Hi,

I am using postman to import data into D365FO but the data is created into the default user company.

I see we can filter based on company while performing GET request but not while POST:https://<D365URL>/data/<DataEntity>.

I am trying to give dataareaid as different company in the body but it doesn't work as well.

Thanks!

Hi Dev,

Can you try with a different environment that is not a Demo? To see if it's a limitation in demo environments.

Thanks,

Import data through odata in a specific company

Hi Layan,

You are right. I tried to post to usmf with empty default company then it posted to DAT.

Also, I tried to change the crosscompany position as u said but still got the wrong result.

Now I am wondering what could be the issue as it is a demo env and I do not have dev access to debug.

Thanks!

Hi Dev,

This shouldn't be the issue. True, Odata returns the data by the user default company,

However, if you want a different dataArea then you use the cross-company.

The only difference i can see that you put cross-company after filter while i did it before (not sure if this is the cause)

And it worked with me even though my user has a default company.

And what if it worked with you because it considered Empty default company as DAT. Try to actually release to usmf now (without default company for the user) and see if it returns dat or usmf.

Thanks,

Hi Layan,

The issue was as the default company was set for the user when I removed that it worked !

Hi Dev,

I just tried it and it works perfectly. (Make sure you are using the correct url)

1. I went to product masters and created an item manually of type Product called Test2.

2. I went to postman, and called the link (url/data/ReleasedProductsV2?cross-company=true&$filter=dataAreaId eq 'dat') as you can see below -- and it returned DAT

If you are still facing the same issue, maybe try to debug and see why it's not behaving properly of if there is any customization

Thanks,

Hi Dev,

It also works for posting. can you please show us what you did? what's the url you used and what did you fill the body with? and if you are getting an error show it to us.

I did an example for creating contacts and it works fine (i specified dataArea in the url and not the body)

Thanks,
