Related virtual entities, how to use columns of a virtual entity inside view of other related virtual entity

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hi all,

I have 2 virtual entities connected together by a lookup field in one virtual entity to the other one.

Now I want to add fields from the related virtual entity inside a view of the other virtual entity as it's possible with standard and custom entities like adding the name of the account to a contact view over the relationship "parentaccount".

With the designer of the view it's possible to do that.

But, no data are shown, the columns of the related virtual entity are empty.

So, my question is, do I have to do something special, may be inside the custom data provider to get the data of the related virtual entities?

Thanks
