Dear team,

As I need to implement action method for ODATA. As I saw, the action method is NOT supported in data entity extension. It's directly worked with entity.

I worked for CustCustomerV3Entity.

Kindly advise me how will I execute the action method for CustCustomerV3Entity. I mean, when the action method executed it should work for the entity CustCustomerV3Entity.

Please share me the steps to follow.

Kindly advise please.

Thanks in advance

Hi,

You have option to create a duplicate entity and proceed with the OData action on your own entity

Hi,

As you concluded, odata actions don't work for data entity extensions. It only works for newly created entities.

So yes you will need to create a new entity in this case.

Thanks Layan and Sohaib for the response.

Sorry, I clicked "Was this reply useful" for all replies earlier.

I will do as suggested.

Now comes to o the original answers

So, either I can create a custom entity or Duplicate entity to work on action method for ODATA entity.

Am I correct?

Hi,

Yes you are correct, it's either you create one from scratch or duplicate the current one.

Make sure "public entity name" and "public collection name" properties on the new entity are unique and different from original one.

If your question is answered, then please verify the answers that helped.

Also please, can you check this question and verify the answers that helped?
