When using the new Service Root URL instead of the ODATA 2.0 OrganizationData.svc, how can I restrict data load to certain columns?
Someting like
Lead?$select=Id,FirstName
works only for the OrganizationData.svc URL but not for the Service Root URL.

Hi Nithya Gopinath,
thanks for your answer. Of course I should have mentioned "Leads?$select=..." instead of "Lead?$select=..." as Lead?$ doesn't work at all.
However my problem still resists. The column selector doesn't select any columns and I get all columns of the leads table in my result set.
Is it a current bug within Excel 2016 and/or because we're accessing an CRM 2016 on prem system?
I think I've read about some others who had similar problems with the service root URL.
Hi,
Try using the URL below.
ServiceRootURL/leads?$select=leadid,firstname
It helps you to fetch only these two columns from the lead entity.
