Cannot create association definition with itself

Developers — Thu, 24 Nov 2022 18:15:40 GMT

Hi, not so long time ago I was able to create associations between to entries of the same custom object type. I was testing a functionality using it on my Sandbox account, and now that its time to implement this change I cannot do it on my Production account. Why I'm not able to create the association between two custom objects of the same type anymore? Is there a workaround?

I still have the associations types working on the Sandbox and I'm able to create new associations with it.

I'm trying to create it with :/crm/v3/schemas/{objectTypeId}/associations
example body:

{ "fromObjectTypeId": "2-3444025", "toObjectTypeId": "2-3444025", "name": "project_to_project" }

Response:

{ "status": "error", "message": "Cannot create association definition with itself: 2-6286287", "correlationId": "0566b846-bc06-4a67-9955-50e2abf16480", "context": { "objectTypeId": [ "2-6286287" ] }, "category": "VALIDATION_ERROR", "subCategory": "ObjectSchemaError.CANNOT_ASSOCIATE_OBJECT_TYPE_WITH_ITSELF" }
