Entity expressions

Resolves an object by its entity name and Id.

// Input (the passed id exists)
'{Public_Users(7af30531-d15d-4004-a4bb-21052299f549).Name}'
// Output: 
'John Doe'

// Input (the passed id exists)
'{General_Products_Products(4282f8c5-2ba8-4adc-b112-c9f5ca2675f2).Name}'
// Output
'Product X'

If the entity name or the Id don't exist, the evaluation fails, and the output will contain an error message.

// Input
'{General_Product(2fa67d60-be11-41ec-beac-976e666ece4f)}'
// Output
'#Error: Entity 'General_Product' not found#'

// Input (the passed id does NOT exist)
'{General_Products_Products(1cbbe47c-2f54-4fcf-be46-7eb7c5a139e8)}'
// Output
'#Error: Entity object '1cbbe47c-2f54-4fcf-be46-7eb7c5a139e8' not found#'

The error handling when passing invalid reference still applies. The evaluation will return an error.

// Input
'{Public_Users(7af30531-d15d-4004-a4bb-21052299f549).FullName}' 
// Output
'#Error: Attribute 'FullName' not found#'
