Integrating Business Central with infrastructure services

  • Articolo

Business Central integrates to a few fundamental infrastructure services for operations such as authentication, authorization, auditing, telemetry, and printing.

Here are some supported integrations between Business Central and fundamental services:

  • Microsoft Entra
  • Azure security service tags
  • Azure Application Insights
  • Microsoft 365 Universal Print

Manage authentication and authorization with Microsoft Entra

Microsoft Entra is used for authenticating users for Business Central.

You can use Microsoft Entra to do the following tasks:

Restrict network access from/to Business Central with Azure security service tags

An Azure service tag represents a group of IP addresses from/to which traffic from a specific service may come, which allows you to set up firewalls for a specific service to allow only traffic from certain services. The Dynamics365BusinessCentral service tag enables administrators to restrict access from/to Business Central using firewall and network security group rules.

For more information, see Use Azure security service tags to restrict network access from/to Business Central.

Get usage, error, and performance telemetry with Azure Application Insights

You can integrate Business Central with Azure Application Insights by enabling the telemetry feature. With telemetry, system owners can look at usage and lifecycle operations of environments/apps, diagnose problems, and analyze operations that affect performance.

Print to local printers with Microsoft 365 Universal Print

Universal Print is a Microsoft 365 subscription-based service that runs entirely on Microsoft Azure. It gives you centralized printer management for local printers through the Universal Print portal. Business Central makes printers set up in Universal Print available to client users through the Universal Print Integration extension.
