Best way to connect to BC for using OData

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Knofan 49

Hey Guys,

Im using MSAL to conenct to BC and run api calls. Im currently using this to download Items and orders. But i also need to get Item Reference´s. More specificly, EAN information (barcodes). But it does not seems that the API include a way do access the barcodes and my option is to use a specialized query and download them from there.

How is it best accomplished? I have searched for ways to access BC and run the query but did not find much information.

Can any of you point me in the right direction?

Thanks!

    Yes, this is the plan. But how do i connect with OAuth in the best way? Is there any example code to look at?

    For some samples about setting up OAuth, see the BCTech repo.
