Send file to SFTP with X++

By -

To send a file to SFTP you should try to use the Renci.SshNet library, which lets you create and use an SFTP client in C# code. You can use the SftpClient class to connect to an SFTP server and then use the UploadFile method to upload a file from a local path or a stream. 

However, this option requires you to create a C# class library project in Visual Studio, install the SSH.Net NuGet package, and deploy the project to Dynamics 365.


You can create a DLL from the C# class library and add it to D365 F&O.Step by step, code it as below:


Right-click on the C# solution and select Manage NuGet Package.








Find SSH.NET from the browser and install it





About the coding:


X++ code:


public void sendFileToSFTP(System.IO.Stream _sourceStream)

{

   try

   {

       str FileName = 'TestFile.csv';

       // 'Destination file path' -> /MainFolder/SubFolder

        str success = ExportSFTP.SFTPConnect::uploadSFTPFile("Host URL", "User Name", "Password", _sourceStream, "Destination File Path", "PortNum", FileName);

        if(success == "pass")

        {

            Info(strFmt('%1 File has been sent to SFTP', sftpFileName));

        }

        else

        {

            throw Error('Incorrect Host/Port/User Credential');

        }

   }

   catch

   {

        Info(infolog.text());

   }

 }


C# Code:



using System;

using System.IO;

using System.Net;

using System.Collections.Generic;

using Renci.SshNet;

using System.Text;


namespace ExportSFTP

{

    public class SFTPConnect

    {

        public static string uploadSFTPFile(string _host,

        string _username, string _password, System.IO.Stream _sourceFile,

        string _destinationPath, int _port, string _fileName,

        string _privateKeyFilePath = '')

        {

            string successStr = 'Fail';

            List<AuthenticationMethod> methods;

            if (_privateKeyFilePath != "")

            {

                var privateKeyFile = new PrivateKeyFile(_privateKeyFilePath, "The Password for key file"); 

                methods = new List<AuthenticationMethod>

                {

                    new PasswordAuthenticationMethod(_username, _password),

                    new PrivateKeyAuthenticationMethod(_username, _privateKeyFile)

                };

            }

            else

            {

                methods = new List<AuthenticationMethod>

                {

                    new PasswordAuthenticationMethod(_username, _password)

                };

            }

            try

           {

                var connectionInfo = new ConnectionInfo (_host, _port, _username, methods.ToArray());

                using (SftpClient sftpclient = new SftpClient(connectionInfo))

                {

                    sftpclient.Connect();

                    sftpclient.ChangeDirectory(_destinationPath.Trim());

                    sourceFile.Position = 0;

                    sftpclient.BufferSize = 8 * 1024;

                    sftpclient.UploadFile(_sourceFile, _fileName);

                }

                successStr = "pass";

            }

            catch (WebException e)

            {

                successStr = 'Fail';

            }

            return successStr;

        }

    }

}

How to create and run the Runbase batch class in D365

By -
Image
In this article, you will learn how to create and run a batch class that extends RunBaseBatch in D365. A batch class is a class that can be scheduled to run periodically or on demand on the Application Object Server (AOS) or a client. A batch class must extend the RunBaseBatch class, which provides the methods and properties that the system needs to run the class as a batch job. Steps to create a batch class: 1. Open the Application Object Tree (AOT) in a development workspace and create a new class under the Classes node. Give it a meaningful name, such as MyBatchClass. 2. In the class declaration, add extends RunBaseBatch to indicate that your class inherits from the RunBaseBatch class. 3. Override the run method of the RunBaseBatch class and write your business logic in it. This is the method that will be executed when the batch job runs. For example, you can write code to query and update some records in a table. 4. Override the pack and unpack methods of the RunBaseBatch class and...

Difference between InMemory and TempDB tables in D365 F&O

By -
Image
The difference between InMemory and TempDB tables in D365 F&O is: • InMemory tables are stored in the active memory of the tier where the process is running, either the client or the server tier. TempDB tables are stored in the SQL Server database as physical tables. • InMemory tables are instantiated when the first record is inserted, and are de-allocated when the record buffer goes out of scope or is set to null. TempDB tables are instantiated when the table object is created, and are dropped when the record buffer goes out of scope. • InMemory tables can be created by setting the TableType property of the table to InMemory, or by using the setTmp method on a record variable, or by setting the SourceTableTemporary property of a page. TempDB tables can be created by setting the TableType property of the table to TempDB. • InMemory tables can be joined with regular tables, but cannot have foreign keys, indexes, or methods. TempDB tables can be joined with regular tables, and can ha...

Conditional Statements in X++

1. Conditional Statements  Conditional statements in programming define conditions under which certain functions are performed. Conditional statements use logical expressions that are evaluated and return a value of either true or false. There are three primary conditional statements:  • If statement  • Switch statement  • Ternary operators All these statements are evaluated using operators.     1.1   If       The if statement is the simplest control statement. It checks whether a condition is true or false. If the condition is satisfied, all the code within the braces '{}' is executed. The syntax for an if statement is as follows:      The following is an example of an if statement. If the variable a is greater than 10, the value of a will be printed on the screen.       The following is an example of an if statement using multiple expressions to evaluate the condition.     ...
