in NAV/Navision Classic Client
Hi,
I want to know what is the best way to access the NAV 5.0 database? What is the best approach as we do not have built in webservice. Do we have to direct query the SQL database or what?

I have reviewed this link (https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/nav/2008/04/15/using-web-services-to-access-microsoft-dynamics-nav-5-0/) but the downloadable file is not working anymore :(

Looking forward
Best Regards

    I'm not familiar with NAV 5. But I would just write an asp.net webapi as a middleware between the NAV database and your other applications. Maybe there are some more old-school ways of doing in NAV itself that would follow NAV's internal business logic.
