# 7.1.4 Configurar el EDM Model

OData utiliza el [Entity Data Model](https://docs.microsoft.com/es-es/dotnet/framework/data/adonet/entity-data-model) (EDM) para describir la estructura de los datos.

Al final de nuestra clase **Startup** agregamos la siguiente función para construir el Modelo y agregamos nuestra clase **Cliente**

{% code title="Startup.cs" %}

```csharp
private static IEdmModel GetEdmModel()
{
    ODataConventionModelBuilder builder = new ODataConventionModelBuilder();
    builder.EntitySet<Cliente>("Clientes");
    return builder.GetEdmModel();
}
```

{% endcode %}
