Given I re-use getEditedEntityRecord, it would trigger the getEntityRecord resolver for every record id in the list.
@youknowriad or @oandregal do you know why this happens when we already technically got all the records in the able using useEntityRecords. Is it because we are not triggering a finishResolution for each record as part of that call?

That's probably true.
What are our options? Should we use getEntityRecords instead of getEntityRecord in getEditedEntityRecords
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Actually I stand corrected, the finishResolution does work correctly. The requests I am seeing are OPTIONS calls triggered by the canUser selector for getting the permissions: https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/blob/trunk/packages/core-data/src/resolvers.js#L524-L533

We can run permissions selector after items are resolved. This way we can avoid dispatching a permission request for each item.

I can try, but I am skeptical that would work. Given the individual record calls are not triggered because they are resolved by the getEntityRecords call.
Cause would it be enough to check permissions just for the postType? or stick with checking for every record.

Ok, so the problem was that I was passing the postIds in as strings into the permission call which re-triggered the requests. Although it had already been resolved prior by the data for the DataViews list.
I updated the above in this commit: 6972c79 to follow the same format as this hook: https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/blob/trunk/packages/core-data/src/hooks/use-entity-records.ts#L158-L204
Where we get the records first, and then get the list of ids from the actual records ( instead of relying on the parsed ids ). This seems to fix the trigger for additional OPTIONS request.

It should. The getEntityRecords selector will try to resolve permissions for each entity when possible (ref #64504). However, we had a race condition because it called both selectors simultaneously.

Maybe we should normalize IDs before passing them to selectors.

Yeah not a bad plan, with the current changes I suppose we are doing a form of normalizing by relying on the ID type that the entity record has.

Remove the ?? [] and handle this outside of the useSelect.

Small fix, the getPostsPageId() and getHomePage()?.postId actually return strings, so allowSwitchingTemplate always returned true.

Should we make getHomePage return the right type?

Meaning an integer? It seems like in some of the other logic you were already depending on it being a string:
Similar scenario with the
getPostsPageId that explicitly converts it to a string:
Instead of converting it to an integer above, maybe I should just keep the postId as a string?

If I'm not wrong, the "posts" REST API returns post Ids as integers, except for templates and template Parts. So IMO, we should stay consistent with that. When the post type is "template" or "template part" use string ids, otherwise integer ids.
There might be some type casting we need to do at the route levels, because urls always give strings.
WDYT?

Yeah I agree we should stay consistent, and happy to stick with When the post type is "template" or "template part" use string ids, otherwise integer ids..
Would it help to have a sanitize function for this that includes the postType and uses the above logic?
Things may get a bit confusing in functions like getHomePage (

page or wp_template so the postId will likewise be either a string or integer. Which in a way I see why you piped it through normalizePageId to convert it to a string.

Let's make this new selector private for now.
