Resource Types
You can use the resource types (or constructs) described and explained here to define how the service definition
exposes data. For example, the Service Document, Resource Type, or Entity sets enable you to select and view
the contents of the entity sets that are queried.
Service Document
The most basic resource type is the call to the .xsodata resource itself. This supplies information about the
entity set within this resource; otherwise known as the Service Document.
● Sample XSODATA Service:
service namespace "SAMPLE" {
"sample.hello::hello_tbl" as "Entries";
}
● URI Construct:
/.xsodata/
● Sample URI:
http://hanaxs:8000/sample/hello/hello_odata.xsodata/
● Sample XML Output:
● Sample JSON Output:
