GetEntity

Description:

Returns data for the specified entity, including mappings and sub-entities.

Full Syntax:

<GetEntity XPathLookup="/x/y/z" EntityType="Manufacturer|Distributor|Category|Section|Genre|Vector" EntityGUID="uniqueidentifier" EntityID="integer" IncludeImages="boolean" GetAllLocale="boolean" Recursive="boolean"/>

Notes:

  • If ID and GUID are left blank, WSI will return all of the entities of the specified type from the root all the way down the tree.
  • If you specify an ID or GUID, WSI will return all of that entity's data, as well as any sub-entities under it.
  • If IncludeImages is true, all image data (icon, medium, and large) images will be returned for all entities.
  • The desired entity can be specified by ID, GUID, or Xpath.

Warnings:

Depending on what you specify (or more importantly, don't specify) and your entity structure, the returned data set could be huge.

Example(s):

Return all information for all categories.
<GetEntity EntityType="Category" EntityID="1" Recursive="boolean" IncludeImages="boolean"/>
