Failure Logs

If the reference on model is “contracts” (my model “contracts” exists and use a collection “contracts” in a database “contracts”):

I test with a ref to “contracts.contracts”:

I check if the contract model is loaded before the model which use the “contracts” model, it’s ok (my model is “interconnections”):

Context

• Project name: Intent
• Team name: Intent
• Environment name: Development
• Agent type & version: “forest-express-mongoose”: “^8.7.7”,

Hi @LouisLoode,

Could you please show me how you did that relationship between those 2 databases please ?

Hey vince,
This is my interconnections model:

// This model was generated by Lumber. However, you remain in control of your models.
// Learn how here: https://docs.forestadmin.com/documentation/v/v6/reference-guide/models/enrich-your-models

module.exports = (mongoose, Mongoose) => {
  // This section contains the properties of your model, mapped to your collection's properties.
  const schema = Mongoose.Schema({
    contacts: {
      type: String
    },
    slug: {
      type: String,
      require: true
    },
    tickets: {
      type: [String]
    },
    contracts: [{ type: Mongoose.Schema.Types.ObjectId, ref: 'contracts' }]
  }, {
    timestamps: { createdAt: 'creationDate', updatedAt: 'lastUpdateDate' },
    versionKey: false // You should be aware of the outcome after set to false
  });

  schema.index(
    {
      slug: 1
    },
    { unique: true }
  );

  return mongoose.model('interconnections', schema, 'interconnections');
};

That’s all the code of my relashionship
