Hi Jan,

No, we do not have any plans on the roadmap to bring it back. Could you explain a bit more about the use cases where you're missing it?

Hi Rasmus,
I have several websites, where I have a json file that I use to import in via data integration.

Lets say I get a JSON file externally that I need to import via data integration. 

This is not possible at this very moment.
 

Hi Jan,

I get that you want to use the json provider to import json files with, what I was curious about is why you have json files. We usually see people using XML for file imports and json when using OData.

Which sources are you getting json from? Is it possiple to juse XML instead?

BR Rasmus Sanggaard

Hi, I have json files, because some external people provide us with json files. And then we take that and use it. Much easier to deal with than XML.

I know via odata and Business central I can do it that way around.

However, If required, I am sure I might be able to get it via XML. I just think it is a shame the json provider is not there anymore. Not everything is handled via odata.
 

Hi Jan,

If you need a JSON provider I can provide you with one. It's not an official release but you can take almost any JSON.

Best Regards,
