What is Odata?
OData (Open Data Protocol) is an OASIS standard approved by ISO/IEC, defining a set of best practices for building and consuming RESTful APIs. OData enables you to focus on business logic when constructing RESTful APIs, without worrying about the various approaches to defining request and response headers, status codes, HTTP methods, URL conventions, media types, payload formats, query options, and more. It also provides guidance for tracking changes, defining reusable functions/actions for procedures, and sending asynchronous/batch requests. OData RESTful APIs are user-friendly. The OData metadata, a machine-readable description of the API's data model, facilitates the creation of robust, general-purpose client proxies and tools.
