    Sorry, I don't know anything about Java, just JavaScript in CRM.  Maybe you can have it generate some JavaScript and use that as the basis to convert it to Java?  I did a quick Bing search on "crm connect to rest from java" and got some results you can research?

    Good Luck, and if you get it working you should post your final code here for future use by other Java developers.

    Yes, this can be done.  I would recommend that you install this tool

    http://www.infinite-x.net/2014/10/13/new-tool-for-dynamics-crm-developers-crm-rest-builder/

    It will help you to build out the REST query and all the required fields, and it will even generate sample code for you to then mimic in Java.

    Good Luck, hope this helps!

    okay I have seen the above link,I will definitely post my final code,once I complete,but I just tried the above link and I am not able to find a class mentioned in the code. It shows me some error. Whom should I ask regarding this or where should  I post a question regarding this? I also wanted to know again,if it is possible to access dynamics crm from a third-party application I tried hard,but not able to connect my third party application with dynamics crm
