Hey there,
I originally asked this on the Slack help channel but no-one was able to help so I thought I’d try my luck here. I was wondering if someone can shed some light on how to fetch component data on a deeply-nested relationships:
eg. We have a collection type Program that has a one-to-many relation to another collection Unit and that has a one-to-many relation to a collection called Lesson - the Lesson collection type is the lowest level we need, and it has a repeatable component field on it among other data, but I can’t seem to fetch it.
So when I use a query like:
{
programs {
units {
lessons {
id
activities {
title
}
}
}
}
}
(where “activities” is the repeatable component) - it will return the lesson itself (see below), but won’t populate any of the content/components within it such as activities - I’ve tried many variations of a custom service population query but can’t seem to get it right.
{
"data": {
"programs": [
{
"units": [
{
"lessons": [
{
"id": "1",
"activities": null
},
{
"id": "2",
"activities": null
},
{
"id": "3",
"activities": null
}
]
}.
]
}
]
}
}
I read that Strapi has a limitation on how many levels deep it will resolve for performance reasons, but is there any way for me to populate the repeatable components/other content that exists on the lesson type using a custom query in the service, or would I need to do a secondary call of some kind? Thanks in advance
