Hi There,

I have certain complex queries to do validation on the combination of values in different multi select attributes. I will have to do those validations in the UI scripts. Wondering which will be more performance beneficial to do. Do you recommend oData/WebAPI to use with javascript?

Depend on that query complexity. but you recommend you to use WebAPI to use with javascript . It provide you more easy to consume service from JavaScript. Also for validation prospective as it is client side you can validate on event fired whenever your javascript run. For Performance Use only get those column from API which you need rather than all column that does make impact performance if you retrieve all column.

Best of Luck

Hi,

You can proceed with web API call if you think that the validation requirement is client side (preferred on change , onload ).We all generally do in Dynamics 365.and its supported. Try to retrieve minimum column and data so that it wound not effect performance.

Hello,

Everything depends on complexity of your checks but generally speaking you can do validations on the client side.
