    Hi, This is because this Command is available from NAV2018. If you are using NAV2017, you can import objects into 2018 and run this command.

    More details:

    Hope this will help.

    Thanks.

    Have you tried to copy the command from this documentation to see if that works?

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics-nav/exporttonewsyntax

    Maybe it can be an authentication issue?
