SUBTABLE field requires type and value.id

[the-red]

I generated type definition of SUBTABLE field. The type and value.id properties are required, which makes them difficult to use.

  Table: {
    type: 'SUBTABLE';
    value: {
      id: string;
      value: {
        text1: kintone.fieldTypes.SingleLineText;
        text2: kintone.fieldTypes.SingleLineText;
      };
    }[];
  };

I wish the type and value.id properties were no longer required.

  Table: {
    type?: 'SUBTABLE';
    value: {
      id?: string;
      value: {
        text1: kintone.fieldTypes.SingleLineText;
        text2: kintone.fieldTypes.SingleLineText;
      };
    }[];
  };

@the-red Thank you for reporting this! We are going to consider this. Could you describe your use case?

[koba04]

Changing these types optional also leads the usage inconvenient because it requires to check whether the type exists or not and disables to infer using discriminated unions. If the use case is a type for updating, it seems to be a good option to add another type for it

Sorry for the late response.

As you say, the use case is a type for updating. To add record, I'd like to write as follows. But type error occurs.

It's hassle to write the following.

In a similar case, when I put a number in a field of type Number, I got an error. It would be nice if you could prepare different types for the reference and update systems 🚀

    price: kintone.fieldTypes.Number

@the-red Thank you for your clarification! We'll consider having a solution for this.

We've merged dts-gen into js-sdk, so this issue has been transferred.
