If you will go API way be aware of a few pitfalls.

  1. It is development and thus it is expensive.
  2. You may need access to  a  Dynamics NAV server back-end. It may be hard to get due to organization's policies.
  3.  If you will need to change the integration - it will be development again.

With Rapise you can record the steps, parameterize them and get a data-driven automation script. All you need is user-level access to Dynamics NAV, there will be no need to deploy anything at the server-side.

Below we present a video that demonstrates how fast and reliable interaction between Rapise and Dynamics NAV can be.
