Installation

Download the latest build for your platform from the [Releases](../../releases).

Requirements

A Business Central tenant running the Pinetworks Base Application with the PINLayoutPreview web service published.
A Microsoft Entra app registration. One multi-tenant registration covers all your clients. Give it the ReportLayout.ReadWrite.All permission. Its client ID and secret go into the app's shared credentials during first run.
An ACP agent (optional). Claude Code, GitHub Copilot CLI, Gemini CLI, Codex or opencode, if you want to hand layouts off to an agent. The app uses whichever CLI you already have installed and signed in, so there are no API keys to manage.

First run

The secret is stored in your OS keychain. It isn't saved to the database or written to logs, and the field won't display it back to you once it's set.

2. A client and a connection

Under **Settings**, add a client, then add a connection to that client's card.

A client is a customer organisation. A connection is one Business Central target for that customer: tenant ID, environment and company.

The **company** has to match Business Central exactly, including case, spacing and punctuation.

Press **Test connection**. It reports which part of the setup, if any, is still missing:

OK	Ready to go.
Not consented	Grant admin consent to the app registration in that tenant.
Not registered in BC	Add the client ID on BC's Microsoft Entra Applications page, set it to Enabled, and assign permission sets.
No permissions	The registration exists but has n
