<# .SYNOPSIS Import a set of Data Entities into Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations .DESCRIPTION Imports a set of Data Entities, defined as a json payloads, using the OData endpoint of the Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations The entire payload will be batched into a single request against the OData endpoint .PARAMETER EntityName Name of the Data Entity you want to work against The parameter is Case Sensitive, because the OData endpoint in D365FO is Case Sensitive Remember that most Data Entities in a D365FO environment is named by its singular name, but most be retrieve using the plural name E.g. The version 3 of the customers Data Entity is named CustomerV3, but can only be retrieving using CustomersV3 Look at the Get-D365ODataPublicEntity cmdlet to help you obtain the correct name .PARAMETER Payload The entire string contain the json objects that you want to import into the D365FO environment Payload supports multiple json objects, that needs to be batched together .PARAMETER CrossCompany Instruct the cmdlet / function to ensure the request against the OData endpoint will work across all companies .PARAMETER ThrottleSeed Instruct the cmdlet to invoke a thread sleep between 1 and ThrottleSeed value This is to help to mitigate the 429 retry throttling on the OData / Custom Service endpoints It makes most sense if you are running things a outer loop, where you will hit the OData / Custom Service endpoints with a burst of calls in a short time .PARAMETER Tenant Azure Active Directory (AAD) tenant id (Guid) that the D365FO environment is connected to, that you want to access through OData .PARAMETER Url URL / URI for the D365FO environment you want to access through OData .PARAMETER SystemUrl URL / URI for the D365FO instance where the OData endpoint is available If you are working against a D365FO instance, it will be the URL / URI for the instance itself, which is the same as the Url parameter value If you are working against a D365 Talent / HR instance, this will to be full instance URL / URI like "https://aos-rts-sf-b1b468164ee-prod-northeurope.hr.talent.dynamics.com/namespaces/0ab49d18-6325-4597-97b3-c7f2321aa80c" .PARAMETER ClientId The ClientId obtained from the Azure Portal when you created a Registered Application .PARAMETER ClientSecret The ClientSecret obtained from the Azure Portal when you created a Registered Application .PARAMETER RawOutput Instructs the cmdlet to output the raw json string directly .PARAMETER Token Pass a bearer token string that you want to use for while working against the endpoint This can improve performance if you are iterating over a large collection/array .PARAMETER EnableException This parameters disables user-friendly warnings and enables the throwing of exceptions This is less user friendly, but allows catching exceptions in calling scripts .EXAMPLE PS C:\> Import-D365ODataEntityBatchMode -EntityName "ExchangeRates" -Payload '{"@odata.type" :"Microsoft.Dynamics.DataEntities.ExchangeRate", "RateTypeName": "TEST", "FromCurrency": "DKK", "ToCurrency": "EUR", "StartDate": "2019-01-03T00:00:00Z", "Rate": 745.10, "ConversionFactor": "Hundred", "RateTypeDescription": "TEST"}','{"@odata.type" :"Microsoft.Dynamics.DataEntities.ExchangeRate", "RateTypeName": "TEST", "FromCurrency": "DKK", "ToCurrency": "EUR", "StartDate": "2019-01-04T00:00:00Z", "Rate": 745.10, "ConversionFactor": "Hundred", "RateTypeDescription": "TEST"}' This will import a set of Data Entities into Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations using the OData endpoint. The EntityName used for the import is ExchangeRates. The Payload is an array containing valid json strings, each containing all the needed properties. .EXAMPLE PS C:\> $Payload = '{"@odata.type" :"Microsoft.Dynamics.DataEntities.ExchangeRate", "RateTypeName": "TEST", "FromCurrency": "DKK", "ToCurrency": "EUR", "StartDate": "2019-01-03T00:00:00Z", "Rate": 745.10, "ConversionFactor": "Hundred", "RateTypeDescription": "TEST"}','{"@odata.type" :"Microsoft.Dynamics.DataEntities.ExchangeRate", "RateTypeName": "TEST", "FromCurrency": "DKK", "ToCurrency": "EUR", "StartDate": "2019-01-04T00:00:00Z", "Rate": 745.10, "ConversionFactor": "Hundred", "RateTypeDescription": "TEST"}' PS C:\> Import-D365ODataEntityBatchMode -EntityName "ExchangeRates" -Payload $Payload This will import a set of Data Entities into Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations using the OData endpoint. First the desired json data is put into the $Payload variable. The EntityName used for the import is ExchangeRates. The $Payload variable is passed to the cmdlet. .EXAMPLE PS C:\> $token = Get-D365ODataToken PS C:\> Import-D365ODataEntityBatchMode -EntityName "ExchangeRates" -Payload '{"@odata.type" :"Microsoft.Dynamics.DataEntities.ExchangeRate", "RateTypeName": "TEST", "FromCurrency": "DKK", "ToCurrency": "EUR", "StartDate": "2019-01-03T00:00:00Z", "Rate": 745.10, "ConversionFactor": "Hundred", "RateTypeDescription": "TEST"}','{"@odata.type" :"Microsoft.Dynamics.DataEntities.ExchangeRate", "RateTypeName": "TEST", "FromCurrency": "DKK", "ToCurrency": "EUR", "StartDate": "2019-01-04T00:00:00Z", "Rate": 745.10, "ConversionFactor": "Hundred", "RateTypeDescription": "TEST"}' -Token $token This will import a set of Data Entities into Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations using the OData endpoint. It will get a fresh token, saved it into the token variable and pass it to the cmdlet. The EntityName used for the import is ExchangeRates. The Payload is an array containing valid json strings, each containing all the needed properties. .EXAMPLE PS C:\> Import-D365ODataEntityBatchMode -EntityName "ExchangeRates" -Payload '{"@odata.type" :"Microsoft.Dynamics.DataEntities.ExchangeRate", "RateTypeName": "TEST", "FromCurrency": "DKK", "ToCurrency": "EUR", "StartDate": "2019-01-03T00:00:00Z", "Rate": 745.10, "ConversionFactor": "Hundred", "RateTypeDescription": "TEST"}','{"@odata.type" :"Microsoft.Dynamics.DataEntities.ExchangeRate", "RateTypeName": "TEST", "FromCurrency": "DKK", "ToCurrency": "EUR", "StartDate": "2019-01-04T00:00:00Z", "Rate": 745.10, "ConversionFactor": "Hundred", "RateTypeDescription": "TEST"}' This will import a set of Data Entities into Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations using the OData endpoint. The EntityName used for the import is ExchangeRates. The Payload is an array containing valid json strings, each containing all the needed properties. .EXAMPLE PS C:\> Import-D365ODataEntityBatchMode -EntityName "ExchangeRates" -Payload '{"@odata.type" :"Microsoft.Dynamics.DataEntities.ExchangeRate", "RateTypeName": "TEST", "FromCurrency": "DKK", "ToCurrency": "EUR", "StartDate": "2019-01-03T00:00:00Z", "Rate": 745.10, "ConversionFactor": "Hundred", "RateTypeDescription": "TEST"}','{"@odata.type" :"Microsoft.Dynamics.DataEntities.ExchangeRate", "RateTypeName": "TEST", "FromCurrency": "DKK", "ToCurrency": "EUR", "StartDate": "2019-01-04T00:00:00Z", "Rate": 745.10, "ConversionFactor": "Hundred", "RateTypeDescription": "TEST"}' -ThrottleSeed 2 This will import a set of Data Entities into Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations using the OData endpoint, and sleep/pause between 1 and 2 seconds. The EntityName used for the import is ExchangeRates. The Payload is an array containing valid json strings, each containing all the needed properties. It will use the ThrottleSeed 2 to sleep/pause the execution, to mitigate the 429 pushback from the endpoint. .NOTES Tags: OData, Data, Entity, Import, Upload Author: Mötz Jensen (@Splaxi) #> function Import-D365ODataEntityBatchMode { [CmdletBinding()] [OutputType('System.String')] param ( [Parameter(Mandatory = $true)] [string] $EntityName, [Parameter(Mandatory = $true)] [Alias('Json')] [string[]] $Payload, [switch] $CrossCompany, [int] $ThrottleSeed, [Alias('$AadGuid')] [string] $Tenant = $Script:ODataTenant, [Alias('Uri')] [string] $Url = $Script:ODataUrl, [string] $SystemUrl = $Script:ODataSystemUrl, [string] $ClientId = $Script:ODataClientId, [string] $ClientSecret = $Script:ODataClientSecret, [switch] $RawOutput, [string] $Token, [switch] $EnableException ) begin { if ([System.String]::IsNullOrEmpty($SystemUrl)) { Write-PSFMessage -Level Verbose -Message "The SystemUrl parameter was empty, using the Url parameter as the OData endpoint base address." -Target $SystemUrl $SystemUrl = $Url } if ([System.String]::IsNullOrEmpty($Url) -or [System.String]::IsNullOrEmpty($SystemUrl)) { $messageString = "It seems that you didn't supply a valid value for the Url parameter.
