I am trying to do a batch operation using dataverse REST API with the header ('Prefer : odata.continue-on-error') to upload valid rows even if there are bad rows in the batch. This appears to be not working. I am not recieving any error and also the rows doesn't show up in the crm. I am following this documentation https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/odata/webapi/batch#enabledisable-continue-on-error-in-batch-request.
Can anyone guide me what I am missing in my request or this header is not supported in web api?
Hello @ARauf1,
As per my knowledge REST API won't support odata.continue-on-error. Lets wait for others comments too.
Try using ExceuteMultipleRequest for achieving your behavior.

Hello @rampprakash , I am having the same suspicious but based on the documentation it looks like it should work for the REST API (MS Dataverse). I will do wait to see if more replies pop out.
Could you please tel me what you are try to do, so that i can suggest some other solution too
Hello @rampprakash I am trying to upload accounts where one accunt information is valid and one is not valid. I have attached below the trace snaps from fiddler for the request header and body. It works if all the records are valid and i do see the rows in the crm. The whole reason I was using Prefer : odata.continue-on-error So I can add all the valid rows even if there are bad rows in the batch. Otherwise it won't add even the valid rows if there is a bad row. Let say I have 10 rows adn row 5 and 6 are not valid. It should skip row 5 and 6 and upload the rest of the rows and I can retrieve the information from response about the bad rows.
Hi,
I hope you are not using Changeset in your batch request because changeset is atomic in nature and it will rollback the records if any create any in case of failure.

@bipinshan Yes you were right. After sending each item in a separate changeset I was able to upload valid rows and retrieve the infomation about bad rows. Thanks
