    Hello Juan,

    Thank you for your reply. Our team's view is that if we build our product using REST API, we can be flexible to adopt to different environments and also avoid dependencies on specific sharepoint assemblies (like Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.dll ) . If I cannot resolve my ChangeQuery call using REST, then we would go for CSOM. 

     

    Thanks,
