Subject: [OASIS Issue Tracker] Created: (ODATA-398) Defined "GetByID" canonical function
Defined "GetByID" canonical function ------------------------------------ Key: ODATA-398 URL: http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/ODATA-398 Project: OASIS Open Data Protocol (OData) TC Issue Type: Improvement Components: OData ABNF Construction Rules, OData Protocol , OData URL Conventions Affects Versions: V4.0_CSD01 Environment: [Proposed] Reporter: Michael Pizzo Fix For: V4.0_CSD02 Ids are the primary way to reference an instance in OData; they are used in relationships, in deltas, and can take the place of instances in payloads. We recommend, but do not require that ids be dereferenceable. Clients need a dependable way to get from an id to a reference, whether or not the reference is dereferencable. Although they could construct a query if they know the root set the id comes from, it would be useful and more discoverable to introduce a canonical query function, at the service root, for returning an instance given its id. Note that, since the id is likely to contain illegal characters, we have to pass the id as a query option, and will need to double single quotes in reference Options: GET ~myservice/getbyid(@id)?@id='.....' GET ~myservice/$getbyid?@id='.....' -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
