Relation fields in TypeOrm Embedded Entities are always null

Could you try to update User to:

@Entity()
export class User {
  @PrimaryGeneratedColumn('uuid')
  id: string;

  @Column(() => Address)
  address?: Address;

  @ManyToOne(() => State, { cascade: ['remove'] })
  state: State;

  // Add this
  @Column()
  stateId: string
}

[IvanKudryavskyReq]

I added

@Column()
stateId: string

in user.entity.ts - no change
In address.ts - no change either

The response looks the same as in the last screenshot

Then please create a example repo or add it as a test case to the examples.

I see, did not know this was possible:

@Entity()
export class User {
  @Column(() => Address)
  address?: Address;
}

But in the repo you gave the ManyToOne was inside Address, so adding the following in address.ts will fill the stateId field inside:

  @Column()
  stateId: string;

This package does not handle the case you have here, every "object" in the main should be a relation if you want to go deeper. Since the field addressStateId is added to the root one you could keep address as is but add that field to the entity and then add the relation from user -> state to the user type.
