Question 460
A mobile integration needs a read-only joined dataset combining inventory entries and item metadata. A targeted trial still reproduces the original gap after the team attempted this change: Use a PageType API query for a read-only joined or aggregated endpoint. Which repair directly addresses the remaining defect?
Explanation
Correct Answer
Replace the incorrect API page model with a query type API object and publish its versioned endpoint. This directly addresses the remaining defect for the requirement—A mobile integration needs a read-only joined dataset combining inventory entries and item metadata. It restores the mechanism described here: Business Central api queries expose read-only odata data and can join sources, unlike api pages intended for entity crud.

This correction is for the separate condition: An inventory extension performs repetitive database calls to create a simple grouped stock summary. It would not directly restore the intended behavior in this situation: A mobile integration needs a read-only joined dataset combining inventory entries and item metadata. Here, replace the incorrect api page model with a query type api object and publish its versioned endpoint, because Business Central api queries expose read-only odata data and can join sources, unlike api pages intended for entity crud.
This correction is for the separate condition: A partner exposes an aggregated API query and expects PATCH and POST operations to update source records. It would not directly restore the intended behavior in this situation: A mobile integration needs a read-only joined dataset combining inventory entries and item metadata. Here, replace the incorrect api page model with a query type api object and publish its versioned endpoint, because Business Central api queries expose read-only odata data and can join sources, unlike api pages intended for entity crud.
