If you will go API way be aware of a few pitfalls.
- It is development and thus it is expensive.
- You may need access to a Dynamics AX server back-end. It may be hard to get due to organization's policies.
- 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 AX, 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 AX can be.
