Description
Hey. We're transitioning onto parse-server
. We had old code POSTing images to the REST API, immediately followed by POSTing data to another collection, with a pointer to that earlier image file.
When we were fully on Parse, before using parse-server
, we supplied data like this:
'imageObject': {
'name': data.name,
'__type': "File"
}
where only a name
and a __type
were necessary to define that relationship.
Once we moved to parse-server
, this code was breaking. It boiled down to this line which also looks for a url
. We needed to change out the data we're POSTing to something like this:
'imageObject': {
'name': data.name,
'url': data.url,
'__type': "File"
}
Maybe this information could be provided in migration docs, since we didn't see it there.
It might also be worth mentioning that we're now using the S3Adapter
to store our newly-created files in a bucket.
Thanks for everything! Overall, this migration is going far smoother than we could've expected.
