WEB API - $select=(all except one?)

Hello,

I'm reading about retrieving an entity via the web api and I understand that you can retrieve a record with all fields, or via $select only some fields.

Is there a built-in method to retrieve all fields 'except' certain fields?

e.g. GET [Organization URI]/api/data/v9.0/accounts(00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000001)?$except=name,revenue or maybe $select=-name

If not, I can do this programmatically, but it would be ideal if this existed

I have the same question (0)

Hello,

As far as I know, there is no such way. You will have to define all of the fields you want to retrieve.
