Get-D365Module -InDependencyOrder

Posted by Martin Dráb on 30 November 2022, 11:49 am

Despite the fact that I built a Powershell module for maintenance tasks of AX 2009 and AX 2012 environments, I’m not much involved in d365fo.tools module. The credit goes to other people, especially Mötz Jensen. Nevertheless I’ve recently added a small feature to Get-D365Module that you might be interested in.

Getting service operations from metadata (D365FO)

Posted by Martin Dráb on 31 May 2019, 7:20 am

When working with metadata in Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operation, the usual approach is using the MetadataSupport class. It’s a simplified interface to actual metadata classes, which is easy to use, but it doesn’t expose everything. For instance, it doesn’t return operations of custom services. Nothing is lost, because you still can get all …
