The request URL or the metadata definition is incorrect.
Message type: E = Error
Message class: /IWFND/MED - Message Class for Metadata Access
Message number: 167
Message text: The request URL or the metadata definition is incorrect.
What causes this issue?
The metadata entity with the internal ID '&V1&' has not been found. This
means that the request URL or the metadata definition in BEP (or SAP
Gateway) contains an error.
Possible reasons are
The URL contains a segment with a wrong name. E.g. the requested entity
set or function import does not exist.
The metadata definition is not correct. E.g. the definition of an
association references to an entity set that does not exist. This is
especially likely if two services have been composed via method
INCLUDE_MODEL_BY_SERVICE_ID in the BEP Add-On.
System Response
