💡Tip: Convert FetchXml to a Query expression

Have you had a situation where you have a FetchXml query, but you needed to inspect, tweak, or extend it a little?

You can load it into a XElement or XDocument and fiddle with it.

But you can ask Dataverse to convert your FetchXml query to a QueryExpression, just by making a request with FetchXmlToQueryExpressionRequest.

The response will contain a QueryExpression that you can inspect, tweak, and extend.

Btw. If you need to convert it back, there is also a QueryExpressionToFetchXmlRequest.
