Empty Result on Generic Action with graphql_unnested_unions

I have a generic action on a resource that returns a union type. If I mark types with graphql_unnested_unions then the type’s fields disappear in the response. This happens for both embedded resources and typed structs. Removing or untagging the type in graphql_unnested_unions wraps the type in a value and the fields appear fine under that.

Example Union definition:

defmodule Api.Example.UnnestedUnion do
  use Ash.Type.NewType,
    subtype_of: :union,
    constraints: [
      types: [
        embedded: [
          type: Api.Example.Embedded
        ],
        typed_struct: [
          type: Api.Example.TypedStruct
        ]
      ]
    ]

  use AshGraphql.Type

  @impl true
  def graphql_type(_), do: :unnested_union

  @impl true
  def graphql_unnested_unions(_constraints), do: [:embedded, :typed_struct]
end

My generic action:

action :array_unnested_embedded_union, {:array, Api.Example.UnnestedUnion} do
  run fn _, _ ->
    {:ok,
     [
       %Ash.Union{
         type: :embedded,
         value: %Api.Example.Embedded{title: "Hello World"}
       }
    ]}
  end
end

Running a graphql query against a generic action that returns an array of a union like above seems to return:

{
  "data": {
    // Without graphql_unnested_unions
    "nestedEmbeddedUnion": [
      {
        "value": {
          "title": "Hello World"
        }
      }
    ],
    "nestedTypedStructUnion": [
      {
        "value": {
          "title": "Hello World"
        }
      }
    ],
    // With graphql_unnested_unions
    "unnestedEmbeddedUnion": [
      {}
    ],
    "unnestedTypedStructUnion": [
      {}
    ]
  }
}

The typing in the graphql schema appears correct and all the fields show up correctly, they just don’t seem to come back properly when queried if they are unnested. I created a small repo with a reproduction. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong in my code?

Definitely seems like a bug. Please open an issue and I will look into it :person_bowing:
