Description

Make sure these boxes are checked before submitting your issue -- thanks for reporting issues back to Parse Dashboard!

  • [x ] You're running version >=2.1.4 of Parse Server.

Environment Setup
Steps to reproduce

Pointers render with a link to the object its pointer to, unless that pointer is in an array.

[{"__type":"Pointer","className":"Connection","objectId":"8vCiwc7J1T"},{"__type":"Pointer","className":"Connection","objectId":"HHv9Oa6qFE"},{"__type":"Pointer","className":"Connection","objectId":"LTRsJIYBIH"}]

It would be nice if the pointers in an array rendered and linked to the object its pointing to as well.

Logs/Trace

Note: If you get a browser JS error please run npm run dev. This will provide source maps and a much more useful stack trace.

Research direction

Reproduce the reported array of Parse Pointer objects in the dashboard, using npm run dev if browser errors need source maps. Trace the dashboard rendering path for pointers inside arrays and compare it with single-pointer rendering. Done means each pointer in the array renders as a link to its referenced object.
