How to pass relay Id to where filter of a node?

[sshquack]

Hello! I'm trying the HC workshop completed code sample from Github repo. One interesting query where I try to filter sessions without any id, it works as expected. But when I filter with an Id (which is encoded according to the Relay global identifier) it does not match the expected Id type.

If I understand this correctly, relay Id's are meant to be opaque and the client is not supposed to decode. In the above example, when I filter like

query GetSessions {
  sessions(
    where: { track: { id: { eq: "VHJhY2sKaTE=" } } }
  ) {
  }
}

it throws an error:

The specified value type of field `eq` does not match the field type.

because HC says it is expecting an Int! but it sees a Relay ID! type. How do I make the where clause to the node accept the relay ID!?

Thanks in advance!

@michaelstaib @tobias-tengler I'd appreciate some guidance on this questions. Currently I'm decoding the relay Id on the JS client (which feels wrong). Please let me know if I need to open a bug report for this. Thanks!

Thank you @PascalSenn and @tobias-tengler This is now resolved.

Filter input types needs to be explicitly mentioned.

Using code first:

            .AddQueryType()
            .AddType(new FilterInputType<Track>(x =>
                x.Field(y => y.Id).Type<IdOperationFilterInputType>()))

or Using annotation first:

public class Track {
    [ID]
    public int Id { get; set; }
...
...
}
