Getting problem in building a query

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Community Member

Hi,

I want to build a query in dynamic 365 CRM using a web API which gives a result for the attributes those are creatable only.

Currently, I am using a query which expands attributes for the particular entity and gives all attributes in response.

The query is:: EntityDefinitions(LogicalName='account')$select=LogicalName&$expand=Attributes($select=AttributeType,LogicalName,IsValidForCreate).

please help me to find the out the query which gives attributes those value for IsValidForCreate property is 'true'

Thanks,

Ankit

    You can query for attributes on IsValidForCreate using this query.

    /EntityDefinitions(LogicalName='account')?$select=LogicalName&$expand=Attributes($select=AttributeType,LogicalName,IsValidForCreate;$filter=IsValidForCreate eq true)

    You can find more information on querying metadata here.
