AshArchival and FK relationships deleted record still referencing a foreign key
Hi everyone,
We are using ash_papertrail and ash_archival and encountered an issue.
When soft deleting records, we run into problems if the deleted record is still referenced in a foreign key (FK) relationship. Normal deletions prevent this issue, but it seems that archival deletes do not follow the same behavior.
Is there a way to check for related records before performing an archival delete to prevent these errors?

Deleting with ash archival should not cause things with a foreign key relationship to the deleted record to have an error. Could you describe more about the error you’re seeing or what you’re doing? Have you run mix ash.codegen after adding the extension?

Thanks.
