hi,i trying  to get all accounts records by odata endpoint with list all contacts ,in order to do this,used below url in my post man:

https://crm-preview.***/main/api/data/v9.0/accounts/contact_customer_accounts?$select=firstname

and my response 

"@odata.context": "https://crm-preview****/main/api/data/v9.0/$metadata#accounts(name,contact_customer_accounts(firstname))",
    "value": [
        {
            "@odata.etag": "W/\"2922751\"",
            "name": "Hockey Federation",
            "accountid": "46ef24d1-a0c1-e911-b42a-005056a8646b",
            "contact_customer_accounts": [],
            "contact_customer_accounts@odata.nextLink": "https://crm-preview.***/main/api/data/v9.0/accounts(46ef24d1-a0c1-e911-b42a-005056a8646b)/contact_customer_accounts?$select=firstname"
        },
        {
            "@odata.etag": "W/\"2181982\"",
            "name": "Corporate Club",
            "accountid": "a0e0aef4-04c8-e911-b42a-005056a8646b",
            "contact_customer_accounts": [],
            "contact_customer_accounts@odata.nextLink": "https://crm-preview.***/main/api/data/v9.0/accounts(a0e0aef4-04c8-e911-b42a-005056a8646b)/contact_customer_accounts?$select=firstname"
        },

as you can see , contact_customer_accounts is empty array.

if i put ID in my accounts everything worked but i want to get all my accounts records with details of contacts.

    Hello Farbodkain,

     

    Thank you for writing to us. I see we are trying to get details of all contacts related to all accounts. I tried quickly checking through and the same may be possible as per the use of the below link

    Retrieve related entity records by expanding single-valued navigation properties.

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/developer/common-data-service/webapi/retrieve-related-entities-query

     

    Also sometimes we may want to construct the query to retrieve the records in dynamics CRM . This can be done by using the Advanced find and then getting the fetchXML . Once you get the fetch XML you can use the restbuilder to construct Odata queries .

     

    Please feel free to browse through the below links in the community article

    https://community.dynamics.com/crm/f/microsoft-dynamics-crm-forum/305214/odata-query

    Hello Farbodkain,

    There is no way to update Odata version number as such. It is expected that the Odata call should reflect the same version number of the CRM server. 

    I had a trial organization set up with Sample data and I was able to get the results for all accounts with related contacts . 

    below is the exact URL i used .. https://[orgurl]/api/data/v9.1/accounts?$select=name&$expand=primarycontactid($select=contactid,fullname).

    Can you try using the exact same URL and see if you are able to retrieve the results?

    Hello Farbodkain ,

    I am afraid I do not have a direct way of achieving this . I will leave this thread open for anyone to asisst. If I do find ways to achieve this I will update on it .
