unexpected sources-api relationship

by infinitewarp 4 years ago

In this recording, I did the following with sources-api:

create a source
create an application (A)
create an application (B)
create an authentication that references application A
create an application_authentication (A) that references application A
create an application_authentication (B) that references application B

Observe that all of the objects were created successfully. Naively, I would not expect to be able to create the second application_authentication here since the authentication still references the first application. Since cloudigrade does not support that flow, the second application fails setup, as can be observed in the response around 1:04.

Some questions I have:

What is the generally expected behavior of the system in this case?
What is the primary intended use case for this behavior?
Should sources-api allow multiple application_authentication objects connecting one authentication to multiple authentications?
Does the direct relationship between authentication and application actually mean anything since application_authentication objects can define different relationships?
