Scheduling API: Problem with nested JSON structure

Report

Posted on by Al Iggs Microsoft Employee

I'm trying to utilize the Search Resource Availability API with Postman, documentation at cloudblogs.microsoft.com/.../ . I'm using this JSON:

{
   "Version": "1.0.0",
    "Requirement":
    {
    "FromDate":"2019-07-05T18:25:43.511Z",
   "ToDate":"2019-07-05T18:25:43.511Z",
   "Duration":60
},
    "Settings":
    {
},
    "ResourceSpecification":
    {
}
}

I only get an ODATA exception "Does not support untyped value in non-open type". There is a code sample at cloudblogs.microsoft.com/.../ that includes a special library and the function SdkExtensions.Mode.enableNestedEntities. Is there something similar that I need to do in Postman to allow it to provide nested JSON structures?

Don't have time to test what happens if you just pass this in the body

{

"FromDate":"2019-07-05T18:25:43.511Z",

"ToDate":"2019-07-05T18:25:43.511Z",

"Duration":60

}

That's whats confusing have FS V8.8x however missing that entity.

"message": "No HTTP resource was found that matches the request URI 'http://#####.crm5.dynamics.com/api/data/v9.0/msdyn_SearchResourceAvailability'."

I'm no expert however it's to hard to work out with the errors provided hopefully they will come back with an example!

Using :

{

"Version": "1.0.0",

"Requirement":

{

"@odata.type": "Microsoft.Dynamics.CRM.msdyn_resourcerequirement",

"msdyn_name": "Antony Clarke"

},

"Settings":

{

},

"ResourceSpecification":

{

}

}

I would just get that Settings is required so I assume that the odata.type is required as without it I would get your original exception.
