| json_api:expand-foreign-keys | json_api | expand-foreign-keys | Expanding foreign key references | Datasette can detect foreign key relationships and resolve those references into labels. The HTML interface does this by default for every detected foreign key column - you can turn that off using ?_labels=off . You can request foreign keys be expanded in JSON using the _labels=on or _label=COLUMN special query string parameters. Here's what an expanded row looks like: [ { "rowid": 1, "TreeID": 141565, "qLegalStatus": { "value": 1, "label": "Permitted Site" }, "qSpecies": { "value": 1, "label": "Myoporum laetum :: Myoporum" }, "qAddress": "501X Baker St", "SiteOrder": 1 } ] The column in the foreign key table that is used for the label can be specified in metadata.json - see Specifying the label column for a table . | ["JSON API"] | [] |
