Using Power Platform Dataflows to extract and process data from BC Sandbox environment

There a great post how to create ETL process from Business Central via connection to OData by Christian Heide Damm. But my issue is that at the moment Production is not yet ready and I am working in sandbox environment and preparing ETL 

I have tried to replace in the URL to data source production via sandbox but it was not successful: https://api.businesscentral.dynamics.com/v2.0/production/api/v1.0/companies

Did anyone had a similar issue and know how to go around this issue?

I have the same question (0)

    Hi,

    which auth.method you used? I set up like on the picture below and used the URL https://api.businesscentral.dynamics.com/v2.0/Sandbox/api/v1.0/companies and connected successfully.

    What is the name of your sandbox environment?

    That was the issue, it worked now. (I am new in BC and Power BI world). Our Sandbox is called a bit different. Now I see that only standard tables (or are those entities?) available.

    We have in the system many custom tables which I need for the ETL process. They are via API enabled in Web Services, which I can "pull" in Desktop Power BI. How do I make them available?
