In this chapter, we gave an overview of how to use the OData stack (and RESTful APIs, in particular) for integration with Dynamics 365 Business Central. We saw how to use standard APIs, create custom APIs, create applications that use Dynamics 365 Business Central APIs, and use advanced concepts such as webhooks and Graph APIs. Then, we gave an overview of automation APIs.

At the end of this chapter, you were given a complete overview of how to expose Dynamics 365 Business Central business logic and entities and how to handle integrations with external applications by using REST HTTP calls. APIs are the future of Dynamics 365 Business Central integrations, and here, you have learned how to use them on your applications and extensions.

In the next chapter, we'll see how to use Azure Functions and other serverless services with Dynamics 365 Business Central extensions.
