I have external Data source that provide REST services used for mobile application and I want to manage this datasource from inside ABP solution
Ex:
https://api.backendless.com/{APIkey}/{app key}/data/Merchant
and I want to implement some screens inside ABP that consume these REST services and use ApplicationService and crud features in CrudAppService
that can't be done without using a class that implement IEntity which I can't do as the data is not in ABP database
what should I do

    0don't use CrudAppService if you don't have an entity. you need to create normal AppService public class MyAppService : ApplicationService, IMyAppService { public async Task DoWorkAsync(DoWorkInput input) { await _yourWebService.DoWorkAsync(input.myValue); } }

    0Yes but in that Case I lost a lot of powerful functionalities that CrudService provide . My question is how can I use most of its functionalties like paging ,sorting , filtering ,.. There is a solution is to build a service like crud service but without the required params for Entities I'm asking if there is something already existed that can help

    0there's no way to use CrudService without an IEntityderivation. you need to make paging sorting filtering manually
