Issue Summary

Insight REST API does not fetch Inbound references. Only Outbound references are retrievable.

REST API mentions referenced object in the Response section, but only works for Outbound references.

Steps to Reproduce

• Create 3 object Types, for example:
  • Servers
  • Application
  • Location
• In Server object type, create an outbound reference to Location object Type
• In Application object Type, create an attribute 'Server', Type Object pointing to Servers object type
• Create some dummy objects

• Use either of the following REST API

/rest/insight/1.0/iql/objects?objectSchemaId={id}&iql=objectType=Servers

/rest/insight/1.0/iql/objects?objectSchemaId={id}&includeAttributesDeep=2&iql=objectType=Servers

Expected Results

Inbound and outbound reference should be fetched.

Actual Results

Only outbound reference are fetched.

Nothing about Inbound references.

Workaround

1) Use an IQL to find all inbound referenced Objects.
However, if there are many Server objects, it will be required to call REST API as many times as objects are which could be an issue

The IQL would look like the following:

{{host}}:{{port}}/rest/insight/1.0/iql/objects?objectSchemaId={id}&iql=object HAVING outR(Key = {ServerKey})

2) Server object Type could have an outbound reference to Application object type, but we are storing the same data in multiple objects which is not very efficient.
