Hi, I’m building a proof of concept OData service in Mendix 8. The metadata for this service is below. I’ve exposed multiple entities and been able to query them just fine. But, I don’t see anywhere in the documentation on how to perform data modification.  I know that Odata 3 services aren’t required to expose data modification functionality. Also, according to Odata3 documentation, these types of requests should contain “valid entity representation.” However, there isn’t anywhere in the docs that specify what a valid entity representation is. Do Mendix exposed Odata services allow data creation/modification/deletion? Is there any documentation on valid entity representation for these types of requests?   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <edmx:Edmx xmlns:edmx="http://schemas.microsoft.com/ado/2007/06/edmx"
