Posted on by Community Member

Hi Dynamics CRM team,

We are working on developing an integration for which I am doing data analysis.

I could not find the consolidated list for Objects or Entities for Dynamics CRM Online and On-premise 2016.

Is it mentioned in any documentation? If so, could you please provide me the link.

The consolidated list of all the objects for the latest version will help us a great deal in our planning.

Awaiting response.

Thank You.

Best Regards,

Rajinder Singh

Hi Rajinder,

You can find the list of out-of-the-box entities here:

msdn.microsoft.com/.../gg328086.aspx

The customer can also add custom entities, so you would use the SDK to get the entity metadata using the RetrieveAllEntitiesRequest request msdn.microsoft.com/.../microsoft.xrm.sdk.messages.retrieveallentitiesrequest.aspx

Hope this helps! I'd appreciate if you'd mark this as Answering your question.

Thanks,

Aiden

I recommend XRMToolbox (http://www.xrmtoolbox.com/) because it has a very nice Metadata Document Generator that will export all our entities and fields.

Well actually I was looking for something like this in the below link:

List- community.dynamics.com/.../list-of-object-types-in-dynamics-crm-2011

Is something similar available for CRM 2016 Online and On-premise?

Hi Aiden Kaskela,

As suggested I referred msdn.microsoft.com/.../gg328086.aspx for entity list.

I would like to know difference between "Entities for developer use" and "Internal entities". Will it make any issue/problem if I am using Web API (xxx.com/api/data/v8.1/Entity-Name) and performing CRUD operation on Internal Entities?

Hi,

"Entities for developer use" are the entities you can interact programatically (by whatever method you'd prefer). These are entities like Contact, Account, Email and all the other objects you'd want to work with in CRM.

"Internal Entities" are objects in CRM that you cannot access programatically (by supported means). These are entities that are for internal use that support the CRM structure and available entities. This would include things like 'principalobjectaccess', which is responsible for who has access to what. As a developer you don't need that table directly because you would grant access using a GrantAccess message.

Thanks!

Hi,

I tried to perform GET operation on internal entity "attachments" and it ran successful.

GET xxx.com/.../attachments

Response:

{

"@odata.context": "http://xxx.com/api/data/v8.0/$metadata#attachments",

"value": [ ]

}

So above request executed successfully.

So I want to know can I support CRUD operation on internal entities via Web API for CRM integration ?
