4Hi guys. First time poster. Reaching my 9th hour on this issue and my final braincell
I've separated this with dot points to help with reading. I'm hoping that I've given as much context as possible.
Context:
- Working through the modules to prepare for /Exam MB-820 - Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central Developer/
- Currently work in an organization with licenses provided from a third party
- My licenses are:
- Dynamics 365 Business Central Essentials
- Microsoft 365 Business Premium
- Microsoft Power Automate Free
Goal:
- To get a sandbox environment set up so I can study and learn AL code
- To complete /Exam MB-820 - Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central Developer/
Problems:
- Third party seems to have sandbox access restricted. I cannot use VScode to connect to our organizations sandbox(s)
- So I've elected to create a free trial. But since our organization is already a Business Central customer, I'm unable to create a trial version
- (I can only use a work email, and this is the only work email that I have. When I try to apply for a free trial, it just redirects me to my organizations Business Central landing page)
- I will not be able to get authorisation to have our third party provider to make edits, as their hourly rate is extremely high and my superiors will not allow it (Three year contract as well geez)
Other Solutions attempted:
- Getting a Docker set up. Because of our IT admins, I'm unable to download any new software (I was fortunate enough to get VScode)
- I've signed up to Azure trial and given them card details. I haven't been able to discover a solution but i suspect this will be the avenue to find the solution. I set up a VM but its very slow and painful. I am dreading this being the solution.
- Investigating Livestyle Services and Power Platform admin center.
- Contacting Microsoft support. They directed me here.
Other information / Error messages
- Accessing https://businesscentral.dynamics.com/[TenantID]/admin (with the TenantID adjusted) has resulted in an access denied error. When my superior attempted to access, he too got that error. Its all controlled by the third party.
- After inputting /AL: Go!/ and /AL: Download Symbols/ in VScode, I'm hit with:
The request for path /v2.0/sandbox23/dev/packages?publisher=Microsoft&appName=System&[etc etc etc] code Forbidden. Reason: Your licence does not grant you the following permissions on TableData 2000000206 Published Application: IndirectRead for company CRONUS AU
To view details about your permissions, see the Effective Permissions page. To report a problem, refer to the following server session ID: '215017'.
(I'm aware of the sandbox name, and that is the correct name)
Summary:
- I'm eight hours in and I'm scraping the bottom of the barrel here
- It seems a bit weird that there is such a massive barrier to learning/education that there must be something critical and simple that I've done wrong.
- Main goal: To get a sandbox that I can play with and learn AL code. Any solution that gets that goal is good.
