Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central v2 connector

Summary

The Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central v2 connector establishes access to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central.

The Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central v2 connector provides an interface for creating a Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central v2 connection, the foundation used for generating instances of Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central v2 activities. These activities, once configured, interact with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central through the connection.

The Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central v2 connector is accessed from the design component palette's Project endpoints and connectors tab (see Design Component Palette).

Connector overview

This connector is used to first configure a Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central v2 connection. Activity types associated with that connection are then used to create instances of activities that are intended to be used as sources (to provide data in an operation) or targets (to consume data in an operation).

Together, a specific Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central v2 connection and its activities are referred to as a Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central endpoint:

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central v2 activity types

  • Query: Retrieves records from an entity in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central and is intended to be used as a source in an operation.

  • Create: Inserts records into an entity in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central and is intended to be used as a target in an operation.

  • Update: Updates records in an entity in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central and is intended to be used as a target in an operation.

  • Delete: Deletes a record from an entity in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central and is intended to be used as a target in an operation.
