What parameter should I set to make mutate() optionally return the created data?
I would like to create a new resource and navigate to the edit view for that resource.
When I call useCreate's mutate() function, onSuccess could optionally contain the data I need to go() to the edit view.
However, by default my data provider performs the create without a following select. I would like to signal to my data provider to optionally select the created resource.
What is the canonical way to pass this option in Refine?

Hi @imedemi. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:

Based on the provided extracts, there isn't a direct way to signal the data provider to select the created resource after the
create
operation. The useCreate
hook's mutate
function doesn't seem to support such a parameter.
However, you can handle this in the onSuccess
callback of the mutate
function. Here, you can navigate to the edit view of the newly created resource. The data
parameter of the onSuccess
callback should contain the data of the newly created resource.
Here's an example:
In this example, go
is a function that navigates to the given path. You need to implement this function according to your routing library.
Please note that the actual structure of the data
object depends on your data provider. In this example, it's assumed that the data
object has a data
property which is an object representing the newly created resource, and this object has an id
property.
For more information, refer to the useCreate documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/api-reference/core/hooks/data/useCreate).

Hey @imedemi, this capability depends on your data provider. In custom ones you can use the
meta
property to pass additional data to the data provider and inside the data provider, you can use that value to select or not after create.
BTW you need to use the pessimistic
mutation mode (default one) to have the response in the onSuccess
method, otherwise it will be undefined
.
For example we have meta.select
in @refinedev/supabase
that you can use in useCreate
and other similar hooks to do a select query after the mutation.extended-salmon•13mo ago
Thanks @aliemirs for your thoughtful answer. I know exactly what to do now.
