Hi
We are thinking of creating an API integration between 4 fields from our posted general ledger to another business system. What is the easiest way to find the relevant API endpoints and the appropriate documentation? 
Thanks in advance

    You can create an API page based on the table and then can use as per need.
     
     
    Just use GET to retrieve the data and do whatever you wish in the other system, Don't go for modification in BC for this posted side or else be very careful.

    Hi Catherine,
     
    The easiest way to find the relevant API endpoints for Business Central is to refer to Microsoft’s official API documentation:
     
    🔗 API v2.0 Reference:
     
     
    To get started:
     
    1. Identify the standard endpoint: For general ledger data, there’s no direct standard API for the Posted General Ledger Entries, but you can expose them by:
     
    Creating a custom API page for G/L Entries (Table 17), if needed.
     
    Alternatively, use web services via the OData V4 URL (search for Web Services page in BC).
     
     
     
    2. Use the metadata URL to explore available endpoints dynamically:
    https://api.businesscentral.dynamics.com/v2.0/{tenant}/sandbox/api/data/$metadata
    (Replace with your environment info)
     
     
    3. If you're using AL development, you can create a custom API Page and expose just the four fields you need from the G/L Entry table.
     
     
     
    Let your Microsoft partner or a developer help set it up securely if custom exposure is needed.
