Hi,

We are unable to retrieve entity metadata by using Web API. We have the system administrator security role. When we check the below Web API URL (Service Root URL - test.api.crm.dynamics.com/.../EntityDefinitions) in the browser for entity definitions it throw the error as below:

    Hi Vikas,

    I am able to get the EntityDefinitions in my online environment (8.2).

    Your image is not clear, can you copy and paste the error that you are getting in a reply.

    The Error screenshot provided by you is not clear.

    The following URL should work, https://<crm url>/api/data/v8.2/EntityDefinitions

    Thanks!
