[Request]: How to increase relations depth in strapi API response?

[diriy]

Summary

I use Strapi for building API for my small app. In a model, I have the following entities:

Article, Article Translation, Tag, Tag translation. One Article has Many Article Translations. Each Article Translation has Many Tags. Each Tag has Many Tags translations.

My problem is that when I make a GET-request to Article, I don't receive Tags translations. I suppose they are too deep for Strapi. If I just make a GET-request to Tag or to Tag Translation, the response is correct.

How can I increase the depth of relations responses?

Why is it needed?

Because this way it will be clear how to use Strapi fully with deep requests inside.

Hello,

Thank you for opening this issue, and sorry for not replying earlier. The documentation team, unfortunately, didn't have time to focus on issues before now.

Sorry, we are no longer maintaining the Strapi v3 documentation, except for security-related issues, as the EOL (end of life) for Strapi v3 is due at end of 2022 (see Security file for more information).

We would suggest v3 users to use the various migration resources below to upgrade projects from Strapi v3 to Strapi v4:

• Code Migration Guide and/or Codemods project
• Data Migration Guide and/or Data Migration Scripts
• Plugin Migration Guide

Once done, you can use the populate parameter in your requests to populate relations.

For now, I will mark this issue as closed, but if you see the same issue in the Strapi v4 documentation, please feel free to open a new issue.

Thank you!
