Hi!
I was trying out this API: https://pr-ark-codegen-1646.specs.preview.cogniteapp.com/v1.json.html#tag/Instances-(New)/operation/byExternalIdsInstances.
When i try to Retrieve a node by external id by giving source details as well, it works fine for a single View-ID pair. But when i try to do for more than one, I’m getting empty response.
Example: Say Id1 belongs to View1, and Id2 belongs to View2.
Querying with (Sources : View1, items : id1) as well as (Sources : View2, items : id2) gives correct response as expected. But when I try (Sources : [View1,View2], items : [id1,id2]), i get empty response. I was hoping it would provide information on both Id1 and Id2
Solved
Retrieve nodes/edges by their external ids API

Hello, I’d like to close this. The api is meant to enable you to query nodes which could be part of multiple views so the API response behaved as expected.
In your example, if a node instance was part of X86 AND avocet space, you would get results.
