Set Up Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web Service to Use SSL
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is a cryptographic protocol that helps provide security and data integrity for data communications over a network. By encrypting your Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web service using SSL, you make your data and the network more secure and more reliable.
It is required to secure data transfer between the Sana web store and Microsoft Dynamics NAV.
The server which hosts the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web service must support TLS 1.2. TLS 1.2 is available on Windows Server 2008 R2 and higher.
Before configuring the Web service to use SSL, you must obtain a security certificate for the Web service domain. The certificate is issued by a certificate authority (CA). If this is a test environment, you can create and use a self-signed SSL certificate. The self-signed SSL certificate can be used only for testing purposes.
