[jira] [Updated] (ATLAS-5163) Relationship Search API approximateCount returns pageLimit value instead of total relationship count
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ATLAS-5163?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Aditya Gupta updated ATLAS-5163:
--------------------------------
Description:
*Jira Summary:* Fixes a bug in Relationship Search where the {{approxCount}} field was incorrectly calculated based on the requested {{limit}} value, rather than the actual total number of relationships found.
Relationship Search API was supposed to tell you the *total number of related entities* (the {{{}approxCount{}}}), even if you only asked for a small set of results on one page (using the {{limit}} parameter).
*The problem was* that the system would often lie about the total count. Instead of giving you the true total (say, 30), it would just give you the value you set for the {{{}limit{}}}.
h3. Consider Total Relationship = 30(hive_table_db)
h3. Example of the Bug (Total is 30)
* If you searched and set the page {{limit}} to {*}5{*}, the API incorrectly reported the total count ({{{}approxCount{}}}) as {*}5{*}, even though there were actually 30 relationships.
* If you set the page {{limit}} to {*}29{*}, the API reported the total count as {*}29{*}.
h3. Example After the Fix (Total is 30)
* Regardless of whether you set the page {{limit}} to {*}1{*}, {*}10{*}, or {*}35{*}, the API now correctly and consistently reports the total number of relationships ({{{}approxCount{}}}) as {*}30{*}.
