Is the extension for Business Central made by a partner only visible for the partner or do we have also the right to see the downloadable version (only reed not write)? We don't want to change anything we just want to see what is different from the original BC.

Hi, hope the following helps.

Business Central 2021 wave 2 (BC19) new features: Richer access control for extension source in cloud environments (‘showMyCode’ -> ‘resourceExposurePolicy’)

PS: Business Central 2022 wave 2 (BC21) new features: Resource exposure policies for apps are on by default (“allowDebugging”: true, “allowDownloadingSource”: true, “includeSourceInSymbolFile”: true)

Thanks.

Hi

It is correct, what our colleague mentions. Additionally, in case it is of interest to you, I am providing you with information about the configurations that can be applied to extensions to protect them.

I would say it depends on the agreement with Your partner. Some insist that the intellectual property of developed code stays with the partner, but lately customers insist that the IP is theirs for the custom developments specifically for them.

If IP is Yours, then You have the right to ask for the source code from Your partner.
