uselist or useSelect
i am calling a table on strapi and trying to use useSelect but I need to filter for multiple <Select />. I can do it by using multiple useSelect with filters but I wanted to do only one call. is there a solution?

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

Yes, you can make a single API call when using
useSelect
with multiple <Select />
components by leveraging the filters
property. The useSelect
hook internally uses the useList
hook which passes the filters to the dataProvider.getList
method.
Here's how you can approach this:
If you need different filtering logic for different selects, you might need to use separate useSelect
calls. However, if your goal is to reduce API calls for the same data with the same filters, you can:
1. Use a single useSelect
call and share the result
2. Consider using React Query's caching capabilities (which refine uses under the hood)
For more complex scenarios, you might want to use the meta
property to specify fields to fetch in a single call, especially when working with GraphQL data providers Link to GraphQL usage.
Remember that useSelect
is designed to work with the refine data provider architecture, so the exact implementation might depend on your specific Strapi setup and data requirements.

@kapa.ai yeah but each select has a different filter. in your solution both select has the same data
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books:

You're right, my previous solution wouldn't work for different filters across multiple selects. In this case, you would need to use multiple
useSelect
hooks, one for each select component with its own filter.
For different filters on different selects, you'll need separate API calls:
This is the approach used in the issue tracker example from refine:
Create Your Easy Customizable Internal Issue Tracker With Refine and Supabase
Unfortunately, there's no built-in way to make a single API call for multiple selects with different filters in refine. Each useSelect
hook will make its own API call to fetch the specific data it needs based on its filters.
If you're concerned about performance, refine uses React Query under the hood which provides caching, so subsequent requests for the same data won't trigger additional API calls if the data is already cached.

@kapa.ai if i use useList instead of useSelect, does it work?

Yes, you can use
useList
instead of useSelect
to achieve your goal of making a single API call for multiple select components with different filters. The useSelect
hook actually uses useList
under the hood, as shown in the documentation:
Refine React Invoice Generator
With useList
, you can fetch the data once and then manually filter it on the client side for your different select components. Here's how you could implement this:
This approach allows you to make a single API call with useList
and then create multiple select components with different filtering logic applied client-side.
Keep in mind that if your dataset is large, you might want to consider whether server-side filtering (multiple API calls) would be more efficient than fetching all data and filtering on the client.
I hope this helps with your implementation!

@kapa.ai something is missing i keep having this error :Warning: Invalid attribute name:
0
Error Component StackLet me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books:
----------------------
I see you're encountering an error with the attribute name
0
when trying to implement the solution with useList
. This error typically occurs when you're trying to render a component with invalid props or attributes.
When working with the Select component in Ant Design after using useList
, you need to ensure you're formatting the options correctly. The error suggests there might be an issue with how you're structuring the options for your Select components.
Here's a corrected implementation:
Key points to check:
1. Make sure your data structure has the properties you're trying to access (like title
, id
, etc.)
2. Add a fallback empty array (|| []
) to prevent rendering issues when data is undefined
3. Ensure you're using the correct property names for the Ant Design Select component (label
and value
)
If you're still encountering issues, it might be helpful to check the actual structure of the data you're receiving from the API by adding a console.log(data?.data)
to see what properties are available.

@kapa.ai still the same error 😦
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books:
----------------------
I'm sorry you're still encountering the same error. Let's troubleshoot this more specifically based on the knowledge sources.
This error with attribute name
0
could be related to how the data is being processed or rendered. Let's try a different approach based on the refine documentation:
Based on the error you're seeing, there might be an issue with how the Select component is receiving its props. Some additional things to check:
1. Make sure you're not spreading an array directly into the Select component
2. Check if your data structure contains numeric keys that might be causing the 0
attribute error
3. Try using the optionLabel
and optionValue
properties if you're working with a custom data structure, as mentioned in the useSelect documentation
If you're still facing issues, it might be helpful to share more details about your data structure or consider using the useSelect
hook with custom rendering for the Select component.
