Overview - Python Connector for Dynamics 365 Business Central

Overview

Python Connector for Dynamics 365 Business Central is a connectivity solution for accessing Dynamics 365 Business Central from Python applications to read and update data. It fully implements the Python DB API 2.0 specification. The connector is distributed as a wheel package for Windows and Windows Server.

Standard SQL syntax

The connector fully supports the ANSI SQL standard and lets you execute SQL statements against your Dynamics 365 Business Central data just like you would normally work with relational databases. Simple queries are directly converted to Dynamics 365 BC API calls and executed on the Dynamics 365 BC side.

Complex queries are transformed into simpler queries, which are then converted to Dynamics 365 BC API calls. The embedded SQL engine then processes the results in the local cache and applies advanced SQL features from the original complex query.
