Getting Started with Rest API

Posted on by FredMibu

Hello. I am trying to get started using Rest API with an onPrem Sandbox (running in docker) of BC365.

My first question is really simple.

My server instance runs here

https://3e39137b256e/NAV/

(which is local on my machine)

I try to follow https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics-nav/api-reference/v1.0/endpoints-apis-for-dynamics

I went to API Setup and chose the 5 default to integrate APIs. It took a few seconds and i didnt have a confirmation or error, so i dont know if it worked.

next I just need to start using Postman to list all the API available and the companies etc..

so I tried to do a get 3e39137b256e:7048/.../v1.0 (and all possible permutations v2.0, remove soapbox, etc...)

and all i get is 503 Service Available.

i tried 3e39137b256e:7048/.../Chart_of_Accounts

and it works (assuming i include user and password)

to start I just need the proper way to query the available APIs running on my bc server instance

Thanks

Are you able to access the API from the web browser and did use Basic Authentication with user id and web service key ?
