Discussion on GROQ query for articles with specific categories and subcategories.

3 replies
Last updated: May 24, 2023
This GROQ query should be fairly simple, right? 🙄
• Documents of type: "article"
✅ • Where category is set to "some guid"
✅ • And subCategories[] contains "some guid"
🤯 (this is my current struggle)
*[_type == "article" && 
  category._ref == "insert guid here" &&
  subCategories[]->_ref == "insert another guid here"
 ] {
  title
}

☝️ this query is my current not working draft ... can someone point me in the right direction? 🙏 🙂

try 
"insert another guid here" in subCategories[]->_ref
for the third part.

If 
subCategories
is an array of references, then it looks like there is no 
_ref
field in the objects that result from dereferencing those. So 
"insert another guid here" in subCategories[]._ref
, I suppose

Thank you both 🙏 
"insert another guid here" in subCategories[]._ref
