REST API

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hi,

I need to add records to a Staging table in Navision from a third party application which supports REST API.

I have added/updated/viewed/deleted records from my application using their API

Eg

<form method="POST" action="xxxxxx.com/.../add">
<input type="hidden" name ="authtoken" value="***************">
<input type="hidden" name ="scope" id="scope" value="xxxxxxxxxxxx">
<input type="text" name="Name" value="Test">
<input type="text" name="DOB" value="12-Jun-1980">
<input type="text" name="Address" value="Test,UK">
<input type="submit" value="Add Record">
</form>

Is this possible using REST API?

If so what do I need to make it work?

Thank you.

    since nav 2013 procides odata webservices, which support den rest data protocol. but it's only usable to read data from nav. since nav 2015 odata suports read/write.

    so in your case you have to develope your own solution. either using custom code in nav or you could work with a nav soap webservice. this webservice is called by a custom app developed by you (windows service). this app also communicates with the third party app using rest.
