Configuring Dynamics NAV Web Client for ACS
Important
ACS namespace creation has been restricted, and Access Control Service will be retired soon. For more information, see https://aka.ms/accesscontrolservice.
You configure the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web client for Access Control Service (ACS) by editing the configuration file. The configuration file is an .xml file that you can edit with a text editor, such as Notepad. By default, the configuration file is located in the C:\Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics NAV\110\Web Client\ folder.
Before you begin this procedure, you must perform the steps to configure your deployment for ACS. For more information, see Authenticating Users with Microsoft Azure Access Control Service.
