Posted on by LateroDev

Hi, I am attempting to obtain "isVisible" status through the Business Central API, by running a GET request against

businesscentral.anipet.com:7048/.../items(n3bdshn32hbnbsdn32342nsdn3234n23)

I obtain data like:

{"@odata.context"=>"">businesscentral.anipet.com:7048/.../$metadata
"@odata.etag"=>"W/\"REDACTED\"",
"id"=>"n3bdshn32hbnbsdn32342nsdn3234n23",
"number"=>"56872",
"displayName"=>"Kuddly Kitty Tearless Kitten Shampoo 8OZ | Cat",
"type"=>"Inventory",
"itemCategoryId"=>"redacted",
"itemCategoryCode"=>"GROOMING",
"blocked"=>false,
"gtin"=>"",
"inventory"=>49,
"unitPrice"=>9.85,
"priceIncludesTax"=>false,
"unitCost"=>5.27,
"taxGroupId"=>"redacted",
"taxGroupCode"=>"TAXABLE",
"baseUnitOfMeasureId"=>"redacted",
"baseUnitOfMeasureCode"=>"PC",
"lastModifiedDateTime"=>"2022-04-07T20:56:32.753Z"}

IDs changed or redacted for security.

How am I able to obtain more information about a specific item? Thanks.

Hi, If you use the standard APIs, you cannot get data beyond the standard defined fields.

For example, the following is the API you are using now, page 30008 "APIV2 - Items"

So if you want to get more fields, you can create an new API page yourself.

More details: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/business-central/dev-itpro/developer/devenv-develop-custom-api

PS: If you want to get the data associated with the Item table, you can use the ?$expand method, but this also requires the associated API page to exist.

Hope this will help.

Thanks.
