plone.restapi 4.0.0

Creating a new document with this data gives me an error.

The error message is not consistent with the data used.

This might be a side effect of the fact that the given list of UIDs does not exist as content object inside the Plone site (e.g. some referenced content is not imported during a migration).

@zopyx just to understand this correctly. You are pushing a document that contains UIDs in the relatedItems attribute that do not exist, correct?

I'd expect plone.restapi to raise an exception (with a better error message of course), do you agree?

correct - because as part of a migration you can only set all relatedItems properly after all content is in place.

There should be an error like "Object(s) referenced through UID/IntID/ .... could not be resolved/not found"
