Company Id null in Business Central on Premises

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by ivanrjlg 42

Hello,

 

We are trying to create a Custom API in Business Central on Premises, but we see that when we get the list of companies, all the ids return null.

 

What do you recommend us to do? In the on-premises Id Company Null is always returned or is it a problem that we must solve? or the API call is made in a different way than this:

 

{{baseUrlAPI}} = https://<base URL>:<port>/<serverinstance>/api/<API publisher>/<API group>/<API version>

 

{{baseUrlAPI}}/companies({{CompanyIDMSCE}})/BCApiPlurE

 

Thank you very much in advance,

    Company ID is never null, but it contains the SystemId field of the record.
    Are you calling the correct url? You need to call the /companies standard endpoint:
    https://
    <base URL>:<port>/<serverInstance>/api/<API version>/ companies

    Hello, thank you very much for your time,

    The problem occurs because this Business Central on Premises comes from a migrated version of NAV2016, which just confirmed that this field did not exist.

    Maybe there was an error in the upgrade?

    What has occurred to us is to clone the company and delete the previous one, but we don't know if there is a best practice to solve this problem.

    Thank you so much,
