembedded=1

    Hi,

    I dropped the protocol from the begining of the url

    businesscentral.dynamics.com/fe3e3fd0-xxxx-xxxx-9af5-52421afbd979/sandbox?company=CRONUS%20USA%2C%20Inc.&page=42&filter='Document Type' is 'Order' and 'No.' is 'S-ORD101002'&showparts=0&showribbon=0&shownavigation=0&isembedded=1
