❔ QuestionController
Hello, i have a question regarding API structure.
I have two classses, Item and Store. I created CRUD endpoints for both. Lets say i want to be able to return a store including all the items related to that store, and also be able to to POST a store with items. Would you create a seperate controller for these endpoints, for example StoreIemController containing PostStoreWithItems/GetAllStoresWithItems or use existing Store/ItemController?
Thanks in advance 🙂

Wouldn't that be a good fit for nesting?
Like GET /Store/{storeId}/Items
Same for post
Souns like a good idea! I have a endpoint for bith Store and item, lets say i have a webpage that allows the user to add a new store and the stores items. Would you use two seperate calls(POST store and POST Item) or would you create anew POST-endpint? In that case it would be only one endpoint instead of two but i would have to seperate the POST-body to be able to insert it to the Store and Item table in the DB 🙂

In general I'd stick to the REST pattern
