Hi all , im working on some basics to get to know Dynamics 365 Business Central better and im trying to create a new page type Card connected to a table which has two simple text fields. Im using visual studio code and hitting F5 im able to debug and open Dynamics 365 Business Central to see the page online, the page loads but it doesnt allow me to add data, the buttons for New/Edit are disabled and cant be clicked. The same happens also creating a Page type: List. So i saw a video online from Microsoft which they did two pages a type list and another type card and connected them both using CardPageId property so i did the same but the New/Edit are still disabled. Any idea why is this happening & any help will be appriciated,

below you can check the pages via pastebin

Card Page

List Page

Table

Also im using online Azure containers to work

heres' the launch.json file

Launch.json

EDIT: im trying to create a page but i dont know if is it possible in Dynamics 365 Business Central to create an independent page not extended to a different page like Customers etc. Cant find a real explanation in Microsoft Docs

Changed it and still the same resoluts

here the change for Booklist page

PageType = List;

ApplicationArea = All;

UsageCategory = Lists;

CardPageId = BooksCard;

SourceTable = Book;

Still the + New button is disabled and i cant add data in there

Edit: might this be some permission issue from Dynamics 365 Business Central ?

because im not the owner of the Package, ive been granted access

seems that you have no write permission, maybe modify, but not insert permission.

Are you accessing it from the Lists of your extension?

checked the code on local server, your code works, card page is editable.

so the permission problem is no code issue, but maybe a container or user permission issue.

additional change the object nos. to nos. in the range between 50100 and 50199. it could also be a license issue.

best you test your code on a local installation (onpremise) by yourself.

are you able to add/edit data in standard pages of that bc instance in azure (e.g. customers, items, etc.)?
