Context:
I have a custom component ( autocomplete with list of options from external api ) that allows me to select an option based on an API request. After the selection, the body of the option becomes part of the structure and looks like this (where ‘type’ is a field of the custom component):
Grapql response:
{
"data": {
"newsCollection": {
"data": [
{
"id": "23",
"attributes": {
"type": [
{
"id": "DSDSD",
"name": "DSADASDASD",
"name2": "DSADASDASD",
},
{
"id": "DSDSD3",
"name": "DSADASDASD",
"name2": "DSADASDASD",
}
]
}
}
]
}
}
}
When I try to make a GraphQL request to selectively get the fields of this component, or to filter by nested fields ( name, name2, id
), I run into a problem that GraphQL doesn’t know these fields exist because it identifies the component as JSON.
Example:
query Test(
$filters: NewsFiltersInput
$pagination: PaginationArg = {}
$sort: [String] = []
$publicationState: PublicationState = LIVE
){
newsCollection(
filters: $filters
pagination: $pagination
sort: $sort
publicationState: $publicationState
) {
data {
id
attributes {
type {
..... I can't identify fields here 😞
}
}
}
}
}
Is there a way to solve this problem in Strapi?
