SDK.REST.retrieveMultipleRecords $expand not sure what I am doing wrong

Posted on by rthompson 1,532

Hi

I am trying to use the "$expand" to retrieve two columns from a different entity.  Can't see what I am doing wrong.

The primary entity is "new_casedatasheettemplatemodel".

The secondary entity is "new_casemodel".

Here's my error message:

8508.ErrorMessage.JPG

Here's my code:

function buildCaseModelSDK() {

    var caseId = $("#form_caseid").val();
    var caseDataSheetTemplateId = $("#form_casedatasheettemplateid").val();

    if (caseId != null && caseDataSheetTemplateId != null) {
        var iselect = "?$select=new_CaseId";

        iselect += "&$expand=new_new_casemodel_new_casedatasheettemplatemodel_CaseModelId($select=new_ModelId,new_SampleGroupId)"

        var ifilter = "&$filter=(new_CaseId/Id eq guid'" + caseId.replace(/{/g, "").replace(/}/g, "") + "'";
        ifilter += " and new_CaseDataSheetTemplateId/Id eq guid'" + caseDataSheetTemplateId.replace(/{/g, "").replace(/}/g, "") + "'";
        ifilter += ")";

        var iorderby = "&$orderby=new_name";

        var options = iselect + ifilter + iorderby;

        SDK.REST.retrieveMultipleRecords("new_casedatasheettemplatemodel", options, buildCaseModelCallBack, function (error) { alert(error.message + "[" + options); }, buildCaseModelCompleted);
    }
}

///---------------
function buildCaseModelCallBack(caseModels) {
    var models = caseModels;
}
function buildCaseModelCompleted() {

}

    Great. I will suggest you to use "CRM REST Builder" to verify your query.

    For your question about selecting certain fields ( If I am assuming correctly they are new_ModelId, new_SampleGroupId) from the second entity, try below code

    var iselect = "?$select=new_CaseId";

    iselect += ",new_new_casemodel_new_casedatasheettemplatemodel_CaseModelId/new_ModelId,new_new_casemodel_new_casedatasheettemplatemodel_CaseModelId/new_SampleGroupId";

    iselect += "&$expand=new_new_casemodel_new_casedatasheettemplatemodel_CaseModelId";

    var ifilter = "&$filter=(new_CaseId/Id eq guid'" + caseId.replace(/{/g, "").replace(/}/g, "") + "'";

    ifilter += " and new_CaseDataSheetTemplateId/Id eq guid'" + caseDataSheetTemplateId.replace(/{/g, "").replace(/}/g, "") + "'";

    ifilter += ")";

    var iorderby = "&$orderby=new_name";

    var options = iselect + ifilter + iorderby;

    SDK.REST.retrieveMultipleRecords("new_casedatasheettemplatemodel", options, buildCaseModelCallBack, function (error) { alert(error.message + "[" + options); }, buildCaseModelCompleted);

    // var new_ModelIdValue = results[i].new_new_casemodel_new_casedatasheettemplatemodel_CaseModelId.new_ModelId;

    // var new_SampleGroupIdValue = results[i].new_new_casemodel_new_casedatasheettemplatemodel_CaseModelId.new_SampleGroupId;

    Hi,

    It's working now. I removed the extra $select.

    How do I only select certain fields from the second entity.

    iselect += "&$expand=new_new_casemodel_new_casedatasheettemplatemodel_CaseModelId($select=new_ModelId,new_SampleGroupId)"

    var iselect = "?$select=new_CaseId";
iselect += ",new_new_casemodel_new_casedatasheettemplatemodel_CaseModelId";
iselect += "&$expand=new_new_casemodel_new_casedatasheettemplatemodel_CaseModelId";
 
var ifilter = "&$filter=(new_CaseId/Id eq guid'" + caseId.replace(/{/g, "").replace(/}/g, "") + "'";
ifilter += " and new_CaseDataSheetTemplateId/Id eq guid'" + caseDataSheetTemplateId.replace(/{/g, "").replace(/}/g, "") + "'";
ifilter += ")";
 
var iorderby = "&$orderby=new_name";
 
var options = iselect + ifilter + iorderby;
 
SDK.REST.retrieveMultipleRecords("new_casedatasheettemplatemodel", options, buildCaseModelCallBack, function (error) { alert(error.message + "[" + options); }, buildCaseModelCompleted);

    Hi, try to add missing semicolon in line and check.  iselect += "&$expand=new_new_casemodel_new_casedatasheettemplatemodel_CaseModelId($select=new_ModelId,new_SampleGroupId)";

    Thanks,

    Anand
