Configuration

To use this functionality, we simply need to create an entry in the launch.json file.

Also, I tried using it for a Production Environment and as expected it didn’t work. Snapshot debugging it is then!

Conclusion

Thus, we saw how we can attach a debugger to an active user session in Business Central.

Happy Coding!
