Remarks
The following code snippet from Sample: Query metadata and detect changes shows the use of MetadataConditionExpression to set conditions for Entities and Attributes to return.
// An array SchemaName values for non-intersect, user-owned entities that should not be returned.
String[] excludedEntities = {
"WorkflowLog",
"Template",
"CustomerOpportunityRole",
"Import",
"UserQueryVisualization",
"UserEntityInstanceData",
"ImportLog",
"RecurrenceRule",
"QuoteClose",
"UserForm",
"SharePointDocumentLocation",
"Queue",
"DuplicateRule",
"OpportunityClose",
"Workflow",
"RecurringAppointmentMaster",
"CustomerRelationship",
"Annotation",
"SharePointSite",
"ImportData",
"ImportFile",
"OrderClose",
"Contract",
"BulkOperation",
"CampaignResponse",
"Connection",
"Report",
"CampaignActivity",
"UserEntityUISettings",
"IncidentResolution",
"GoalRollupQuery",
"MailMergeTemplate",
"Campaign",
"PostFollow",
"ImportMap",
"Goal",
"AsyncOperation",
"ProcessSession",
"UserQuery",
"ActivityPointer",
"List",
"ServiceAppointment"};
//A filter expression to limit entities returned to non-intersect, user-owned entities not found in the list of excluded entities.
MetadataFilterExpression EntityFilter = new MetadataFilterExpression(LogicalOperator.And);
EntityFilter.Conditions.Add(new MetadataConditionExpression("IsIntersect", MetadataConditionOperator.Equals, false));
EntityFilter.Conditions.Add(new MetadataConditionExpression("OwnershipType", MetadataConditionOperator.Equals, OwnershipTypes.UserOwned));
EntityFilter.Conditions.Add(new MetadataConditionExpression("SchemaName", MetadataConditionOperator.NotIn, excludedEntities));
MetadataConditionExpression isVisibileInMobileTrue = new MetadataConditionExpression("IsVisibleInMobile", MetadataConditionOperator.Equals, true);
EntityFilter.Conditions.Add(isVisibileInMobileTrue);
//A condition expresson to return optionset attributes
MetadataConditionExpression[] optionsetAttributeTypes = new MetadataConditionExpression[] {
new MetadataConditionExpression("AttributeType", MetadataConditionOperator.Equals, AttributeTypeCode.Picklist),
new MetadataConditionExpression("AttributeType", MetadataConditionOperator.Equals, AttributeTypeCode.State),
new MetadataConditionExpression("AttributeType", MetadataConditionOperator.Equals, AttributeTypeCode.Status),
new MetadataConditionExpression("AttributeType", MetadataConditionOperator.Equals, AttributeTypeCode.Boolean)
};
//A filter expression to apply the optionsetAttributeTypes condition expression
MetadataFilterExpression AttributeFilter = new MetadataFilterExpression(LogicalOperator.Or);
AttributeFilter.Conditions.AddRange(optionsetAttributeTypes);
//A Properties expression to limit the properties to be included with attributes
MetadataPropertiesExpression AttributeProperties = new MetadataPropertiesExpression() { AllProperties = false };
AttributeProperties.PropertyNames.Add("OptionSet");
AttributeProperties.PropertyNames.Add("AttributeType");
//An entity query expression to combine the filter expressions and property expressions for the query.
EntityQueryExpression entityQueryExpression = new EntityQueryExpression()
{
Criteria = EntityFilter,
Properties = EntityProperties,
AttributeQuery = new AttributeQueryExpression()
{
Criteria = AttributeFilter,
Properties = AttributeProperties
},
LabelQuery = labelQuery
};
//Retrieve the metadata for the query without a ClientVersionStamp
RetrieveMetadataChangesResponse initialRequest = getMetadataChanges(entityQueryExpression, null, DeletedMetadataFilters.OptionSet);
