    Yes, it needs an visual studio access and you need to add a logic to get fields data type informations.

    Thanks,

    Thank, its loading the fields. I need to check the field attributes (data type, field length) and the enum values. I think, we can get from only Visual studio ?

    I found one more way - Navigate to system administration >> Data management >> click on "Data entities" tiles.  Select any one of the entities and click on Target fields >> Click on the office icon on top right corner >> Select "Target XML" (Open in excel) - It will download the excel file >> You can sign into excel and it will load all the entities with entity fields. There will be thousands of records, So it will take time to retrieve all of those. Later you can save the excel as a field as you want.

    Thanks,

    Girish S.

    No you need to have visual studio to get the details of data entities.

    You can see the list of entities under system administration >> Data management >> click on Data entities tiles - You can see the all the entities and related fields using target fields button on the action pane.

    Thanks

    Hi Sumyo,

    You can navigate to Visual studio >> Extensions. >> Dynamics 365 >> Addins >> Data Entity Report.

    It will download the CSV excel file format with all the entity details.

    Thanks,

    Girish S.
