Microsoft.OData.Client 9.0.0-preview.2

Microsoft.OData.Client

The Microsoft.OData.Client library allows you to consume data from and interact with OData services from .NET applications. It provides LINQ-enabled client APIs for issuing OData queries and constructing and consuming OData JSON payloads. It supports OData v4 and v4.01.

Installation

You can install the Microsoft.OData.Client package via NuGet:

dotnet add package Microsoft.OData.Client

Or via the NuGet Package Manager Console:

Install-Package Microsoft.OData.Client

Getting Started

Creating an OData Client

To create an OData client, you can use the OData Connected Service in Visual Studio to generate strongly-typed client code for your OData service.

1. Install the OData Connected Service extension:

   • Go to the Extensions menu in Visual Studio.
   • Select Manage Extensions.
   • Search for OData Connected Service and install it.
   • Alternatively, you can get the extension at Visual Studio Marketplace: OData Connected Service and OData Connected Service 2022+

2. Add the OData Connected Service to your project:

   • Right-click your project in the Solution Explorer.
   • Select Add > Connected Service.
   • Choose OData Connected Service and follow the wizard to configure your service.

Example Usage

Here's a simple example of how to use the generated client to interact with an OData service:

using Microsoft.OData.SampleService.Models.TripPin;

var serviceUri = new Uri("https://services.odata.org/V4/TripPinServiceRW/");
var context = new DefaultContainer(serviceUri);

// Querying data
var people = await context.People.ExecuteAsync();
foreach (var person in people)
{
    Console.WriteLine($"{person.FirstName} {person.LastName}");
}
