Custom data entity doesn't export data although it exists in the table

Posted on by Amitsb1980

Hi all,

I created a custom data entity for datasource KanbanRule using the entity creation wizard and attached additional datasources as required by the wizard.

Solution build, database synchronisation and entity list refresh was done without any errors.

However, although KanbanRule table has plenty of data, I am not able to export as per the screenshot below when the entity export is executed from data management workspace.

Why is this happening? Thank you for any help in this regard.

Thank you,

Amit

RE: Custom data entity doesn't export data although it exists in the table

You should review the query. For example, it's possible that one of your joins filter out all data and therefore the query doesn't return any records.

I would go to SQL Server Management Studio, find the view (a data entity has a view in DB) and select data from it. If it doesn't return the expected records, I would review the SQL query used by the view and try to adjust to see how it should be changed. When I understand the problem and the change needed, I would go back to Visual Studio and modify the entity.

Adding to Martin, you can also fire an SQL query by select * from EntityName. So you can see what data it is returning. Then tweak the entity accordingly.
