Issue with annotation "cds.on.insert "

[Rwitte]

Hello,

I am facing currently an issue with the annotation "@cds.on.insert". As can be seen in the code below I am using it to fill the property userAttribute of the entity Foo on creation with a specific attribute of the pseudo variable user.

entity Foo : cuid, managed {
    userAttribute : String @cds.on.insert : $user.attr;
}

When running it locally the response of the POST request contains correctly the assigned value. However, when retrieving later on the dataset the field "userAttribute" is empty and ofc the field is also empty on the sqlite DB.

Shouln't this work out of the box or have I gotten the documentation wrong?

Best regards,
Raphael

According to this, I'd say it's not supported without some extra configuration on your part

Hi - do you know where that documentation went? that #users header doesn't exist on the page you linked any longer.
