[SOLVED] Relationships IDs

[astral grail]

I have two questions with relationships.

1. How can I define an ID in the relationed item being added.

    .createDocument("645c032960cb9f95212b", "album", track.album.id, {
      name: track.album.name,
      href: track.album.external_urls.spotify,
      popularity: track.album.popularity,
      images: track.album.images?.map((image) => image.url) ?? [],
      artist: [{
          name: track.artists[i].name,
          href: track.artists[i].external_urls.spotify,
          popularity: track.artists[i].popularity,
          images: track.artists[i].images?.map((image) => image.url) ?? [],
          genres: track.artists[i].genres ?? [],
      }],
      track: [{
          name: track.name,
          href: track.external_urls.spotify,
          popularity: track.popularity,
          preview: track.preview_url,
          explicit: track.explicit,
          duration: track.duration_ms,
      }],
    })

With this code above how can I explicitly set the ID for Artist and Track.

2. How can I relate a new item to an existing item?

hi Kenny, so what you are trying to do here is creating a child document on the fly which actually auto-matically link with Parent Document so you don't need to explicitily link here

[astral grail]

Yea, but in another query at a later time I want to then relate a new item with an existing track.

[prime bane]

yes you can archive that you just use update

[bleak swift]

And pass an array of artist/track document ids

[bleak swift]

As for specifying an id, set the $id attribute to whatever you want the id to be

[bleak swift]

example:

{
    "level2": [
        {
            "$id": "level2",
            "level3": [
                {
                    "$id": "level3",
                    "level4": [
                        {
                            "$id": "level4",
                            "level5": [
                                {
                                    "$id": "level5"
                                }
                            ]
                        }
                    ]
                }
            ]
        }
    ]
}
