PropertyType search problems with RESO API

Question

I am using connect-mls RESO API and I am having a problem forming the query to search for via PropertyType.

http://odata.reso.org/RESO/OData/Property?$filter=/PropertyType/Name eq "Residential"

The above query keeps coming up with malformed URI.

I also run into a problem is if try to filter on the PropertyType field directly via $filter=(PropertyType eq 'Residental') or $filter=(PropertyType eq 'DE').

I get the following error message:

"message": "StatusCodeError: 400 - {\"error\":{\"code\":null,\"message\":\"The types 'ODataService.PropertyType' and 'Edm.String' are not compatible.\"}}"

Also looked at values in the data dictionary because it seems property type is a enum but have not had any success in any of the formats.

Appreciate any guidance on this.

Answer 1

I was able to find the answer from another source. For the enums they are in a format of ODataService.PropertyType'DE'. A proper API call example is listed below.

For more detailed information on how to properly construct these types of queries, you can look at http://www.odata.org/documentation/
