Built a free VS Code extension that shows the operational complexity of any Dataverse entities

Been building DV Quick Run for about 2-3 months, started because I found Dataverse OData queries painful to work with.

Latest release adds Operational Profiles, one click from any query result shows you the full automation footprint of the entity you just queried. Plugin registrations, relationships, columns, async load, workflow participation, flow references. All evidence-backed, none speculative.

The environment in this screenshot has 53 synchronous plugin steps and 586 relationships on Contact. Most developers working in it had no idea.

Free VS Code extension — no strings attached. Happy to answer any questions about how it works or what's coming next.

Hey all 👋

I’ve been working with Dataverse APIs for a while now (mostly integration side), and I kept running into the same pain:

- figuring out relationships between tables

- writing $expand chains manually

- jumping between tools just to explore data

So I built a small VS Code extension to make this easier.

The idea is pretty simple:

- run OData queries directly in VS Code

- explore relationships without guessing

- build $expand incrementally instead of rewriting queries

Recently added:

- guided traversal (find path between tables)

- sibling expand (add multiple expands without breaking your query)

- result viewer with clickable actions (investigate record, open in Dataverse, etc.)

It’s still evolving, but it’s already been pretty useful in my day-to-day work.

Would love feedback if anyone wants to try it:

Happy to hear what works / what doesn’t 🙏
