Discussion: Any plan to make Connection Send API support circular reference JSON structure?
See original GitHub issueThe connection Send API is using native JSON.stringify which does not support circular structure.
Tried to remove cyclic reference the object before calling the API. However, that impacts the performance heavily for large data object.

No, the JSON api very deliberately doesn’t support circular graphs indeed, just like it doesn’t support classes, maps, sets, etc etc. Serializing these kind of data structures would yield a high performance impact on a very intensively used api, so we don’t plan to support this.
Any specific reason why you would wan’t to send cyclic data?
Okay. In this case, I agree that it is better to handle the issue in plugin level. Thanks.
