• FAQ

  Question: In Visual Studio 2017, upon configuring the service endpoint in the OData Connected Services extension and clicking "Finish", I get an error message that says "Value cannot be null.\r\nParameter name: path1".
  Workaround: Download the Microsoft WCF ToolKit and install it. Then go to the registry and find the following key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Microsoft WCF Data Services]. Create a duplicate of "VS 2010 Tooling" (if this doesn't exist, use "5.6" instead) named "VS 2014 Tooling". Then try again. (Special thanks to mohsenno1 for pointing this out.)

  Question: In Visual Studio 2017, upon configuring the service endpoint in the OData Connected Services extension and clicking "Finish", I get an error message that says "Cannot access".
  Workaround: Most reported issues for this error are related to authentication-based endpoints. This extension does not currently support authentication. To work around, download the metadata as a text file from the endpoint and then point the OData Connected Services URI to the downloaded file.
