Entity does not support insert

Posted on by 96

I am using the following API URL to post the data in dimension values of Business Central from Power Automate-
https://api.businesscentral.dynamics.com/v2.0/(tenant_id)/Sandbox/api/v2.0/companies(company_id)/dimensions(dimension_id)/dimensionValues

For GET call I can retrieve a List of all dimensions available in the environment.
but for POST Method it is throwing an error.

"Entity does not support insert."
 

any help will be appreciated.

Regards 
S Ghotekar

    Hi, You are using the standard API, not the page in BC, try adding the following id.
    page 30040 "APIV2 Dimension Values Entity"
     
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks.

    Hi Yun Zhu,

    I've set the access for the Dimension Values to "Allow Write" in the Database Access Intent, but I'm still encountering the same error?
    Also, I tried with giving "Allow Write" access to all Dimension Values.
