[Appwrite Cloud 1.8.0] Many-to-One Relationship Issue (Teacher ↔ Classroom)

Hi team, I’m running into a problem with relationships after updating to Appwrite Cloud v1.8.0.

I have a one-way many-to-one relationship setup like this:

• Teacher collection

name (string)

• Classroom collection

name (string)

teacher (relationship field → one Teacher document)

The idea is that:

Each Classroom row should reference one Teacher.

Multiple Classroom rows can reference the same Teacher.

This worked fine in earlier versions, but after upgrading to 1.8.0:

The Teacher reference is not linking correctly.

And when I try to create a new Classroom row with a Teacher reference, it throws an error instead of saving in the cloud ui.

It looks like a regression, unless something has changed in how relationships should be configured in 1.8.0.

Could you please confirm if this is a bug introduced in 1.8.0 or if I need to adjust my schema setup? 🙏

@JamshedAlamQ are you passing in the teacher object or the ID? I was have an issue too. Once i just passed in the ID of the parent in your case the teacher ID it worked for me

We have a known issue with creating rows that have relationship attributes. Fix is merged, but pending release. Probably will be tomorrow.

Besides that, relationships have changed in 1.8. If you're using an SDK meant for 1.8, you'll need to specifiy which relationships you want to resolve. See https://appwrite.io/blog/post/announcing-opt-in-relationship-loading
