Hi Team,

 

Need assistance on accomplishing association between things of different templates(that doesnot have inheritance between them) may be primary and foreign key relation or must use a dataTable to achieve this? 

 

Can any one pls suggest

Best answer by PaiChung

Thing1 would have a property that helps it to 'maintain' what other Thing(s) it 'relates' to

so I could do something like

Things[me.myRelatedThing].someValue to access a property value in that related Thing.

Often times we use a Network for this.

Not sure if there is an actual hierarchical relationship

else you can use a property in either Thing to 'point' to the other Thing
