Description

I was just making my way through the OData Advanced Tutorial on your site and (if I’m understanding correctly) it looks like there are some mistakes in the tutorial:

  1. Under “Requesting property of Singleton” there is no request.

  2. (Minor) Under Filter on Derived Type there is a type-o in the word FligthNumber.

  3. Under Create a Derived Entity, the Event entity is being created in the Trips collection. Shouldn’t it be created in the PlanItems collection of a particular trip? (I think this might be a copy/paste error from an example further down the page)

Research direction

Open the OData Advanced Tutorial at the linked URL and inspect the “Requesting property of Singleton,” “Filter on Derived Type,” and “Create a Derived Entity” sections. Add the missing request, correct “FligthNumber,” and verify the Event creation example uses the intended collection; done means all three reported mistakes are corrected.
