Hello, I had the same problem like you had, and as far as I know, this is not supported in custom relationships. You have a few options though. 1) Arbitrary SQL with a ResultSource::View see https://metacpan.org/pod/release/RIBASUSHI/DBIx-Class-0.08250/lib/DBIx/Class/Manual/Cookbook.pod#Arbitrary-SQL-through-a-custom-ResultSource __PACKAGE__->result_source_instance->view_definition(q[ SELECT t.* FROM yourtable t LEFT JOIN single_tasks s ON t.task_id = s.id AND s.site_id = ? ]); And then something like $rs->search( {},{ bind => [ 100 ] }); 2) The unsupported, deprecated and probably DANGEROUS "from"-attribute see https://metacpan.org/pod/release/RIBASUSHI/DBIx-Class-0.08111/lib/DBIx/Class/ResultSet.pm#from $rs->search({},{ alias => 'yourtable', from => [ { yourtable => 'yourtable' }, [ { single_tasks => 'single_tasks', -join_type => 'left'}, { 'yourtable.task_id' => { '=' => \'single_tasks.id'}, 'single_tasks.site_id' => 100, ], ], }); You can probably also use UNIONs (DBIx::Class::Helper::ResultSet::SetOperations) but may also be very nasty.
