Microsoft is removing Web Service Access Keys (Basic Auth) for SaaS with Business Central 2022 release wave 1 (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/business-central/dev-itpro/upgrade/deprecated-features-...). From April 2022 the Rest Connector doesn't work with Business Central SaaS API (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics-nav/api-reference/v2.0/). OAuth-Support for the Rest Web Service like with your "Microsoft Dynamics CRM V2 Connector" is necessary to access the Business Central API (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/business-central/dev-itpro/developer/devenv-develop-con...).

Any update on this one Qlik?

Not having Oauth authentication on the REST connector nor having a Business Central connector will make it difficult to use Qlik with BC after wave 2022.

I'm looking at alternative solutions (CData Sync + Azure SQL DB) to handle this requirement, which I don't want to when using Qlik Sense SaaS

Any update to this or the linked (and similar) idea. 

Perhaps  @Michael_Tarallo  could help out?

this is what ive been looking for. absolutely must have this in my opinion.

Microsoft have released a new BC Connector for Power BI which also has the new common API endpoints, as well as the 'legacy' Odata feeds. Wondering if anyone from Qlik will acknowledge this idea? @Jamie_Gregory

As the idea to have a Business Central connector has been marked as "Not Planned",  (see here > Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central Connector ... - Page 2 - Qlik Community - 1775186), which is very disappointing, will this idea be looked at? 

Can you comment on this please @P-O_Davidson ? 

We already can connect to Business Central via REST, but as Microsoft are depreciating the web service key access method, we need OAuth support on either the REST or ODATA connection.

[Carl_Hunter]

Can someone at Qlik please look into this idea? 

[Alastair_Ometis]

Likewise we have a heavy need for this and we are running out of lead time to get the leg work done.

@P-O_Davidson @Meghann_MacDonald Can someone look into this?
