After a short break I’m back (I was on vacation all March and try to reintegrate myself to daily life since then 😉 ) – first of all with a small post concerning the Wiki. It is tremendously helpful but there are teething troubles with the integrated search functionality.

AX7 – Services and Examples
You might have heard that AIF (Application Integration Framework) is no longer supported in the new Microsoft Dynamics AX. Though the SOAP-based custom services still are there and work as they did in AX 2012. And the services are provided JSON-based, too. Pretty much everything you need to know at the start is available in a great wiki article, the Microsoft Dynamics AX Services Technical Concepts Guide.
The one thing I’d really like to point out is that there are lots of good examples provided by Microsoft and made available on GitHub. You can use them to learn how things work and as a suitable starting point for your implementations. The root address of the examples is Microsoft / Dynamics-AX-Integration.
AX7 – The Latest from the Help Wiki
I hope you already know the new official Help Wiki that was released to the public back in December. There is so much information waiting for exploration there! But what if you want to know what’s new?
AX7 – The new official Help Wiki is publicly available!
During the Preview Technical Conference the according PM already announced that the Wiki for The New Microsoft Dynamics AX will be opened for the public when the application itself gets into public preview state, too. Until yesterday it was only accessible with a valid user and a password which is not the case anymore so it seems like it just happened!
That means YOU are able to access it already!
