Got stuck on something stupidly simple,, I have been looking at this code for an hour, and I can't get it right. I have a global collection in Directus, that is translated to a bunch of languages, when trying to get the content in an example next.js app I only get the default text, not the translated one, this one in french...):

async function getGlobals() {
    const languageCode = 'fr-FR';
    const { data } = await directus.items('global').readByQuery({
        fields: ['*'],
        deep: {
            translation: {
                _filter: {
                    languages_code: {
                        _eq: languageCode,
                    },
                }
            }
        }
    });
    return data;
}
```.

Looks like you're missing translations.<translated_fields> in your fields list

Oh, yeah, thanks... but still nothing, do I do something wrong with the filters maybe?

async function getGlobals() {
const languageCode = 'fr-FR';
const { data } = await directus.items('global').readByQuery({
fields: ['', 'translations.'],
deep: {
translation: {
_filter: {
languages_code: {
_eq: languageCode,
},
}
}
}
});
return data;
}

@abstract saffron What is the actual result you're getting versus what you expect?

[abstract saffron]

I am getting the "original" content (en-UK), instead of the translated one.

[stone sorrel]

Do you have some result snippets with that? can't see any naming errors by description (perhaps your field isnt called languages_code or something)

[abstract saffron]

It looks like this:

[abstract saffron]

Is the reference on the translatiuons wrong?

[stone sorrel]

You're only getting the IDs there, didint you add translations.* to ur fields?

[abstract saffron]

Adding the filter it looks like this:

I am sure doing something wrong here 😄

[stone sorrel]

at least that looks like the filter works, now try adding that field

[abstract saffron]

Sorry, now following that...

[stone sorrel]

fields: ['*', 'translations.*'], this part

[abstract saffron]

That gives what it should. I am lost 😁

Oh wait... I am stupid. Sorry.
