             Summary: Dry-run of data modification requests
                 Key: ODATA-1504
                 URL: https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/ODATA-1504
             Project: OASIS Open Data Protocol (OData) TC
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Protocol
    Affects Versions: V4.01_OS
            Reporter: Ralf Handl
             Fix For: V4.02_WD01


Add a feature to allow submitting a data modification request in "simulation" or "dry-run" mode without actually modifying data:
 * Client sends request in the usual form, only difference is an additional "dry-run" header
 * Service processes the request
 ## Syntax check
 ## Semantic check (business rules are satisfied)
 ## Simulated request outcome (for 201 or 200 responses)
 * Service does not perform the data modification
 * Service responds in the usual form (response code, headers and body), only difference is an additional "was a dry-run" header

Service announces dry-run capability via annotation on entity container or top-level resource.

Service may announce check level (1. is minimum, 2. and 3. are optional) in the annotation.
