api platform error on post Invalid value provided (invalid IRI?)

3.9k views Asked by At

Working in a vuejs app with axios I have some data structured as follow:

{
  ...
  surgeries: [],//array of object
  patientDiseases: [
   {  
  date: a javascrtipt date,
  disease: /api/diseases/#id //This is a valid IRI provided by the api in a select
}
  ] //array of object
}

When I post this data set api-platform's response is Invalid value provided (invalid IRI?)

Here is the stack trace

As you can see the IRI is present in the request in every object of the array but api-platform still raising an error of Invalid IRI.

The entities are configured with cascade persist option

Do you have any advice on how could I resolve this situation?

Thanks in advance

have you been able to find the reason of this behaviour? I am just facing probably the same issue. 

$ composer info
api-platform/core                        v2.3.5             Build a fully-featured hypermedia or GraphQL API in minutes
symfony/serializer                       v4.2.2             Symfony Serializer Component

If (in your example) surgeries is ManyToMany relation, you can easily use IRI and Entity gets created. If patientDiseases is OneToMany (in fact it is ManyToMany too, but with extra attributes), using of IRI inside of object collection returns Exception above. And the object normalization looks weird:

["object", "App\\Entity\\Disease"], -> $object
["integer", 0],                     -> $attribute, but here it uses key 0 from array/collection instead of 'disease'?!
["string", "\/api\/diseases\/4"],   -> $value

After many attempts I have been able to find just a workaround. The entity with expected name here PatientDisease has to be defined as ApiResource with at least mandatory GET itemOperation (which can be easily a dummy controller returning always "not found"). Then ApiPlatform probably understands better the format of object collection and new embedded entity gets successfully created.

I do not know whether this is an expected behaviour or a bug. But I hope this may help also others :-)
