So, I have created an Extension, that has a lot of tables and Code Units.
How can I reference the objects of the previously Installed extension in the new extension that I'm working on?
You need to define a dependency between you new app and the old app you want to refer to.
It is defined in your app.json file that you can read more about here:
docs.microsoft.com/.../devenv-json-files
hi,
Take Installed App id and put this id in app.json "dependencies" property and then download AL symbols. in this way you will get the references of previous objects.

Hello Inge M. Bruvik,
Can I also see the code of the referred extension?
Thanks.
Hi,
You have to define like below in your App.json file.
Nitin Verma, Thanks for the answer.
I just want to ask one more thing, how can I see the code of the third-party extension while debugging? is it possible from my side to see the code of the referenced extension?
Actually it depends on third party app how they are managing show or not show their code or objects to others, but as you download the symbol same APP downloaded same time into .alpackages folder see the screen shot, then you try to navigate to their objects if they allowed.
