Can you explain your scenario, please?

By the way, office integration is uses OData services, so these aren't really two distinct cases.

Hi Maram,

There is no way to get the source of the OData call. The Excel add-in and other calls, like via Power Automate, are public calls where the isEntityInDataManagement method will return false.
