Version 29.0
of Business Central is now generally available. If you create a new online
environment today, 29.0 is what you get by default.
Spinning
up a 29.0 sandbox
The quickest
way to see this for yourself is the admin center. Go to Environments, choose
New, and look at the Version dropdown. 29.0 is now sitting there as a
selectable option rather than a preview build.
If you have been testing on a preview sandbox, read this
The preview
sandboxes you created in September are on borrowed time. Microsoft deletes them
automatically about 30 days after GA, which puts the cutoff somewhere in early
November 2026. You also cannot update a preview environment to a different
version, so there is no path from a preview sandbox to a supported one.
If you have
test data, custom extensions, or configuration sitting in one of those, move it
now. Export what you need and recreate the environment on the GA build of 29.0.
