Assets Object mapping not working with children of inherited object type

Hi all,

I struggle with the following issue when importing data in assets from a postgres db.

I can't manage to import references to an inherited object type.

My scheme tree:

  • Abstract Objecttype "All OL" 
    • child objecttype "OL1"
    • child objecttype "OL2"  (Attribute should be "Parent OL" = OL1)
    • child objecttype "OL3"  (Attribute should be "Parent OL" = OL2)

"All OL" has an attribute "ParentOL" as object reference to "All OL" (checked option "include all children") .

My issue:

I have three different import configurations for each child one. Each child has a parentol in the database, which I want to see in the Parent OL. 

The object mapping to the attribute in the import configuration looks like this: 

Datalocator = parentol |  Assets Attribute -> ParentOL | Object mapping AQL ->"OL ID" = ${parentol}

 

I tried it with a normal attribute that just refrences to the "parent ol" directly and not uses the inherited objecttype and that works well. 

 

Anyone an idea what I do wrong? Or is it not working at all? 

 

I solved it with an automation and a script, but I want to understand why it's not working.

Cheers,

Leonie

Hi all,

here's an update. I found the mistake I made in the setup. 

The referenced attribute was not indexed. With the following setup it works!
