Dynamics 365 Business Central is a solution that in ever larger numbers is deployed in the cloud. Whilst having the advantage of less systems administration, it also has the disadvantage of less easily available server performance metrics. Microsoft delivers application performance metrics of cloud Business Central environments to Application Insights.
In this workshop you will learn how to find these metrics, and how you can add new metrics from your own apps.
Also, Application Insights is not only limited to cloud deployments. You will learn how you can use it for monitoring your customer’s on-premises environment.

The course is split into 2 parts:

Part 1
4 hrs 1:many Online tutoring via Teams

Part 2
Up to 2 hours follow up with the instructor on 1:1 basis (to be organized by the instructor directly with students)

Please Note: students are offered their follow-up slots with our instructor and this is included in the price.
If students deny the 1:1 offering, they will still be charged for the full price. 
 

Learn how to use Application Insights as a tool to monitor Business Central environment, both in cloud as in on-premises deployments.
Consultant, Developer, Systems administrator
-Introduction

This 1 Day Workshop, delivered by our PTS, Jan Veenendaal, teaches developers how to automate testing of your Business Central extensions.

With Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central in the cloud, having updates rolling out automatically each month, you need to make sure that your extension will be working on the next version – before your customers are updated. Any customization you would do for Business Central has the potential of breaking when Microsoft does a new release.
Therefore, learning how to develop self-testing is critical to the success of your Business Central SAAS deployment, and will ensure that upgrades does not impact on your customers’ businesses.

Testimonial

“Coming into my role as a Graduate Business Central Consultant I had very limited knowledge of the system and had no first-hand experience of using the system. I found many online resources aimed at giving me a better understanding of Business Central  very out-dated and many were not tailored around my role as a Consultant. 
When I enrolled on the Business Central Booster course I didn’t have this issue, the course is very well structured from beginning to end with a great mix between Webinars, Video demonstrations and the Microsoft learn content. I thought it was great how the full course is tailored around the consultants role, basically starting from the ground up. Also, at the end of each section you’re giving assignments to complete which really aids your development as it puts theory into practice. 
Finally, the course instructors are extremely helpful with any queries you may have in relation to the course and assignments, I had a response within a couple hours in most cases. Highly recommended for anyone working with Business Central.”

This training course is hosted by Arend-Jan Kauffmann, who has a wealth of experience with Dynamics NAV/BC.

This online course is a series of 4 sessions about APIs in Business Central. There are so many possibilities with APIs beyond the standard usage. After this course, you will have learned how to make optimal use of all those possibilities. The course will be delivered online with Teams. All sessions will be recorded and distributed to the attendees.

Learning Objective
Learn how to use Business Central APIs and how to create your own custom APIs for Business Central

Target Audience
This course can be followed by anyone who is interested in using APIs in Business Central, developers and non-developers alike. For the session about custom APIs it helps if you understand AL code.

Program
Session 1 – Standard APIs
Business Central supports APIs out-of-the-box. In the first session we will explore which APIs are available and how to use them. We will also look at available tools you need to call and test APIs. An important part of Business Central is the support of OData parameters. You will learn which parameters you can use and how it helps to get the data you are looking for.

Session 2 – Advanced features of APIs
There is a lot more to know about Business Central APIs. We will first dive into options to get a better performance, like deep inserts and batch calls. You will also learn about webhooks, a mechanism to subscribe to data changes in API data. Furthermore, we will discuss the possibilities to call code by means of bound and unbound actions. Finally, we will go over the limitations of APIs and how to work with them.

Session 3 – Authorization and APIs under the hood
Authorization is an essential aspect of APIs. We will go over the different options and pay much attention to OAuth in particular. Furthermore, we will also look under the hood of the standard APIs. They are written in AL code, and it makes a lot of sense to understand how they work. We will dive into the source code of the APIs and learn some lessons and best practices that can help us when creating custom APIs.

Session 4 – Custom APIs
In this final session, you will learn how to create your own custom APIs. This will include a lot of do’s and don’ts. During this session, we will also look at nested types and how they can help you to make even better APIs.

Prerequisites 
You need to have a Business Central environment available to work with APIs yourself. Preferably an online sandbox, but a local installation will also work. During the first session we will discuss what tools you need to test APIs. To create custom APIs you need to have VS Code installed and to know how to create a standard AL workspace.
