Hi @Liam_Cheung !

Can you fill out the context part of your post ?
Can you share the models linked to the collections that have the belongsTo relationship ?

@Liam_Cheung Looking at your screenshot it looks like a hasMany relationship.

Here Audit test hasMany Documents

When deleting a document from an Audit test, no route/end point is ever called.

Is that right?

Hi,

Yes that is correct.

Hello @Liam_Cheung :wave:

I couldnā€™t reproduce this with a hasMany relationship. Do you have any errors in your console ?

Steve.

Nothing in the console that I can seeā€¦

Note that this only happens when accessing the record through a relationship, it does work when accessing the collection directly.

Hey @Liam_Cheung,

Could you send a video reproducing this issue with your network tabs open please :pray:. You can use Loom for example.

Hi, I uploaded a quicktime to my google drive. I am hoping you can ask for permission to view and I can grant it.

Hi @Liam_Cheung,
I am sorry but the video quality is so low that I cannot read the error messages.
Would you mind doing this record with something like Loom?
Thanks!

I just shared with you the high quality version of the file.

Hi @Liam_Cheung,

Are your ā€œDocumentsā€ linked to ā€œAudit Testā€ via a smart relationship ? Iā€™ll test in that specific case but I think this might be related to the original issue

13

In collection(ā€˜usersā€™, ā€¦fields: [ā€¦
{
field: ā€˜documentsā€™,
type: [ā€˜Stringā€™],
reference: ā€˜document._idā€™,
}
], ā€¦)

14

Great. And I guess your Documents is similar to the one from our Smart collections example ?

Iā€™m currently giving this setup a try, just to make sure Iā€™m able to reproduce

15

Actaully I see what you mean now. Both users and documents are regular mongo collections.

16

Hi @Liam_Cheung,

Could you tell me how your Documents are related to the Users collection? Is that a subcollection (ie. documents are stored directly on users and displayed as a relationship)? Or a reference (ie. any document carry a reference to a user)?

Thanks in advance, that might be of some help to reproduce your issue.

17

As a reference. The document has a field user_id so the relationship lists all documents with that user id.

Hey @Liam_Cheung Iā€™ve added a ticket on our end to tackle this issue asap. Iā€™ll let you know once we have something on our end.

@Liam_Cheung Weā€™ve released a fix! We now trigger HTTP DELETE for hasMany smart relationship. Let us know if that helps!

Hi @louis

Thanks for this. I notice that the url comes in as:
Request URL:https://forest-map.qa.eu.mylo.ai/forest/users/5f18847ea674170007ede6ef/relationships/documents?delete=true

Request Method: DELETE

Does the parameter delete=true at the end mean anything?

Also the payload seems a little differnt than normal, when we ask to delete multiple records in a regular collection we get this payload:
image

Which is parsable with RecordsGetter.getIdsFromRequest

With this one will there be a parser to get the ids?
