AL code - use file saved within AL project folder in the code

PurpleHaze · 2021-11-03

Hey y`all,

Might be a dull question (Google didn`t help either), is it possible to use/reference a file (let`s say RapidStart package) which is stored within an AL project in a separate folder, and import it from code?

Thanks a lot in advance.

So you want to execute the entire Rapid Start process via code?

Just to import it basically, for example OnInstall trigger I would like to import a RapidStart package (which would be included/saved in my extension package) - with relative path or something like that.

Please don`t get cofused with RapidStart, it can be any type of file.
Let`s say I have a .txt file included in my AL project folder and I want to ship it together with my extension (.app) and reach it via code OnInstallAppPerCompany with "relative path" pointing to the file or something like that...

Would something like that be actually possible?

I have had used these triggers but never utilized these for any processes wherein we have file dependency.

What is the error you getting right now?

Well, there is no error

since I`m not sure how to point to/consume the file (included in my AL project) from code...
