How to access results from REST service?

[tomsoderlund]

Can I somehow immediately access the results from the REST service?

E.g. the example:

dispatch(rest.actions.entry({id: 1}));

If my REST server returns the ID of the new entry, how can I use that in my frontend app?

Hi @temnoregg dispatch(rest.actions.entry({id: 1})).then((data) => ...)

Thank you @lexich! So simple...

A follow-up question, @lexich:

1. I've figured that the transformer function should always return the complete (sub-)state, right?
2. It's also the results from this transformer function that I receive in .then((data) => ...) above, right?

I have a problem right now in a "delete" action; my REST service returns the ID of a deleted item, my front-end wants to have this ID, but since the transformer function needs the complete item list, this ID is lost.

@tomsoderlund I don't understand problem, may be you need to save this ID in another place. Can you show your case in details
