FetchXML Builder is currently used more than 3000 4000 5000 6000 times EVERY DAY! Check out the latest stats.
When Stunnware Tools was discontinued, I searched for a tool to create advanced FetchXML queries.
I didn’t find any.
So, I created it.
Build queries for Microsoft Dataverse, Dynamics 365 and the Power Platform. Investigate data. Get code. Empower yourself to achieve more.
FetchXML Builder – empowering since 2014

Continued support
The development and support of FetchXML Builder has undoubtedly consumed a few hours over the years since its initial release in 2014.
If you (or your company) feel that this tool has helped you in your work, perhaps by saving you a few hours of work, donations for the continued support and development are accepted, appreciated, and will grant you a good feeling and perhaps a sticker if you like, and a spot on the FetchXML Builder Supporters Wall of Fame (unless you want to be an anonymous supporter).
You can also use this direct link to the PayPal donations page.
Installation
Like all tools for XrmToolBox, FetchXML Builder is installed from the Tool Library within XrmToolBox.
In some scenarios, the Tool Library in XrmToolBox might not be allowed to access the tools to download, and if you for some reason might want to install an older version of FetchXML Builder, you may follow the steps for Manual installation of FetchXML Builder.
To install XrmToolBox, see these instructions.
