Hi all,
In order to fix the visualisation of the already selected branches, I have
tried to modify models/entity.py, particularly the get_nodes method, since
it is that which calls the labels of concepts already stored in the
database (see here for the modifying method:
https://github.com/azerbini/eamena2/blob/app/models/entity.py). Currently,
I am only trying to get get_nodes() to retrieve the right prefLabels, so I
am not modifying the data, just displaying it via print statements. I have
had to perform a UUID validation of entity.value in order to stop
get_preflabels_from_valueid from attempting to run on entity.value when the
latter is a Polygon type. When I modify a form, on POST submission, all
seems to work fine. Here are some of the outputs I get on the server:
Entity label pre prefLabel: <class 'arches.app.models.entity.Entity'>:

As you can see, get_preflabels_from_valueid has correctly located my new
label value. However, I then get an ES indexing problem:
RequestError at

Why is the indexing called, and when? Why does it fail, considering that I
have not changed anything at all, just printed to console?
Thanks for your help,
