             Summary: Unable to link entity sets during write
                 Key: OLINGO-924
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OLINGO-924
             Project: Olingo
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: odata2-core
            Reporter: Gauri Kalra


The OData end-point (SAP SuccessFactors, in this case) has two entity sets linked by a navigation property e.g. EmployeeTime linked to User via userIdNav property. When trying to insert a row into the former, Olingo sends the following request(only an excerpt from the request):

"userIdNav":{"__deferred":{"uri":"https://apisalesdemo8.successfactors.com/odata/v2/EmployeeTime('cgrant1')/userIdNav"}}

The operation fails with error:

bad valueString [('cgrant1')/userIdNav] as part of keyString [('cgrant1')/userIdNav]

The following is expected as part of the request(modified the above manually):

"userIdNav": { "__deferred": { "uri": "https://apisalesdemo8.successfactors.com:443/odata/v2/User('cgrant1')" } }

The entry gets inserted successfully when the above is sent as part of request. The navigation property in this case is marked "required". Hence, it is not possible to remove it from the request.
