odata - combining $expand and $select

Question

In odata v4.0 is there an option for combining $expand and $select together?

I have a scenario wherein I'm trying to get specific columns in productItemChoices and item. The below query will give you all the columns in productItemChoices. I only need one column in the productItemChoices

odata/Products(08f80b45-68a9-4a9f-a516-556e69e6bd58)?$expand=productItemChoices($expand=item($select=name)) 

Answer 1

After going through a lot of time on this, I finally got the answer. We can nest select within expand using ; as a separator, something like

odata/Products(8)?$expand=choices($select=col1,col2;$expand=item($select=name)) 

This is documented in the OData v4 $expand documentation. The documentation also lists other useful examples such as

Categories?$expand=Products($filter=DiscontinuedDate eq null) Categories?$expand=Products/$count($search=blue)
