Polymorphic Embedded Resources?
@Zach Daniel sorry to dig up an old post, but what's the lowest-pain way of doing this? I'm trying to do something similar where a resource has an embedded resource which could be 1 of ~5 types. The types are fairly complex (they each represent external API data from a different provider)
Will a union type cause more headaches than, say, having 5 attributes; leaving them all nil except for the one that matches the type we want to use.
I'm aiming for an easy story for things like validations and form editing.
