Prepare a test environment

Create a Business Central trial or use an existing sandbox environment. The sample CRONUS company can provide representative data for initial testing.

Register the Microsoft Entra application

1. Sign in to the Microsoft Entra admin center.

2. Open Entra ID → App registrations and create a registration.

3. For an integration offered to organisations in different Microsoft Entra tenants, select the multitenant organisational-directory account type.

4. Record the Application (client) ID.

5. Under Certificates & secrets, create a client secret and store its value securely. The value is shown only when it is created.

6. Under API permissions, add the required Dynamics 365 Business Central application permissions. The existing Zwapgrid connection requires API.ReadWrite.All.

7. Grant administrator consent and confirm that the permission status is granted.

Microsoft documents the general process in Register an application in Microsoft Entra ID.

Configure Zwapgrid

1. In the Client Portal, open Systems → Business Central → Configure.

2. Create a System Setting with a name that identifies its environment and purpose.

3. Enter the Application (client) ID and client secret value.

4. Save, review, and publish the setting.

See System Settings for the shared workflow and lifecycle rules.

Test and move to production

1. Create a Development Consent using the published setting.

2. Complete the Onboarding Flow with the test tenant.

3. Confirm that tenant consent and Business Central permissions allow every required operation.

4. Test with a representative company and environment.

5. Before production, document who owns Entra application administration and client-secret rotation.

Creating an application registration does not by itself grant access to Business Central data. The required permissions and administrator consent must also be in place.
