What are version links?

[mustafa_jafar]

Version entities can have links with link types that have version as input or output types.

Currently, “products” page doesn’t display these links like the “overview” page.

But, you can see them when querying version entities in GraphQL explorer.

Version Links Automation

Currently, in the pipeline we create Generative and Reference version links. to point out INs and OUTs. And, you can see them in GraphQL as follows:

query MyQuery {
  project(name: "project_name") {
    version(id: "version_id") {
      links {
        edges {
          linkType
          name
        }
      }
    }
  }

also, from python as in the example below:

Assuming you are looking for published product versions that are related to an approved workfile.
You can use “links”.
e.g.
Here’s one of my published workfiles and as you can see it’s in my publish directory. I’m just adding this image to prove that this id is for a published workfiles.

and when running this snippet in the console window ayon-recipes/get_links_of_a_version.py at 927455274884255aec5657c6403f0af8689b76fb · MustafaJafar/ayon-recipes · GitHub

You’ll be able to see loaded products (in) and published products (out).
These are the links of my workfile version id shown earlier.
