You can create a virtual OData service from an existing OData service, also called as a Native OData service in CentraSite, meaning that you create the virtual copy (proxy) of the existing OData service instance using an already imported input file. For procedures, see Run-Time Governance with CentraSite.

You can create a virtual OData service using an importer, which is a utility that generates an appropriate virtual OData service from an imported archive file. For more information about using an importer, see Creating an OData Service using OData Importer from the UI detailed earlier.
