Question #1142

API - issue with references and files
Added by Bernhard Koschiček-Krombholz almost 5 years ago.
Updated over 4 years ago.
Description
The Api.get_file functions won't get result with reference entities.
Update:
I tested it with source + file and reference + file. Both show the file as the relation but only the source lists it as depictions. That's because with reference the file is linked in the opposite direction so the get_file functions doesn't "find" it.
Question to Stefan: is this
- the correct behavior (link is valid and it's ok that the file isn't listed as depiction at the reference) Stefan says: YES
- or is the link in the wrong direction (but as far as I remember it was on purpose)? Stefan says: NO
- or should the file be listed as depiction in the GeoJSON of the reference? Stefan says: NO
Suggestion from Stefan:
- When accessing the reference from the API the files are listed as CRM relations (reference - refers to - file) anyway? If no, this should be implemented somehow.

Are image file reference relation equaly to e.g. actor file relations? (They are referenced inverse, so should we use them for depictions?)
- Target version changed from 204 to 5.0.0
Is this still relevant and/or important for the 5.0.0 release? Delete if not relevant anymore, otherwise please comment.
It is relevant, if not for the 5.0.0 version, then for the next version.

@ Berni: thanks for feedback it helps with the release. I expanded the description to a question that Stefan might be able to answer.
@ Stefan: now it's officially your ticket ;) in case this question can't be answered easily please move it to the next target version and we look at it together when we get the chance.

Dear Stefan,
Thank you for your answer. Since it is the normal behavior, that the file of a reference is in relations, everything will stay how it was.
- Category set to API
- Target version deleted (
5.0.0)
Thanks both for clearing that up.
