Topic: Inconsistent behaviour of data service
Hi,
I've experienced some inconsistent behaviour of the data service. Given the following surveys:
Survey 1 exists
Survey 2 is deleted
Survey 3 does not exist
Loading survey 1 via the data service works fine.
Loading survey 2 via the data service gives the following results
/index.php/services/data/survey/2 - returns the survey as json - no delete flag is set in the result
/indicia/index.php/services/data/survey/2?mode=xml - returns the survey as xml - no delete flag is set in the result
/indicia/index.php/services/data/survey/2?view=detail - returns an empty json array
/indicia/index.php/services/data/survey/2?view=detail&mode=xml - returns an xml error document with the message: "general_errors.Undefined offset: 0"
Loading survey 3 via the data service gives always this error message "general_errors.Unknown Exception: Attempt to access existing record failed - website_id 1 does not match website for survey id 3"
I would expect for GET Requests for /indicia/index.php/services/data/survey/2 and /indicia/index.php/services/data/survey/3 always the same answer. Either HTTP 404 (not found) which would be the most REST like, or an empty json array / xml document.
Do you use the current behaviour in you code, or am I free to write a patch?
Regards
Daniel
