BC, your local Docker and missing Functions due to missing SSL

Aktualisiert: 4. Jan. 2022

Have you ever tried to take a look at the phone / tablet client by using your browser?


Let's start from scratch and start your local environment. In this case I setup a new docker container without SSL:


  1. Install Docker [if necessary]

  2. Enable Hyper V in Bios/Windows [if necessary]

  3. Run Windows Powershell as Administrator

  4. Install BCContainerhelper [Install-Module BCContainerHelper]

  5. Run New-BCContainerWizard and enter the required parameters [New-BCContainerWizard]

  6. After some while your container is ready

Open your browser and your local bc container address, in my case:

http://bc18-ci/BC/tablet

Or even a specific table or page:

http://bc18-ci/BC/tablet?page=5050

More details about Opening the Business Central Tablet or Phone Client from a Browser: here

Select a specific contact and open the card:


To see the phone client use this:

http://bc18-ci/BC/phone?page=5050


On that beautiful Factbox "Contact Picture" we miss one function called "Take" (Take a Picture)


Without SSL:

With SSL:





Jump into your Edge or Chrome Browser and look for some experimental flags like:


edge://flags/#unsafely-treat-insecure-origin-as-secure


Voilá


Restart your Browser and try to take your photo by using your local device/webcam:


"Use" it:


And you are fine:



Special Thanks to Nexa for all the useful hints!
