    for the columns there are tools like Attribute Factory inside XrmToolBox to assist you on that, for the tables I am not aware of a tool

    if you will need to follow exactly the sample there and adapting to your needs. Creating and updating table definitions with Web API (as you can see) involves the use of several ComplexType attributes.

    It's not a common requirement to be able to create tables using Web API, I would double check if this is really what are you looking for

    @Ahammad_Riyaz ,

    Which values are you referring to, is it metadata properties of table or for column?

     

    Regards,

    What do you mean by not getting clarity on passing values? Do you have a sample request and response that is failing?

     

    Thank you
