[Protocol Method] Get complete definition of an entity given its GUID.

public virtual Azure.Response GetEntity (string guid, bool? minExtInfo, bool? ignoreRelationships, Azure.RequestContext context);
abstract member GetEntity : string * Nullable<bool> * Nullable<bool> * Azure.RequestContext -> Azure.Response
override this.GetEntity : string * Nullable<bool> * Nullable<bool> * Azure.RequestContext -> Azure.Response
Public Overridable Function GetEntity (guid As String, minExtInfo As Nullable(Of Boolean), ignoreRelationships As Nullable(Of Boolean), context As RequestContext) As Response

Parameters

guid
String

The globally unique identifier of the entity.

minExtInfo
Nullable<Boolean>

Whether to return minimal information for referred entities.

ignoreRelationships
Nullable<Boolean>

Whether to ignore relationship attributes.

context
RequestContext

The request context, which can override default behaviors of the client pipeline on a per-call basis.

Returns

The response returned from the service.

Exceptions

guid is null.

guid is an empty string, and was expected to be non-empty.

Service returned a non-success status code.

Examples

This sample shows how to call GetEntity and parse the result.

Uri endpoint = new Uri("<https://my-service.azure.com>");
TokenCredential credential = new DefaultAzureCredential();
Entity client = new DataMapClient(endpoint, credential).GetEntityClient();

Response response = client.GetEntity("<guid>", null, null, null);

JsonElement result = JsonDocument.Parse(response.ContentStream).RootElement;
Console.WriteLine(result.ToString());
