AL Base APP export all objects

txeriff · 2024-08-09

Hi All,
Is there any way to export all base APP objects into a text file? I'd like to continue using something like "where used" tool as Prism is paid and expensive.
I've found this link below but the command doesn't seem to exist.

thanks

If you use Visual Studio Code, you can download the official Base App source code from a GitHub repository:

https://github.com/StefanMaron/MSDyn365BC.Code.History

You can simply download the code (you don't need to clone the GitHub repository). This repository is kept by a freelancer BC Developer (Stefan Maron) and he keeps the source for all the BC versions since BC 14, I think.

After you download the source code, if you open the folder in Visual Studio, it takes a while, but VS Code does read all the symbols, and from there you can navigate to References...

The great thing about this, is this is not reading related References just based on the name, it really looks into the right object references.

Take a look at this: https://github.com/StefanMaron/MSDyn365BC.Code.History

All the countries/versions you need.

Thanks a lot, I didn't realise the code was shared.

Starting with BC 24, Microsoft is also publishing the source code monthly: https://github.com/microsoft/BCApps/releases

Hi Kowa, where can you find that? The link you provided is for BC Apps, and they describe it as:

This repository contains the source code for several Business Central applications, developed by Microsoft.

In this specific repository I could not find the source code to the BaseApp.

Currently it is only the System Application, since it was announced that the BaseApp needs some more refactoring to bring it up to par. https://github.com/microsoft/BCApps/archive/refs/tags/releases/24.4/StrictMode.zip . The BaseApp is still in a private repo: https://github.com/microsoft/BusinessCentralApps/ but you can request access to it: https://forms.office.com/pages/responsepage.aspx?id=v4j5cvGGr0GRqy180BHbR_Qj5hjzNeNOhBcvBoRIOltUOVBVTklZN1hBOTZJUU40OE5CUzNWNk1FQy4u
