JSON.stringify()JSON.parse()h

05/27/2018, 9:07 PMThat’s not what I’m talking about. Something that conceptually accomplishes this effect:
Copy code
createItem({
profile: {
connect: {
user: {
connect: {
id: SOME_ID
}
}
}
}
}, info)Sam Jackson

05/27/2018, 9:21 PMPlus i think you can't connect nested records, you can use connect inside create

05/27/2018, 9:21 PMJust explore schema in playground and you will find out everything how it works 🙂
