Please describe the expected behavior of the issue, starting from the first action.

Actual Behavior

Please provide a description of what actually happens, working from the same starting point.

Be descriptive: “it doesn’t work” does not describe what the behavior actually is – instead, say “the request returns a 400 error with message XXX”. Copy and paste your logs, and include any URLs.

Here is my test incident record, thanks for helping.

Im looking for a REST version and a Node JS SDK version of importing this json into the Backendless database.

Hi Chris,

The Deep-Save API requires that a schema is pre-created in the database. Have you already done that?

Ok - I have created a Person table and an Address table and have used deep-save to populate both tables using the JS SDK. Works well.
https://backendless.com/docs/js/data_deepsaveoverview.html

const person = {
name: ‘Bob’,
age : 30,
homeAddress: {
city : ‘aaaaa’,
country: ‘bbbbb’
}
}

If I change “homeAddress” to homeAddress12345" the save works but I dont get an error stating that “homeAddress12345” dont exist. Is there a way to be notified of missing tables using deep-save?

Also - If I run deep-save with a missing field (non relationship table) I get this error - as expected

message: “Deep save exception. Column ‘name2’ in table ‘Person’ does not exists. All tables and columns must be present in the database before a transaction is executed.”,

But for missing relation fields - i dont get any error.
