external identifiers
|
||
|
|
||
|
> string identifier stored in `ir.model.data`, can be used to refer
|
||
|
> to a record regardless of its database identifier during data imports
|
||
|
> or export/import roundtrips.
|

> External identifiers are in the form {samp}`{module}.{id}` (e.g.
|
||
|
> `account.invoice_graph`). From within a module, the
|
||
|
> {samp}`{module}.` prefix can be left out.

> Sometimes referred to as "xml id" or `xml_id` as XML-based

mixing literal content and computed content (expressions): content
|
||
|
between `{{` and `}}` is interpreted as an expression and
|
||
|
evaluated, other content is interpreted as literal strings and
|
||
|
displayed as-is
