Verified steps

  1. Obtain a bearer token from Azure AD using the OAuth 2.0 client credentials or auth code flow with the Dynamics 365 resource URI as the scope
  2. Construct a GET request to https://{org}.crm.dynamics.com/api/data/vX.X/{entitySetName} with OData query parameters: $select for fields, $filter for conditions, $orderby, and $top for page size
  3. Add the Prefer: odata.maxpagesize={n} request header to control server-side paging; the response will include an @odata.nextLink value when more records exist
  4. Fetch subsequent pages by issuing a GET to the @odata.nextLink URL exactly as returned — do not modify it
  5. Use $expand to include related entity data in the same response (e.g., $expand=primarycontactid($select=fullname))
