Hi,

You can use EntityCollection method to retrieve multiple records of child entity And pass the parameter in method and use fetch xml there you can pass the value parameter like this

"'+your parameter name+'".

Example

<filter type="and">'+

'<condition attribute="childid" operator="eq" value=""+your parameter name+"" /> '+

From this collection you can able to get the id's of child records.

Hope it helps:)

Thanks

Hi Varun,

You can get the Guid of created child record like this:

Guid childRecordId = serviceObj.Create(childentityObj);

serviceObj.Retrieve("ChildEntitySchemaName", childRecordId, new ColumnSet("field1","field2","fieldn"));

If you find the answer as useful, please mark it as verified

Hi Varun ,

If you have parent child relationship then you should have referential I'd in the child account right . You can refer here how to write query using web api.

Hi Varun,

I am sorry I could not understand your questions properly.

As per my assumption you need to retrieve the related record or may be parent record.

You can retrieve many way using fetchxml , using web api , using query expression....

Here is some links which you can refer.
