Nested Data Grids in Document Template

0
Dear Guys,   I'm trying to create a Data Grid containing another Data Grid in one of its columns in a Document Template to be able to render data from two Entities A and B with a many-to-many association. According to the documentation, this should be possible with the Entity A as a data source for the outer Data Grid and a Microflow returning a list of objects of Entity B in each row as a data source for the inner Data Grid. However (in Studio Pro 10.10.0), I'm not allowed to put neither another Data Grid inside the first one, nor a Data View. Putting a Data Grid inside a Data View is indeed possible, likewise nesting Data Views, but these options do not solve my issue.   Does anybody have in idea how this can be solved?   Thanks, Andy

The document template editor is outdated and not supported with new development.

A data grid inside a data grid isn't possible and won't in the future.

 

What you describe of possible fetching referenced data, you are correct. Though the nesting itself isn't possible.

 

However: the new way of document generating is using the document generation module. Which allows you to create document templates using the page editor. Which allows you to nest lists in lists.

 

Hope this solves your challenges
