Web Services(ODataV4) filter on BC

Posted on by Olister Rumao 3,967
Hi All,
I've created custom Sales Header Page and Sales Line Page to extract data using Web Services in ODataV4.
I want to apply filters I tried applying filters as follows
1. api.businesscentral.dynamics.com/.../Company('CRONUS%20USA%2C%20Inc.')/DWSalesOrderLinesAPI?$count=true&$filter=Shipment_Date%20gt%202018-01-01T23:59:59.999Z
giving error: 'Unable to convert value to Date'
2. api.businesscentral.dynamics.com/.../Company('CRONUS%20USA%2C%20Inc.')/DWSalesOrderLinesAPI?$count=true&$filter=Shipment_Date%20eq%20'2018-09-19'
giving error: A binary operator with incompatible types was detected. Found operand types 'Edm.Date' and 'Edm.String' for operator kind 'Equal'
I've refered here:
I'm wondering if these filters are available for Web Services or API in BC?
And also what exactly is the difference between API and WebService(ODataV4) as I've found few differences like Parent-Child relationship and complex data types.
Kindy advise!

    The datetime filter is wrong.

    You should write something like:

    Shipment_Date ge datetime'2018-01-01T00:00:00Z'

    Hi Stefano,

    I could get the filtered results with query as below

    https://api.businesscentral.dynamics.com/v1.0/:tenant/ODataV4/Company('CRONUS%20USA%2C%20Inc.')/DWSalesOrderLinesAPI?$count=true&$filter=Shipment_Date%20ge%202018-05-01 

    Also, I found that the filter is specific to the data type of the field

    For example:

    Date = 2018-09-09

    DateTime = 2018-09-19T20:05:52.667Z

    Integer = 1

    Decimal = 1.00

    Text = ‘Text’

    Code = ‘PS’

    Options = ‘Order’/’Quote’

    Boolean = true/false

    I'll try the query as you provided and give the feedback thanks.
