Description

John Iacona opened DATAREST-1343 and commented

I want to use a string-based external id, so set up a custom EntityLookup configuration as in the documentation.

This works for GETPOST, and DELETE, but PUT fails with a ConversionFailedException. For full reproduction setup, please see linked stack overflow question


Affects: 3.1.4 (Lovelace SR4)
