I have a view for a location. This location, that has different services. They are both linked as has many in the model (n-m relation) in the model LocationService.
In this view, it is possible to select different tags for each service of the location. I have a model called location_service_tag, that has the id of the location_service and the id of the tags.
Now I want to store the tags of the location_service combination using the sync method. How is it possible to store this information?
Here is an example (The IDs are free chosen):
I have the view with the location 1.
This location has 2 services with the id 11, 22.
They are stored in location_service with the ids 111,122.
The location_service 111 has the tag id 1111, 2222, the location_service 122 has the tags 2222,4444.
Now I want to store these tags into location_service_tag using sync. How is this possible?
I thought it might be possible somehow like this, but it is not.
foreach($request->servicetags as $servicetag){
if(count($servicetag)>0){
//Final statement must be true, because we want to override e.g. if one is deleted or inserted
$location->locationservice()->tags()->sync($servicetag, true);
}else{
//There are no services, submit an empty array
$location->locationservice()->tags()->sync([], true);
}
}
Finally I did it with:
//Save relational Data of services
//If there are services, add the, else add empty array
if(isset($request->locationservices)){
foreach($request->locationservices as $key => $locationservice){
if(count($locationservice)>0){
LocationService::find($key)->tags()->sync($locationservice, true);
}else{
LocationService::find($key)->tags()->sync([], true);
}
}
}
The key has the locationservice_id as key and the value of the loop has the selected tag_ids as an array for each locationservice.

We are using cloud Dynamics 365 Business Central and trying to get items with all attributes via OData.
In Microsoft documentation we found this endpoint:
api.businesscentral.dynamics.com/v1.0[our tenant id]/Sandbox/ODataV4/Company('CRONUS%20DE')/items
But unfortunately, the response does not contain item attributes and values, such as Farbe, Tiefe, etc.
Next, we tried to add new Web Services. But some of this endpoints return empty values and some of them (7506, 7507, 7508, 7510) don't work and return:
No HTTP resource was found that matches the request URI
Objects 7500, 7501, 7503 contain information about attributes. But non of them (7500 - 7510) does not contain a relation between Item, Attributes, and Values.
Maybe there is another way to get items with their attribute values? We also tried to research microsoft graph but not successful.
i am having similar troubles with this. i find the dynamics api to be exceptionally unintuitive and difficult to use. the furthest i have been able to get has been to go into the api settings for dynamics and uncover the tables for a few item attributes (i believe that the table numbers are as those below:
7500 - Item Attribute
7501 - Item Attribute Value
7502 - Item Attribute Translation
7504 - Item Attribute Value Selection
7505 - Item Attribute Value Mapping
i cannot comment on why 7503 is missing.
using 7500 as an example, when you uncover the table, the system provides a resulting endpoint (unfortunately, they always promote OData, and the outdated SOAP resource; i can't figure out why they have such a vendetta against the simple and easy-to-use REST endpoint).
https://api.businesscentral.dynamics.com/v2.0/<TENANT_ID>/<ENVIRONMENT_NAME>/ODataV4/Company('COMPANY_IDENTIFIER')/ItemAttributes
using this endpoint, you can get a listing of the attribute types themselves (e.g. let's say you've defined an attribute called 'BaseColor', you should get a result here for the name of the attribute 'BaseColor', its ID, its type, etc.),
with the ItemAttributeValues endpoint, you should get the actual attribute values that are in existence (e.g. for some item, you happened to set its 'BaseColor' attribute to 'Blue', you should get a response for this attribute value with a attribute type of 'BaseColor', a value, as 'Blue' along with the entity's ID, etc).
yet, when it comes to any instantiated attribute values for items, i can't figure out how to get the association of the attributes with those items. i expect that the "item attribute value mapping" option would be something along the lines of a item_id - attribute_id pair so that for any item in question, one could query the attributes list with something like a filter. but as you said, upon uncovering some of these elements, their respective endpoints return nothing. you get to the point where you say 'OH...AWSOME! there is a value-item mapping. that makes sense, and i can definitely use that'. a few moments later, the API spits in your face with an error, or craps on you by returning something you don't expect like an empty data set.
this api is a constant uphill battle, and totally riddled with landmines. a complete blow-me-up-pain-in-the-arse.
EDIT: 2021-06-09
i've looked into this some more. i was able to set up an export package for the various tables in question, specifically 7500, 7501, and 7505. the magical table was 7505 as it is the relationship between an attribute value and the item with which it is associated. exporting the package to excel results in good data. yet, when trying to expose this information in the OData resource, something strange happens:
in web services, i try to open up page 7505 which populates the object name as ItemAttributeValueMapping and i set the service name to 'ItemAttributeValueMapping'. This is normal.
the system complains when i fail to specify that the object type is a page. so, i go back in the line and set the selection to "Page"
when i tab through to publish the change, the object name automatically changes to 'ItemAttributeValueTranslations'.
EDIT: 2021-06-15
After a lot of fiddling about, i finally reached a point where i decided that the only way to address this was to write an al query which would expose the appropriate value-item mapping information. there is a page which provides some source code for doing this:
github AL-Code-Samples
to get something out of the API, i had to use microsoft visual studio code. there are a few good videos on how to get this up and running to get a test app working for your business central instance (i used eric hougaar's videos: Getting started with Business Central AL Development).
when you have set up your app to connect to your instance by inserting your tenant and entering your credentials, you can modify the source code as below to create a query in your system.
query 50102 "<YOUR_QUERY_NAME>"
{
QueryType = API;
APIPublisher = '<YOUR_NAME>';
APIGroup = '<YOUR_APP_GROUP>';
APIVersion = 'v1.0';
Caption = '<YOUR CAPTION>';
EntityName = '<YOUR_QUERY_NAME>';
EntitySetName = '<YOUR_API_ENDPOINT_NAME>';
elements
{
dataitem(Item; Item)
{
column(No_; "No.")
{
}
column(Description; Description)
{
}
column(Unit_Cost; "Unit Cost")
{
}
dataitem(Item_Attribute_Value_Mapping; "Item Attribute Value Mapping")
{
DataItemLink = "No." = Item."No.";
column(Item_Attribute_ID; "Item Attribute ID")
{
}
column(Item_Attribute_Value_ID; "Item Attribute Value ID")
{
}
dataitem(QueryElement6; "Item Attribute")
{
DataItemLink = ID = Item_Attribute_Value_Mapping."Item Attribute ID";
column(Name; Name)
{
}
dataItem(Queryelement10; "Item Attribute Value")
{
DataItemLink = "Attribute ID" = Item_Attribute_Value_Mapping."Item Attribute ID",
ID = Item_Attribute_Value_Mapping."Item Attribute Value ID";
column(Value; Value)
{
}
column(Numeric_Value; "Numeric Value")
{
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
once this code gets successfully uploaded to your server and returning a page (you have to wait for it), you can then use specified query number to expose the data in the API by going to business central's "web services" and adding a 'Query' to item 50102 (or whatever number you use). the endpoint will automatically be populated and you can use it to send you back the necessary JSON which will show a product, with its attribute values.
hope that helps.
You should try with below endpoint:
/v2.0/tenant_id/enviornment_name/ODataV4/Company(company_id)/Items
I have some documents, how can use a view to get the document which have the same domain name for their email address. like all the document with #gmail.com or #yahoo.com, if endkey can get that results?
Here is what I wrote a view on map, But I do not think this is good idea
function(doc) {
for (var i in doc.emails) {
if (doc.emails[i].emailAddress.toLowerCase().indexOf("#yahoo.ibm.com")!=-1) {
emit(doc.emails[i].emailAddress.toLowerCase(), doc);
}
}
}
}
To make things clear, the endkey parameter is not looking for a suffix. Startkey and endkey are like the limits of keys to get. For example, you could get the document with the id 1 to the id 10 startkey="1"&endkey="10" .
In your case, you want to make a view that will group your documents by their domain name. I created a design document with a byDomain view. The mapping function looks like this :
function(doc){
if(doc.email){ //I used the document's property email for my view.
//Now, we will emit an array key. The first value will be the domain.
//To get the domain, we split the string with the character '#' and we take what comes after.
//Feel free to add more validations
//The second key will be the document id. We don't emit any values. It's faster to simply add
//the includes_docs query parameter.
emit([doc.email.split('#')[1],doc._id]);
}
}
Let's query all my documents to show you what I have
Request : http://localhost:5984/test/_all_docs?include_docs=true
Response:

As you can see, I got few minimalist documents with the property "email" set.
Let's query my view without any parameters
Request : http://localhost:5984/test/_design/emails/_view/byDomain
Response :
{"total_rows":3,"offset":0,"rows":[

Let's query only documents with that have the gmail.com domain.
Request : http://localhost:5984/test/_design/emails/_view/byDomain?startkey=["gmail.com"]&endkey=["gmail.com","\ufff0"]
Result :
{"total_rows":3,"offset":1,"rows":[

You can just use a simple map function for this:
function (doc) {
var domain = doc.email.split('#').pop();
// this logic is fairly hack-ish, you may want to be more sophisticated
emit(domain);
}
Then you can simply pass key=gmail.com to get the results you want from the view. I would also add include_docs=true instead of emitting the entire document as your value.
You can read more about views in the official CouchDB docs.
I am trying to create a new record using BS server script.
Since the process is taking place inside the BS, the context of Parent is not present, hence I am unable to get Parent Row_Id which I need to explicitly stamp against the child record being created for visibility.
Initially I tried to pass the Parent Row_Id from applet as a profile, but this fails when there are no records in the child applet, ie this.BusComp().ParentBusComp().GetFieldValue returns "This operation is invalid when there are no records present" as the "this" context is unavailable.
Any suggestions?
I was able to achieve the desired with the below code
sId = TheApplication().ActiveBusObject().GetBusComp("Q").ParentBusComp().GetFieldValue("Id");
if(this.BusComp().CountRecords() > 0)
{
sA = TheApplication().ActiveBusObject().GetBusComp("Q").GetFieldValue("A");
sB = TheApplication().ActiveBusObject().GetBusComp("Q").GetFieldValue("B");
}
sEntity = TheApplication().ActiveBusObject().GetBusComp("Q").Name();
It is for these reasons that Siebel provides Pre-Default settings at the Business Component Field level. If you wish to do this entirely through scripting, you will have to find the Active context, you have to know which BC is the parent.
Lets say you know that the Parent BC has to be Account. So
ActiveBusObject().GetBusComp("Account").GetFieldValue("Id") will give you the row id of the currently selected Account BC record. But do make sure that this script fires only in this context. So check the ActiveViewName to check this.
if(TheApplication().GetProfileAttr("ActiveViewName")=="Custom View")
{
//put the scripting here.

For a Tag model that I have in Ember-Data, I have 4 records in my store:
Tags:
id tag_name
1 Writing
2 Reading-Comprehension
3 Biology
4 Chemistry
In my code I have an array of tag_names, and I want to get a corresponding array of tag IDs. I'm having 2 problems:
My server is being queried even though I have these tags in my store. When I call store.find('tag', {tag_name: tag_name}), I didn't expect to need a call to the server. Here is all the code I'm using to attempt to create an array of IDs.
var self = this;
var tagsArray = ["Writing", "Reading-Comprehension", "Chemistry"];
var tagIdArr = []
tagsArray.forEach(function(tag_name) {
return self.store.find('tag', { tag_name: tag_name }).then(function(tag) {
tagIdArr.pushObject(tag.get('content').get('0').get('id'));
})
})
return tagIdArr;
When I console.log the output of the above code gives me an empty array object with length 0. Clicking on the caret next to the empty array shows three key-value pairs with the correct data. But the array is empty. I'm sure there is a simple explanation for this behavior, but I'm not sure why this is. I've used code similar to the above in other places successfully.
Find hits the server, but peek does not.
var tagsArray = ["Writing", "Reading-Comprehension", "Chemistry"];
return this.store.peekAll('tag').filter(function(tag){
return tagsArray.indexOf(tag) !== -1;
}).mapBy('id');

In several data structures with my application I have an attribute named "IsPrimary". One issue I am having is that with for each User they can only have 1 primary address but have multiple address. What I am trying to figure out is with in cf9's implementation of hibernate how can I update any existing record that has the attribute IsPrimary as true to false if a new record or updated record is saved with IsPrimary being true.
This is my existing save method
public UserAddress function save(required UserAddress)
{
var userAcc = entityLoadByPK('UserAccount', arguments.UserAddress.getUserID());
arguments.UserAddress.setUserID(userAcc);
entitySave(arguments.UserAddress);
return arguments.UserAddress;
}
you may do it at preInsert() if you like.
