# Business Central 2027 release wave 1: Preparing for OData Endpoint Removal

[Read the post](https://aardvarklabs.blog/2025/09/02/business-central-2027-release-wave-1-preparing-for-odata-endpoint-removal/) · Aardvark Labs (Marcel Chabot) · 2025-09-02 · 858 words · tier community · reviewed (checked by Opus)

> Business Central version 30 will remove pages managed by Microsoft extensions from OData Web Service endpoints. Organizations using these endpoints must migrate to Business Central API 2.0, create custom 2.0 APIs, or copy pages to custom objects to maintain system integrations like Excel and Power BI.

## Key points

- Pages exposed as OData web services will no longer be available from Microsoft-managed pages in version 30, breaking existing integrations
- Three migration paths exist: switch to API 2.0 endpoints, create custom Page or Query APIs, or copy Microsoft pages to custom objects
- Custom page copies can be exposed as OData endpoints by changing the object ID in Web Services configuration, avoiding dependency on Microsoft page updates
- Building custom APIs using Page API or Query API methods provides the most modern and feature-complete solution for long-term sustainability

## Quotes

- "Microsoft does not want their Pages beholden to an API, User Interface updates should not be a breaking change to an API." (Explains the core reason for removing page-based OData endpoints and the architectural shift Microsoft is making)
