Message Availability
This message works regardless whether the caller is connected to the server or offline.
Usage
Pass an instance of this class to the Execute method, which returns an instance of RetrieveAllEntitiesResponse.
Privileges and Access Rights
To perform this action, the caller must have privileges listed in RetrieveAllEntities message privileges.
Notes for Callers
This request returns a large amount of data and may take significant time to return all the data. When there are a large number of customizations it is possible that this request could fail due to time limitations using Microsoft Dynamics 365 (online).
Use the RetrieveMetadataChangesRequest to request just the metadata you need. Otherwise, use EntityFilters.Entity as the parameter to minimize the amount of data retrieved. Then, using the LogicalName returned for each entity, use the RetrieveEntityRequest class to for each entity that you need metadata for. Splitting up the requests can reduce the chance that your request will time out.
The following example shows how to use this message. For this sample to work correctly, you must be connected to the server to get an IOrganizationService interface. For the complete sample, see the link later in this topic.
Any public static ( Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
