workspaceQueryBinding

This reference describes the full structure of workspaceQueryBinding. Paths include nested objects, list items and conditional branches. A branch selected by kind, contract or mode only admits its own properties.

Structure and values

Field	Options / expected values	Description
[kind=entity-id].kind	"entity-id"	Required. Selects the variant and the properties admitted in this branch.
[kind=entity-id].definitionPath	string; min length 1; max length 600; /^workspace\/[a-z0-9-]+(?:\/surface\/[a-z0-9-]+)*$/u	Required. Exact path of a definition in the Model; this is not a record instance ID.
[kind=field].kind	"field"	Required. Selects the variant and the properties admitted in this branch.
[kind=field].field	closed object	Required. Defines field for this object. Observe the type, variants and bounds in the Options column.
[kind=field].field.definitionPath	string; min length 1; max length 600; /^workspace\/[a-z0-9-]+(?:\/surface\/[a-z0-9-]+)*$/u	Required. Exact path of a definition in the Model; this is not a record instance ID.
[kind=field].field.fieldKey	string; min length 1; max length 120; /^[a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z0-9]*$/u	Required. Key of a Field declared on the referenced Surface definition.
[kind=literal].kind	"literal"	Required. Selects the variant and the properties admitted in this branch.
[kind=literal].value	string; max length 4000 OR number OR true | false OR null	Required. Effective value interpreted according to the enclosing type and discriminant.

Reading the contract

A path ending in [] describes each list item; {key} describes each dictionary value. The ↻ marker refers to the same recursive expression. Closed objects reject additional properties. Semantic validation denotes an additional check: matching a type does not make a reference, permission or transition valid. References must resolve in the Model and the current user context.

An older variant cannot accept properties belonging to a newer variant. The compiler checks the version and consistency of the complete Model.

Structural example

This fragment passes the schema for this section. Its business references must be defined in the enclosing Model.

{
  "kind": "entity-id",
  "definitionPath": "workspace/reference/surface/character"
}
