Business value

In scenarios where third-party HTTP endpoints require cookie customization, you can now include this customization in Business Central apps and extensions.

Feature details

The HttpClient data type now officially supports cookies. With this support, AL developers can efficiently send and receive cookies when they send HTTP requests.

The update introduces a new Cookie data type along with several AL interfaces for handling cookies:

  • UseResponseCookies AL interface for the HttpClient data type that enables or disables caching for server cookies.
  • Cookie data type that represents a cookie object.
  • AL interfaces to get cookies from an HttpResponseMessage.
  • AL interfaces to get, add, and remove cookies from an HttpRequestMessage.

Developers can choose to automatically reuse response cookies, handle cookies manually, or use a mix of both approaches.
