The Dynamics 365FO Business Events functionality is currently available as a preview feature since the release of Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations Platform Update 24. With the new Business Events functionality, we can finally integrate D365FO directly with workflow based cloud development tools like...

In Dynamic 365 for Finance and Operations the service endpoints we create are deployed automatically upon build, without the need of any additional setup or configuration we used to do with legacy AIF services. However, in current API services, we do not have many of the configuration possibilities...

Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations is built on open standards like OAuth 2.0, OData v4 and RESTful JSON Web service APIs, which makes it possible for us to integrate our business apps with many different platforms and environments. One of these possibilities is integration with the popular mobile...

To keep this blog up to date I would like to mention some changes done in code extensibility of D365 for Finance and Operations since my last post about D365FO extensibility, AX7 (D365) Chain of command with examples , in November 2017. Replaceable keyword In chain of command method extensions, now you...

Dynamics 365 FO has an API to create URL links that point to certain forms and records, in other words “Deep links”. This way you can share a record or query within AX with others for example within an e-mail, or inside an extensible control you have written. Below I give an example method...

As of platform update 9 of Dynamics AX for Operations, we have a new extension possibility called chain of command. Now we are able to add pre and post functionality to extensible methods in a much easier and readable manner than the previously used event handlers, also we are now able to access protected...

AX7 allows you to develop new user interface components called ‘extensible controls’ using HTML, Javascript and other web programming technologies.
