Pim-community-dev: 2.3.19 API - Search variant product by a parent and access to a family of a product model

[FabienSalles]

Hi,

I had 2 issues :

1. if you have a product model and want to retrieve all related variant products, you can't.
2. If you retrieve a product model by the API and want to know the family of this product model, you also can"t. You just have the variant family.

I had to override akeneo :

1. override parameters of 2 services and a normalizer for the first issue
2. override the API ProductModelNormalizer for the second

But I don't understand why we can't do this by default in the Akeneo API. Is-there a reason ?

Same issue here...
Using the API, I'm trying to get all children of a product model and I can't... Here is what I found:

• similar bug: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/51258851/akeneo-api-getting-children-product-models
• once I've removed the check, I have no result (instead of 85), and I have no result in product grid => maybe linked to https://github.com/akeneo/pim-community-dev/issues/8134 ?

Same issue here..Its strange that the parent is not supported by default in Akeneo API

+1 to add urgently!

absurd! not to have the variations of a "product model" (in the API response):
"product model"> "variations" children products

OR

absurd! not being able to search for the children of a parent product:
?search={"parent":[{"operator":"IN","value":["796"]}]}

AND

API option to display only variations attributes :
"Display All level specific attributes"

I believe this has since be available in Akeneo 3.1 via AncestorIdFilter?

https://github.com/akeneo/pim-community-dev/pull/10205/files

Is it wishful thinking that this will be back-ported to v2?

Hi akeneo users,
