Additional fields / new api endpoint

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 69

Hi there, 
I am trying to do something and would wanto know if I am on the right track or not and if not, what would be the right / correct one.

Here´s the scenario. I am building a slightly more complex approval workflow using additional information in BC and PowerAutomate

I added dditional fields in Sales Header Table and Sales Quote pages for a specific Resource (the person technicaly responsible for informaiton that led to the quote.
this works well. 

now I want to add an api page to be able to get sales quote info (once approval is requested)  that includes more than the standard fields. (also skip loads of fields the standard API delivers and are not needed)

can I refer to the table / page extension fields directly ? 

OR

do I need to add a totally new table , lets call it TechResource where I add a row for each Technician added on a sales Quote page ? 
also, how would I go about that ? I have another case where I put fields from a new table to an existing page, but those were read only and the data is added in a new card / list. 

thanks in advance

    Hi, just adding some info.

    Can we extend standard APIs? – Download Standard Source Code for APIs

    Hope this helps as well.

    Thanks.

    You should not need a new table. As long as you already have a relationship between the sales header and the TechResource.

    So you just have to build one page where you publish the data you want available in your API.
