Implementation Reference
- src/quickbase/client.ts:242-248 (handler)Core implementation of quickbase_create_relationship: sends POST request to QuickBase /relationships endpoint with parent/child table IDs and foreign key field ID.
async createRelationship(parentTableId: string, childTableId: string, foreignKeyFieldId: number): Promise<void> { await this.axios.post('/relationships', { parentTableId, childTableId, foreignKeyFieldId }); } - src/index.ts:333-349 (handler)MCP server handler for the tool call: validates args, calls QuickBaseClient.createRelationship, and returns success message.
case 'quickbase_create_relationship': if (!args || typeof args !== 'object') { throw new Error('Invalid arguments'); } await this.qbClient.createRelationship( args.parentTableId as string, args.childTableId as string, args.foreignKeyFieldId as number ); return { content: [ { type: 'text', text: `Relationship created between ${args.parentTableId} and ${args.childTableId}`, }, ], }; - src/tools/index.ts:71-75 (schema)Zod input schema definition for validating tool parameters.
const CreateRelationshipSchema = z.object({ parentTableId: z.string().describe('Parent table ID'), childTableId: z.string().describe('Child table ID'), foreignKeyFieldId: z.number().describe('Foreign key field ID in child table') }); - src/tools/index.ts:366-378 (registration)Tool registration in quickbaseTools array, including name, description, and input schema for MCP discovery.
