It's not that often that I create posts about specific GitHub PRs anymore, but today I'll make an exception! After 19 (!!!) months in the making, the "External File Storage" #MSDyn365BC module was just merged 🥳 Demo will follow!

Will Sharepoint online work for locally hosted or only cloud?

Will also Work on Prem, but SSO needs to be configured.

Awesome!! I would say that we have moved most of our client base to the cloud (200+ customers). But this is really one of the areas where we find it the most challenging, File Handling. Gets really expensive real quick having the files stored in the Business Central database so that’s not an option.

So we are really pointing our customers to different solutions (SharePoint and Azure Blob Storage) for managing their files. And as pointed out on GitHub, custom and solved differently each time.

Would be great if you could provide some more detailed examples on how you envision this to be used.

Are you looking at native support for directly storing document attachments somewhere else(Azure Blob Storage). Or is it up to partners to use this module to build upon?

Sorry for the longer thread…😅

Three connectors are planned. Azure Blob Storage, Azure File Share and Sharepoint. Review Starts in January. I implemented every api from the system application that supports file Handling.
