Hi,
I created a new Item API with Item Unit of Measure as a part.

When I do a GET request with ?$expand=*

The Item Unit Of Measure is added as a Entity (itemunitofMeassure) and as an EntitySet (itemunitofMeassure)

When I remove the part I still get the Entity(itemunitofMeasure) added to the API Response.

How can I remove the Entity and only show the Entity Set?

when using GET check if you are putting this partname in the URL itself.

Hi Nitin,
The full URL is {{baseurl}}/{{tenantID}}/{{EnvironmentName}}/api/{{Publisher}}/{{APIGroup}}/v2.0/companies({{Company}})/items?$expand=*

In the expand is it known that the EntityName is added even if the part is removed?
I would like to know why and how an EntityName is added
