Introduction:

• In this session, we will look at how to implement actions in Cloud Application Programming Model

 

Synopsis:

• In OData specifications, Actions are operations exposed by an OData Service that may have side effects when invoked


• Actions may return data


• You can learn more about Actions in OData in the following blog - https://www.odata.org/blog/actions-in-odata/

 

Steps:

• In this example, we have 2 entities: Projects and Users


• There is a 1 to many relationship between Projects and Users.  So a Project can have multiple Users, while a User can belong to only 1 Project


• We will look at how we can move a User from one Project to another


• We have also introduced a few hypothetical business requirements that need to be met before a User can be moved from one Project to another


• Also, we will return a custom object as the response
