    Hi,

    Thank you for your query.

    Filters on Single-valued navigation properties (Lookups) are applied using IDs (as far as I know).

    Furthermore, it is not a good idea to search using name (as it can return duplicates).

    I would recommend you to reverse your query, that means, queary on cyno_account and then expand on Auditset.

    You can use any or all operator to expand on child entities using filters:

    Hi Ashishjoshi98,

    you could do something like

    $filter=cyno_account/cyno_name eq 'CONTOSO'
