Is it possible to retrieve an entity record in a portal, I'm using a web template with Liquid language and i'm am able to obtain a record by its GUID, but I'm curious if it's possible to reference the record by its alternate key.

    Hi,
     
    According to the official documentation, you can use alternate keys with the Dataverse Web API or .NET SDK.
    Please refer to the following documentation
    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-apps/developer/data-platform/use-alternate-key-reference-record?tabs=webapi
     
    For Liquid language web templates, according to the official documentation, you can use ID, Name, Key to fetch Entity List, or use Fetch xml tag to specify a specific query.
    The link to the official documentation is as follows.
    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-pages/configure/liquid/template-tags#fetchxml
    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-pages/configure/liquid/dataverse-liquid-tags#entitylist
     
     
     
     
    I hope my answer is helpful to you! If you have any other questions, please feel free to contact me.
     
    Best Regards,
    Rudy Zhang
