Is it possible to use same entity in separate box? #537

I have Video entity, and i want to create two boxes, one of historyVideosBox and second likeVideosBox, is it possible to create separated box under the same entity? I may have more boxes that I need to create on the same entity (such as watchLaterBox) so it is very useful if it's possible to create separate boxes under the same entity

I think object box stopped the support, the issues not active for a long time and also in StackOverflow nobody answer

Typically there are (at least) two ways how to model this:

Have a "VideoCollection" entity, especially if you want to have additional properties for a collection. Then use relations (1:N) to connect it with "Video" entity
Have a "type" or "tag" property for each Video object. Then, you can query for each type individually.

Hope that help to get you started in the right direction on how to model your data.
