Question

Association with self is greyed out in the consumed Data Hub entity properties

2

Hi. I’m trying to publish an entity with a self-association to Data Hub. There’s no problem with that. However, when I drag this entity to the consumer app domain model the association is not added and if I try to add it manually via the Associations tab it’s greyed out. I also tried Studio 9.10.1 and it fails there too.

Hi Ilya,

Interesting question. The short answer is that this is currently not supported. You also see that if you hover over the self-referencing association in the Data Hub pane. I will ask around if I can get some more information on this.

Edit: consuming self-referencing OData associations will be possible when we support one way navigation properties, which is not yet the case. I don’t know yet when we have support for that, but it’s something we are thinking about.

Regards,

Paul
