Agreed, ADS is more flexible. But for simple things it's convenient to be able to go through GraphQL since it's less work, especially since it is hooked into SHACL validation and the Teamwork change history.

FYI ADS is also using SHACL validation and the change history. That's how the Preview button on the Script Editor panel is implemented.

I'll either use ADS or generate URIs externally in the meantime.

Thanks!

    Hello Matt,

    correct, this isn't supported at the moment, and you're right it
    should work in principle. I have recorded an internal development
    ticket (TBS-4783) for a future version.

    Meanwhile, if that's an option, you could use JavaScript/ADS
    scripting for similar purposes, with a similar syntax. ADS
    includes a function graph.newURI(type) that will look at the URI
    construction rules.

    leturi = graph.newURI(g.City);
    let newCity = g.createCity({
        uri: uri,
        prefLabel: 'Hagen',
        altLabel: 'Das Tor zum Sauerland'
    })

    The advantage here over GraphQL is that you can actually DO
    something with the generated URIs because you can assign them to
    variables and use those variables in other places, e.g. to define
    further references:

    someCountry.capital = newCity;

    GraphQL would be a bit of a one-way-street where you can create
    instances but then would need to make additional queries to
    process the newly generated instances. In the case of
    auto-generated URIs you wouldn't even know what those generated
    URIs are.

    Hello-

    I've been working with the GraphQL API to programmatically create
    and modify resources. If I create a new resource and do not
    provide a URI, I expected that the generated identifier would be
    a URI created using the Asset Collection's configured URI
    Construction Rules in the Manage tab. However, it created a blank
    node instead. I couldn't find a way in the documentation to have
    it use the URI Construction Rules instead. Is that an option
    somewhere, or must the caller be responsible for generating a URI
    if a blank node is not desired?

    Thanks!
