Hi all,
While testing Custom agents in Business Central (preview), I noticed they can only be triggered manually (debug/test).
It would be a big improvement to support external event-based triggers, such as:
- Incoming email
- File received (attachment, document drop)
- API/webhook call
Example:
Receive an email with an attachment → automatically trigger an agent to:
- Read the content
- Extract data
- Validate or create records in BC
Why this matters:
- Enables real automation use cases (AP invoices, EDI-like flows, approvals)
- Removes manual triggering
- Allows BC agents to act like true “entry points” for external processes
Right now, this is a major gap for turning agents into production-ready solutions. Curious if this is planned or if others have similar use cases.
