Hi,

I have created ODataLibrary and its generated .cs with all the end points from my given metadataUriString ;

and generated Anthentication utility.dll added these dll files to console application to consume data from d365fo..

when i add the command "Using ODataUtility.Microsoft.Dynamics.DataEntities " in my program.cs

it gives me following error "The type or namespace name "Odatautility" could not be found (are you missing using directive or assembly reference)

Please help me to resolve this issue

C# is case sensitive, therefore Odatautility isn't the same thing as ODataUtility. Also, do you have a reference to any assembly containing such a namespace?

By the way, it's interesting that you added binaries of the authentication utility and not code. If you're talking about the utility from Microsoft sample code, you need to change its code to specify application ID and things like that.

Hi Martin,

I have created library for authentication utility with Client configuration and oauthHelper files. In Clientconfiguration i have given every details regrading the application registered in azure portal.(App ID, Secret key, D365Fo instance) on building this library dll file is generated.

Similarly i created ODataLibrary added metadatadocumentURI string and added TempPathfile

and i created console application where i refered above 2 dll and when i add the package Using ODataUtility.Microsoft.Dynamics.DataEntities

its throwing error saying The type or namespace name "OdataUtility" could not be found (are you missing using directive or assembly reference)

Hi Kasthu,

Have you opened a solution that contains all referenced projects?

This reference comes from the ODataUtility project, which is also part of the repository and the main solution.

All right, you make your life much more complicated by referring the binaries rather than to projects, but if you prefer...

If I assume that the problem with incorrect casing it caused by the fact that you failed to quote the error message precisely, there is still the question whether either of your libraries contains ODataUtility.Microsoft.Dynamics.DataEntities. If not, then it makes sense that it can't be found. Either you refer to something that you don't really need, and you should remove the using statement, or you're missing the object you want to use.
