Please, read this page keeping its age in your mind.In this article, I would like to share my own experience of how I use different service providers to make sure that my files, music, passwords, emails are available on all my devices. Be it macOS, Windows, Android or iOS. The services detailed below reflect my personal preferences. It is possible that there are better providers that are cheaper or that offer more functionality. If you know of such, help readers by writing in to tell us what works for you. I personally do not like Google’s services. I will not recommend Google Drive, Authenticator and other services in this article, but I am sure that their solutions can solve the architecture I consider to be proven. What I’d like to show you is how I manage in my daily life to make sure that all my data is in sync and accessible on all my devices, almost without exception. File Storage and e-mail account. Notes, Calendar, Contacts. I personally chose Microsoft’s OneDrive technology as my storage and email provider. They give you 5GB of cloud storage space in their free plan, and an extra 15 GB for emails.

D365 BC OData: Filtering for boolean fields in the correct way

This content has 3 years. Some of the information in this post may be out of date or no longer work. Please, read this page keeping its age in your mind.Somehow, Microsoft’s documentation for using OData service in Business Central does not give enough information for the proper usage of the OData’s filter for boolean fields. That’s when Postman becomes your best friend, and you are starting arguing about how to compare equality to a boolean field using filters. Oh, have you looked up stackoverflow already? Some say, that you will need to make a new column in the page, and put the boolean value as a string, to be able to use it in filter with string compare!! 😀 Others say, you will need to send the equality compare statement with binary marks, 1 for true and 0 for false.
