Get entity connections in ODATA RRS feed

  • Question

  • Hi,

     

    When generating an ODATA endpoint in Silverlight, strongly typed classes are generated for Account for example.

    Now I want to access the connections of that account, but Account has 'Account_connections1' and 'Account_connections2'.

    When running the project, both properties are filled with the same data, can anyone explain the difference?

     

    Thanks in advance,

  • Connection entity has two relationships with the account entity.

    'Account_connections1' - represents "Connected From"

    'Account_connections2' - represents "Connected To"

    They are 2 different relationship

    If create a connection from the account it will be saved in "Connected From"

    if you create a connection from some other record to this account it will be saved in "Connected To"

    I hope this helps.
