[Request]: Couting relations using the Entity Service

Open WalkingPizza opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

Summary

The current documentation about population in the Entity Service does not mention the count property at all.

Why is it needed?

Most people don't know that you can count relations through the Entity Service and have to rely on less-than-ideal solutions like using the count method of the Query Engine API, which has to be run once per parent.

Suggested solution(s)

Edit the Advanced populating portion of the documentation to display the count property.

Thanks @WalkingPizza for catching this, we'll get it updated.

Closing as "duplicate" (or more precisely, "included in" #1672). It's added to our backlog and we'll do better with the upcoming Document Service API (which will deprecate the Entity Service API).
