Subject: [OASIS Issue Tracker] (ODATA-1126) Remove a Reference to an Entity (public review comment c201710e00005)
Ralf Handl created ODATA-1126: --------------------------------- Summary: Remove a Reference to an Entity (public review comment c201710e00005) Key: ODATA-1126 URL: https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/ODATA-1126 Project: OASIS Open Data Protocol (OData) TC Issue Type: Improvement Components: URL Conventions Affects Versions: V4.01_CSD03 Reporter: Ralf Handl Fix For: V4.01_CS01 Public review comment https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/odata-comment/201710/msg00005.html The document "OData Version 4.0, Part1: Protocol" specifies in section "11.4.6.2 Remove a Reference to an Entity": For collection-valued navigation properties, the entity reference of the entity to be removed MUST be specified using the $id query string option. It would be nice if instead of or at least additional to using the $id query option it would be allowed to use the key after the navigation property to specify which entity is referenced. Example: DELETE http://host/service/Customers(1)/Orders/$ref?$id=../../Orders(4711) could be expressed as DELETE http://host/service/Customers(1)/Orders(4711)/$ref This avoids a mandatory query option, handling of nested URLs, and parsing of relative or absolute URLs including verification that the URL is fitting; last but not least it is shorter and easier to understand.
