[CLOSED] Selecting single relationship attribute with Query.select returns all relationships
1.4.2 I have collection with 3 relationships. I want to select only one of them but appwrite always returns all relationships.
select([\"$id\",\"$createdAt\",\"$updatedAt\",\"$permissions\",\"mediaThumbnail.$id\"])
returns (Sorry! dart map - should be understandable)
TypeScript
0 = {map entry} "$id" -> "64fe3b5ca83a1f7f0757"
1 = {map entry} "$createdAt" -> "2023-09-10T21:55:40.691+00:00"
2 = {map entry} "$updatedAt" -> "2023-09-10T22:34:16.739+00:00"
3 = {map entry} "$permissions" -> [_GrowableList]
4 = {map entry} "assignedToCategories" -> [_GrowableList]
5 = {map entry} "content" -> [_GrowableList]
6 = {map entry} "mediaThumbnail" -> [_Map]
7 = {map entry} "$databaseId" -> "main_database"
8 = {map entry} "$collectionId" -> "content_entry"
I selected mediaThumbnail relation, but content and assignedToCategories are returned as well
in comparison this select:
select([\"$id\",\"$createdAt\",\"$updatedAt\",\"$permissions\"])
returns
TypeScript
0 = {map entry} "$id" -> "64fe3b5ca83a1f7f0757"
1 = {map entry} "$createdAt" -> "2023-09-10T21:55:40.691+00:00"
2 = {map entry} "$updatedAt" -> "2023-09-10T22:34:16.739+00:00"
3 = {map entry} "$permissions" -> [_GrowableList]
4 = {map entry} "$databaseId" -> "main_database"
5 = {map entry} "$collectionId" -> "content_entry"
TL;DR
The user encountered an issue where selecting a single relationship attribute in Appwrite returns all relationships. The user provided examples using the `select` method. In the first example, selecting the `mediaThumbnail` relationship attribute also returns the `content` and `assignedToCategories` attributes. In the second example, selecting other attributes returns only those attributes and not the relationships.
This issue has been closed, and the reason provided is that queries are not available in relationships in Appwrite version 1.4.2. There is no solution provided in the support thread. 
It because queries are not available in relationship at the moment
