Question

Using REST API, able to pull down customers, contacts, and addresses via the Customer entity, however, when I try to get CustomerLocation entities, I am just getting an empty set.

Using latest version as of the writing of this question (2018R1 dated something like Aug 17 2018).

I've tried the following:

CustomerLocation?$expand=LocationContact

CustomerLocation?$expand=LocationContact,LocationContact/Address

Neither of them return any data.

Answer 1

The CustomerLocation entity is linked to a Generic Inquiry that is defined to allow creation of new records, so it was causing an error trying to persist the data when trying to do a Put to it since I was not supplying a body or a valid structure.

How I got this to work was to create my own Generic Inquiry, linking it to an entity in my extended endpoint, and adding a Detail property within the entity that would serve as the collection of detail records returned by the Generic Inquiry. Then put all of the fields from the Generic Inquiry within the Results Fields.

Now, I can get the records from the Generic Inquiry by doing a Put request via my endpoint entity: AICustomerLocationGI?$expand=Results

Note: It's important to do a Put instead of a Get if you want to avoid getting BQL Delegate errors on some DACs.

That returned all records at once, but got me where I initially needed to be. Next, I added a parameter, Greater Than condition, and sorting on Address ID to the Generic Inquiry and defined the generic inquiry to return the top 100 records. By passing the last Address ID of the previous batch of records in the body of the Put request, this gave me a paging mechanism for returning the records.
