ya I tried their other example from apollo docs:

dataIdFromObject: o => o.id

same error 😕

I have a feeling it’s the way I have my networkInterface configured

Sorry i can’t help more, I’m developing with angular, so i actually don’t have dataFromObject 😕

no problem, I’m getting closer. Looks like my updateQueries was malformed, have at least a different error now 😄

It’s quite complicated to be hournest

can you leave out the optimistic response for now?

i think @nilan ‘s advice is good in general, I’ve learned to add it as sugar coating because it really restricts the data as well after it gets entangled into it.

for sure, but for a lot of the stuff I’m doing it will be pretty beneficial to have that feedback. I almost have it figured out. I’m getting it to add the optimistic update, and I see the UI update, but then it runs it again for some reason then errors and removes it haha

alright simple smile

Haha @tmoney that has been my biggest hurdle!!!!

It’s soo hard to debug. try console log the optimist response and the mutation result, make sure they are 100% identical

I get this error when the returned response is actually not the same as the optimistic one. It can be a field like

published: true

which in the returned one is

published: false

and then it behaves like this

oh geez I think it’s calling it again one it gets back the results of the POST

using the results from the POST

ya so they need to be the same like you’re saying

Yeah it looks like 2 calls! I thought the same for hours until i realised that the first one is the optimstic and the second is the actual response

guys thanks so much… I’ve finally done it… hahaha

at least I actually understand it a lot better now 😉

Sweet @tmoney that was a killer for me to understand haha

I’m glad i could help

@emilrmoeller huge help thank you

@tmoney is your name connected to the korean tmoney-card?

just realized i’ve seen that name before hehe

haha no just first name starts with T, and has been my gamertag for a while now

haha alright! then a bonus info: T-money card is a travel card in south korea for taking public transport hehe

haha ya I think I’ve used the logo as an avatar before cause that was what popped up when I googled images for tmoney haha

great to hear @tmoney! I had some issues with updateQueries/optimisticResponse as well. nice that you worked it out
