#msdyn365bc 2023 Release Wave 2 - Open Visual Studio Code from web client to investigate or troubleshoot extensions.
HI Readers,
As Business Central 2023 Release Wave 2 Preview is announced.
In this series we will discuss all features in detail.
In this article we will discuss regarding - Open Visual Studio Code from web client to investigate or troubleshoot extensions.
With this feature -
- As a developer or consultant, you can open a new Visual Studio Code session from within the web client for a specific customer production or sandbox environment.
- Two different contexts will be supported: Open a page from within the Page Inspector or troubleshoot the current session from within the Help and Support page.
- If Visual Studio Code is already open, the last active session will be used; otherwise, a new Visual Studio Code will open. If the AL Language extension isn't installed, the user will be asked to install it, and the process ends.
- The user will be asked if they want to investigate, or debug sandbox or production.
- A new project will be created, and a matching launch configuration will be created, depending on production or sandbox environment.
- If the user chooses to investigate, symbols for the invoked page will be added and the AL Explorer will open to easily allow browsing objects.
- If the user chooses to debug, Visual Studio Code will attach to the web client process, which it was invoked from and await breaking on error.
- In both cases, access to the source code will be gated by the resource exposure profile settings for each extension.
