Connect Lasernet Server and Lasernet Connector

This section will guide you through connecting the Lasernet server with the Lasernet Connector for Dynamics 365 Business Central. By this time, you should have installed the Lasernet Connector and the Lasernet server. You should also have entered the information within Lasernet Setup in Business Central, which is needed here.

1. Log in to the server where Lasernet is installed and open Lasernet Developer. Log in with your user credentials.

2. Click Import configuration.

3. Choose the Lasernet configuration that you received in the software package and click Open.

4. Select Servers from the Tools menu.

5. Double-click the default server, and from the Instance drop-down list, select the instance that matches your server.

6. If you are using File system to communicate, skip this and go to step 12. Select the JobInfos tab and correct the two JobInfos so they match the Azure Storage settings that you entered within Business Central and in Lasernet Setup.

7. When done, click Ok to close the form.

8. Select Modules from the Tools menu, and double-click the Azure Service Bus input module.

9. Enter the Azure Service Bus Connection String and select the correct queue from the Entity Path drop-down list. Then, click Test Connection in the lower left corner.

10. When done, click Ok.

11. Select the Commands tab from the left-hand side menu and double-click Azureblob.

12. Copy the account key from the Azure Storage connection string, paste it into the Key field, and click Ok. You cannot test the connection because JobInfos are in use.

13. If you are using a File system, select Modules from the left menu and double-click the File Input module.

14. Select the Setup tab and change the Directory path. Click Ok to close the form.

15. Do the same on the File Output module. Both directory paths should match the input and output folder that you have entered with Business Central and Lasernet Setup.

16. Click Ok to close the form.

17. Click Commit from the top menu and give the commit a description. Then, click OK.
