Google drive integration wIth Business Central

 To integrate Google Drive into your AL (Business Central/NAV) code, you can use the Google Drive API and perform operations such as uploading files, downloading files, listing files, etc. Here's an example of how you can achieve this:


1. Set up the Google Drive API:

   - Create a project in the Google Cloud Console.

   - Enable the Google Drive API for the project.

   - Create credentials (OAuth client ID) to access the API.


2. Install the "Http Web Request" extension from Microsoft AppSource in your Business Central/NAV environment.


3. Create an AL codeunit or code snippet with the following functions:


```AL

codeunit GoogleDriveIntegration

{

    var

        HttpClient: DotNet "'System.Net.Http.HttpClient', 'System.Net.Http', Version=4.2.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a";

        HttpRequestMessage: DotNet "'System.Net.Http.HttpRequestMessage', 'System.Net.Http', Version=4.2.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a";

        HttpResponseMessage: DotNet "'System.Net.Http.HttpResponseMessage', 'System.Net.Http', Version=4.2.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a";


    procedure GetAccessToken(var AccessToken: Text)

    var

        AuthUrl: Text;

        ClientId: Text;

        ClientSecret: Text;

        RedirectUri: Text;

        TokenRequestUrl: Text;

        TokenResponse: Text;

        JsonObject: JsonObject;

    begin

        // Set your own values for the following variables:

        ClientId := 'YOUR_CLIENT_ID';

        ClientSecret := 'YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET';

        RedirectUri := 'YOUR_REDIRECT_URI';


        // Construct the authentication URL

        AuthUrl := 'https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth?';

        AuthUrl += 'response_type=code&';

        AuthUrl += 'client_id=' + UriEncode(ClientId) + '&';

        AuthUrl += 'redirect_uri=' + UriEncode(RedirectUri) + '&';

        AuthUrl += 'scope=https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive';


        // Launch the authentication URL in a browser and retrieve the authorization code


        // Construct the token request URL

        TokenRequestUrl := 'https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v4/token';


        // Build the request body

        HttpRequestMessage := HttpRequestMessage.HttpMethodPost(TokenRequestUrl);

        HttpRequestMessage.Content().WriteFrom('code=' + UriEncode(AuthorizationCode) + '&');

        HttpRequestMessage.Content().WriteFrom('client_id=' + UriEncode(ClientId) + '&');

        HttpRequestMessage.Content().WriteFrom('client_secret=' + UriEncode(ClientSecret) + '&');

        HttpRequestMessage.Content().WriteFrom('redirect_uri=' + UriEncode(RedirectUri) + '&');

        HttpRequestMessage.Content().WriteFrom('grant_type=authorization_code');


        // Send the request and get the response

        HttpClient := HttpClient.HttpClient();

        HttpResponseMessage := HttpClient.Send(HttpRequestMessage);


        // Read the response content

        TokenResponse := HttpResponseMessage.Content().ReadAsString();


        // Parse the JSON response

        JsonObject := JsonObject.JsonObject(TokenResponse);

        AccessToken := JsonObject.GetValue('access_token').ToString();

    end;


    procedure UploadFile(var AccessToken: Text; var FilePath: Text)

    var

        UploadUrl: Text;

        FileName: Text;

        ResponseContent: Text;

    begin

        // Set the file name for the uploaded file

        FileName := 'MyFile.txt';


        // Construct the upload URL

        UploadUrl := 'https


://www.googleapis.com/upload/drive/v3/files?uploadType=media';


        // Build the request

        HttpRequestMessage := HttpRequestMessage.HttpMethodPost(UploadUrl);

        HttpRequestMessage.Headers().Add('Authorization', 'Bearer ' + AccessToken);

        HttpRequestMessage.Content().WriteFrom(FilePath);


        // Send the request and get the response

        HttpClient := HttpClient.HttpClient();

        HttpResponseMessage := HttpClient.Send(HttpRequestMessage);


        // Read the response content

        ResponseContent := HttpResponseMessage.Content().ReadAsString();


        // Process the response as needed

        // ...

    end;


    procedure DownloadFile(var AccessToken: Text; var FileId: Text)

    var

        DownloadUrl: Text;

        ResponseContent: Text;

    begin

        // Construct the download URL

        DownloadUrl := 'https://www.googleapis.com/drive/v3/files/' + FileId + '?alt=media';


        // Build the request

        HttpRequestMessage := HttpRequestMessage.HttpMethodGet(DownloadUrl);

        HttpRequestMessage.Headers().Add('Authorization', 'Bearer ' + AccessToken);


        // Send the request and get the response

        HttpClient := HttpClient.HttpClient();

        HttpResponseMessage := HttpClient.Send(HttpRequestMessage);


        // Read the response content

        ResponseContent := HttpResponseMessage.Content().ReadAsString();


        // Process the downloaded file content as needed

        // ...

    end;

}

```


Note: The above code assumes you have obtained the access token through the OAuth2 flow. You may need to implement the OAuth2 flow separately or modify the code to fit your specific authentication requirements.


Remember to replace placeholders like `'YOUR_CLIENT_ID'`, `'YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET'`, and `'YOUR_REDIRECT_URI'` with your actual values.


These code snippets demonstrate the basic functionality for uploading and downloading files. You can extend the code to perform additional operations like listing files, deleting files, creating folders, etc., by making appropriate API calls to the Google Drive API.


Please note that this is a simplified example, and in a real-world scenario, you may need to handle error cases, manage authentication tokens, and handle large file uploads/downloads more efficiently.


Make sure to test the code thoroughly and handle any potential exceptions or errors that may occur during the integration process.

AL code for show all file of the sharing directory

 To show all files in a sharing directory using AL code in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, you can utilize the `FileManagement` codeunit to retrieve a list of files from the directory. Here's an example:


```AL

PROCEDURE ShowFilesInDirectory@1()

VAR

  FileManagement@1: Codeunit 419;

  DirectoryPath@2: Text[250];

  Files@3: List of [Text[250]];

  FilePath@4: Text[250];

BEGIN

  // Shared path of the directory

  DirectoryPath := '\\server\share\directory\';

  

  // Get a list of all files in the directory

  FileManagement.GetFilesFromDirectory(DirectoryPath, '', Files);

  

  FOR EACH FilePath IN Files DO BEGIN

    MESSAGE('File: ' + FilePath);

  END;

END;

```


In this example, we use the `FileManagement` codeunit to perform file-related operations. First, we set the `DirectoryPath` variable to the shared path of the directory containing the files you want to show.


The `GetFilesFromDirectory` function of the `FileManagement` codeunit retrieves a list of all files in the specified directory. The retrieved file paths are stored in the `Files` variable.


We then iterate over each file path in the `Files` list using a `FOR EACH` loop. For each file, we display a message box showing the file path using the `MESSAGE` statement.


Adjust the code according to your needs, and make sure that the shared directory is accessible from the server running Business Central and that the necessary permissions are set for accessing the shared folder and files within it.

AL code for show all file of the sharing directory and import into table blob

 To show all files in a sharing directory and import them into a table's Blob field using AL code in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, you can use the `FileManagement` codeunit to iterate over the files in the directory, read their contents, and store them in the Blob field. Here's an example:


```AL

PROCEDURE ImportFilesFromDirectoryToBlob@1()

VAR

  FileManagement@1: Codeunit 419;

  DirectoryPath@2: Text[250];

  Files@3: List of [Text[250]];

  FilePath@4: Text[250];

  FileContent@5: Text;

  ImportTable@6: Record 50000;

  InStream@7: InStream;

  Blob@8: Blob;

BEGIN

  // Shared path of the directory containing the files

  DirectoryPath := '\\server\share\directory\';

  

  // Get a list of all files in the directory

  FileManagement.GetFilesFromDirectory(DirectoryPath, '', Files);

  

  FOR EACH FilePath IN Files DO BEGIN

    // Read the content of the file

    InStream.OPEN(FilePath);

    InStream.READTEXT(FileContent);

    InStream.CLOSE;

    

    // Assign the content to the Blob field

    Blob.CREATEOUTSTREAM(OutStream);

    OutStream.WRITE(FileContent);

    OutStream.CLOSE;

    

    ImportTable.INIT;

    ImportTable.BlobField := Blob;

    ImportTable.INSERT(TRUE);

  END;

END;

```


In this example, we utilize the `FileManagement` codeunit to work with file-related operations. First, we set the `DirectoryPath` variable to the shared path of the directory containing the files you want to import.


The `GetFilesFromDirectory` function of the `FileManagement` codeunit retrieves a list of all files in the specified directory. The retrieved file paths are stored in the `Files` variable.


We then iterate over each file path in the `Files` list. For each file, we open it as an `InStream`, read its content into the `FileContent` variable, and close the `InStream`.


Next, we create a new `Blob` variable and use the `CREATEOUTSTREAM` method to create an output stream for writing to the Blob. We write the file content to the output stream and then close the stream.


Finally, we initialize the target table (`ImportTable` in this example), assign the Blob content to the desired Blob field (`BlobField` in this example), and insert the record into the table.


Make sure to adjust the code based on the structure of your table and Blob field.


Remember to ensure that the shared directory is accessible from the server running Business Central and that the necessary permissions are set for accessing the shared folder and files within it.

AL code for Import pdf document file from sharing path into table

 To import a PDF document file from a shared path into a table using AL code in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, you can utilize the `FileManagement` codeunit to copy the file from the shared path to a temporary folder, and then use the `InStream` data type to import the contents of the file into a table field. Here's an example:


```AL

PROCEDURE ImportPDFDocumentFromFile@1()

VAR

  FileManagement@1: Codeunit 419;

  TempFolderPath@2: Text[250];

  SourceFilePath@3: Text[250];

  PDFDocument@4: Record 50000;

  InStream@5: InStream;

  PDFContent@6: Text;

BEGIN

  // Shared path of the PDF document file

  SourceFilePath := '\\server\share\document.pdf';

  

  // Create a temporary folder to store the file

  TempFolderPath := FileManagement.GetTempPath;

  FileManagement.CreateDirectory(TempFolderPath);

  

  // Copy the file from shared path to temporary folder

  FileManagement.CopyFile(SourceFilePath, TempFolderPath + 'document.pdf');

  

  // Open the file as an InStream

  InStream.OPEN(TempFolderPath + 'document.pdf');

  

  // Read the content of the file into a Text variable

  InStream.READTEXT(PDFContent);

  

  // Close the InStream

  InStream.CLOSE;

  

  // Assign the content to the table field

  PDFDocument.INIT;

  PDFDocument."PDF Content" := PDFContent;

  PDFDocument.INSERT(TRUE);

  

  // Delete the temporary file and folder

  FileManagement.DeleteFile(TempFolderPath + 'document.pdf');

  FileManagement.DeleteDirectory(TempFolderPath, TRUE);

END;

```


In this example, we use the `FileManagement` codeunit to perform file-related operations. First, we set the shared path of the PDF document file in the `SourceFilePath` variable. Then, we create a temporary folder using the `GetTempPath` method and `CreateDirectory` method of the `FileManagement` codeunit.


Next, we copy the file from the shared path to the temporary folder using the `CopyFile` method of the `FileManagement` codeunit.


After that, we open the file as an `InStream` using the `OPEN` method. We then use the `READTEXT` method to read the content of the file into a `Text` variable (`PDFContent` in this example).


We close the `InStream` using the `CLOSE` method.


Finally, we initialize the target table (`PDFDocument` in this example), assign the PDF content to the desired field (`"PDF Content"` in this example), and insert the record into the table.


Make sure to adjust the code based on the table structure and field names in your scenario.


Additionally, we delete the temporary file and folder using the `DeleteFile` and `DeleteDirectory` methods of the `FileManagement` codeunit.


Ensure that the shared path is accessible from the server running Business Central and that the necessary permissions are set for accessing the shared folder.

AL code for send email with multiple recipient with zip attachment from sharing path

 To send an email with multiple recipients and a zip attachment from a shared path using AL code in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, you can modify the previous examples by using the `FileManagement` codeunit to create a zip file of the desired files from the shared path before attaching it to the email. Here's an example:


```AL

PROCEDURE SendEmailWithMultipleRecipientsAndZipAttachmentFromSharedPath@1()

VAR

  EmailMgt@1: Codeunit 400;

  EmailMessage@2: Record 441;

  Recipients@3: Record 442;

  Attachment@4: Record 443;

  FileManagement@5: Codeunit 419;

  TempFolderPath@6: Text[250];

  AttachmentPath@7: Text[250];

  ZipFilePath@8: Text[250];

BEGIN

  EmailMessage.INIT;

  EmailMessage.Subject := 'Test Email with Zip Attachment';

  EmailMessage.Body := 'This is a test email sent to multiple recipients with a zip attachment.';

  

  Recipients.INIT;

  Recipients."E-mail" := 'recipient1@example.com';

  Recipients.Insert;

  Recipients."E-mail" := 'recipient2@example.com';

  Recipients.Insert;

  Recipients."E-mail" := 'recipient3@example.com';

  

  // Shared path of the files to be zipped

  AttachmentPath := '\\server\share\files\';

  

  // Create a temporary folder to store the zip file

  TempFolderPath := FileManagement.GetTempPath;

  FileManagement.CreateDirectory(TempFolderPath);

  

  // Zip file path

  ZipFilePath := TempFolderPath + 'attachments.zip';

  

  // Create a zip file of the desired files from the shared path

  FileManagement.CreateZip(ZipFilePath, AttachmentPath, TRUE);

  

  Attachment.INIT;

  Attachment."File Name" := ZipFilePath;

  Attachment."Display Name" := 'Attachments.zip';

  

  EmailMgt.AddAttachmentFromFile(EmailMessage, Attachment."File Name", Attachment."Display Name");

  

  EmailMgt.Send(EmailMessage, Recipients);

  

  // Delete temporary folder and its contents

  FileManagement.DeleteDirectory(TempFolderPath, TRUE);

END;

```


In this example, after initializing the email message and setting the subject and body, we create a temporary folder using the `GetTempPath` and `CreateDirectory` methods of the `FileManagement` codeunit.


Next, we set the shared path of the files to be zipped in the `AttachmentPath` variable. We then define the path for the zip file to be created, `ZipFilePath`, which is a combination of the temporary folder path and the desired zip file name.


We use the `CreateZip` method of the `FileManagement` codeunit to create a zip file of the desired files from the shared path.


After that, we initialize the `Attachment` record, set the file name as `ZipFilePath`, and provide a display name for the zip file.


We use the `AddAttachmentFromFile` function of the `EmailMgt` codeunit to attach the zip file to the email message.


Finally, we send the email using the `Send` function of the `EmailMgt` codeunit. After sending the email, we delete the temporary folder and its contents using the `DeleteDirectory` method of the `FileManagement` codeunit.


Ensure that the shared path is accessible from the server running Business Central and that the necessary permissions are set for accessing the shared folder.

AL code for print qr code on report

 To print a QR code on a report using AL code in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, you can utilize the built-in barcode functionality in Business Central. Here's an example of how you can achieve this:


1. Define a new field in your report dataset to hold the data for the QR code. Let's call it "QRCodeData" and assume it's a text field.


2. Add the following code to the `OnAfterGetRecord` trigger of your report:


```AL

PROCEDURE OnAfterGetRecord@1()

VAR

  QRCodeData@1: Text[250];

  QRCode@2: Codeunit 412;

  QRCodeImage@3: Code[1024];

BEGIN

  QRCodeData := 'Sample QR Code Data'; // Replace with your actual data

  

  QRCode.Init;

  QRCode.CreateQRCode(QRCodeData, QRCodeImage);

  

  REPORT.CALCFIELDS(QRCodeData);

  REPORT.SETDATA(QRCodeImage);

  

  CLEAR(QRCode);

END;

```


In this example, we initialize the `QRCode` codeunit and call the `CreateQRCode` function, passing in the data you want to encode as the QR code. Replace `'Sample QR Code Data'` with the actual data you want to use.


The `CreateQRCode` function generates the QR code image and stores it in the `QRCodeImage` variable. We then use the `CALCFIELDS` function to calculate the value of the `QRCodeData` field in the report dataset, and the `SETDATA` function to set the value of the QR code image in the report dataset.


Make sure to adjust the code based on the structure and requirements of your report.


3. In the report layout, add an image control where you want the QR code to appear. Bind the source of the image control to the "QRCodeData" field in the report dataset.


4. Adjust the properties of the image control as needed, such as the size and position, to display the QR code correctly on the report.


5. When you run the report, the `OnAfterGetRecord` trigger will be executed for each record, generating a QR code image based on the data and displaying it on the report.


Remember to replace `'Sample QR Code Data'` with the actual data you want to encode in the QR code, and customize the report layout and image control properties to suit your requirements.

AL code for send email with multiple recipient with attachment from sharing path

 To send an email with multiple recipients and attachments from a shared path using AL code in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, you can modify the previous example by using the `FileManagement` codeunit to copy the attachments from the shared path to a temporary folder before attaching them to the email. Here's an example:


```AL

PROCEDURE SendEmailWithMultipleRecipientsAndAttachmentsFromSharedPath@1()

VAR

  EmailMgt@1: Codeunit 400;

  EmailMessage@2: Record 441;

  Recipients@3: Record 442;

  Attachment@4: Record 443;

  FileManagement@5: Codeunit 419;

  TempFolderPath@6: Text[250];

  AttachmentPath@7: Text[250];

BEGIN

  EmailMessage.INIT;

  EmailMessage.Subject := 'Test Email with Attachments';

  EmailMessage.Body := 'This is a test email sent to multiple recipients with attachments.';

  

  Recipients.INIT;

  Recipients."E-mail" := 'recipient1@example.com';

  Recipients.Insert;

  Recipients."E-mail" := 'recipient2@example.com';

  Recipients.Insert;

  Recipients."E-mail" := 'recipient3@example.com';

  

  // Shared path of the attachments

  AttachmentPath := '\\server\share\attachments\';

  

  // Create a temporary folder to store the attachments

  TempFolderPath := FileManagement.GetTempPath;

  FileManagement.CreateDirectory(TempFolderPath);

  

  // Attachments

  Attachment.INIT;

  Attachment."File Name" := 'attachment1.pdf';

  Attachment."Display Name" := 'Attachment 1';

  

  // Copy attachment from shared path to temporary folder

  FileManagement.CopyFile(AttachmentPath + Attachment."File Name", TempFolderPath + Attachment."File Name");

  

  EmailMgt.AddAttachmentFromFile(EmailMessage, TempFolderPath + Attachment."File Name", Attachment."Display Name");

  

  Attachment.INIT;

  Attachment."File Name" := 'attachment2.docx';

  Attachment."Display Name" := 'Attachment 2';

  

  // Copy attachment from shared path to temporary folder

  FileManagement.CopyFile(AttachmentPath + Attachment."File Name", TempFolderPath + Attachment."File Name");

  

  EmailMgt.AddAttachmentFromFile(EmailMessage, TempFolderPath + Attachment."File Name", Attachment."Display Name");

  

  EmailMgt.Send(EmailMessage, Recipients);

  

  // Delete temporary folder and its contents

  FileManagement.DeleteDirectory(TempFolderPath, TRUE);

END;

```


In this example, we use the `FileManagement` codeunit to perform file-related operations. First, we set the shared path of the attachments in the `AttachmentPath` variable. Then, we create a temporary folder using `GetTempPath` method and `CreateDirectory` method of the `FileManagement` codeunit.


Next, we initialize the `Attachment` record and set the file name and display name for each attachment. We copy each attachment from the shared path to the temporary folder using the `CopyFile` method of the `FileManagement` codeunit.


After that, we use the `AddAttachmentFromFile` function of the `EmailMgt` codeunit to attach the files from the temporary folder to the email message.


Finally, we send the email using the `Send` function of the `EmailMgt` codeunit. After sending the email, we delete the temporary folder and its contents using the `DeleteDirectory` method of the `FileManagement` codeunit.


Remember to replace the email addresses with the actual email addresses of the recipients you want to send the email to, and update the shared path and file names of the attachments accordingly.


Ensure that the shared path is accessible from


 the server running Business Central and that the necessary permissions are set for accessing the shared folder.

AL code for send email with multiple recipient with multiple attachment

 To send an email with multiple recipients and multiple attachments using AL code in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, you can modify the previous example by adding code to attach the files before sending the email. Here's an example:


```AL

PROCEDURE SendEmailWithMultipleRecipientsAndAttachments@1()

VAR

  EmailMgt@1: Codeunit 400;

  EmailMessage@2: Record 441;

  Recipients@3: Record 442;

  Attachment@4: Record 443;

BEGIN

  EmailMessage.INIT;

  EmailMessage.Subject := 'Test Email with Attachments';

  EmailMessage.Body := 'This is a test email sent to multiple recipients with attachments.';

  

  Recipients.INIT;

  Recipients."E-mail" := 'recipient1@example.com';

  Recipients.Insert;

  Recipients."E-mail" := 'recipient2@example.com';

  Recipients.Insert;

  Recipients."E-mail" := 'recipient3@example.com';

  

  // Attachments

  Attachment.INIT;

  Attachment."File Name" := 'C:\Path\to\attachment1.pdf';

  Attachment."Display Name" := 'Attachment 1';

  Attachment.Insert;

  Attachment."File Name" := 'C:\Path\to\attachment2.docx';

  Attachment."Display Name" := 'Attachment 2';

  

  EmailMgt.AddAttachment(EmailMessage, Attachment);

  

  EmailMgt.Send(EmailMessage, Recipients);

END;

```


In this example, after initializing the email message and setting the subject and body, we create an `Attachment` record and set the file name and display name for each attachment. You can repeat the process to add as many attachments as needed.


The `AddAttachment` function of the `EmailMgt` codeunit is used to associate the attachments with the email message.


Finally, we call the `Send` function of the `EmailMgt` codeunit, passing in the `EmailMessage` and `Recipients` records.


Remember to replace the email addresses with the actual email addresses of the recipients you want to send the email to, and update the file paths and display names for the attachments.


Make sure to have the necessary email settings configured in Business Central for sending emails, such as the SMTP server details.

  Recipients.Insert;

  Recipients."E-mail" := 'recipient3@example.com';

  

  EmailMgt.Send(EmailMessage, Recipients);

END;

```


In this example, we create a new email message by initializing the `EmailMessage` record and setting the subject and body of the email. Then, we initialize the `Recipients` record and insert multiple recipients by setting their email addresses. Finally, we call the `Send` function of the `EmailMgt` codeunit, passing in the `EmailMessage` and `Recipients` records.


Make sure to replace the email addresses with the actual email addresses of the recipients you want to send the email to.


Please note that you need to have the necessary email settings configured in Business Central for sending emails, such as the SMTP server details.

What Al programming ?

 AL (Advanced Language) is the programming language used in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, formerly known as Microsoft Dynamics NAV. AL is specifically designed for developing extensions and customizations within the Business Central platform.

AL is a statically typed, procedural programming language with object-oriented capabilities. It is similar to other programming languages like C/AL (C/SIDE) and C#. However, AL is more lightweight and focused on the needs of Business Central development.

Here are some key features and characteristics of AL programming:

1. Object-Oriented: AL supports object-oriented programming (OOP) concepts such as encapsulation, inheritance, and polymorphism. Developers can define classes, objects, properties, methods, and events to build modular and reusable code.

2. Data Types: AL has various data types, including text, integer, decimal, boolean, date, time, and more. Developers can declare variables, constants, and parameters using these data types.

3. Code Units and Functions: AL programs are organized into code units, which are containers for functions and procedures. Functions in AL can have input and output parameters and can return values.

4. Events: AL allows developers to subscribe to predefined events in the Business Central platform, such as "OnInsert," "OnModify," or "OnValidate." This enables custom code to execute when certain actions or conditions occur.

5. Integration with Business Central Objects: AL allows developers to define and modify various objects within Business Central, such as tables, pages, reports, and codeunits. This enables the customization and extension of the application's functionality.

6. IntelliSense and Visual Studio Code: Developers can write AL code using Visual Studio Code, a lightweight and extensible code editor. Visual Studio Code provides IntelliSense, a feature that suggests code completions and provides contextual information to help developers write code more efficiently.

7. Debugging and Testing: AL supports debugging capabilities, allowing developers to set breakpoints, step through code, inspect variables, and analyze program flow. Developers can also write unit tests to verify the correctness of their code.

8. Extensions: AL is primarily used for creating extensions for Business Central. Extensions are modular components that add custom functionality to the existing Business Central application without modifying the core system. AL allows developers to define tables, pages, codeunits, and other objects within an extension.

Microsoft provides development tools, documentation, and resources to assist developers in learning and working with AL. With AL programming, developers can extend Business Central's capabilities, create tailored solutions, integrate with external systems, and meet specific business requirements.
