Project: QGIS

Version: 3.28

Feature: Automatically add related tables when adding layers from GDAL datasets with embedded relationship information

For GDAL data formats with embedded relationship information, whenever a table is added QGIS is now able to discover relationships and immediately add all the related tables to the current project (if they don't already exist). Additionally, when adding these related layers QGIS will automatically configure the corresponding QGIS relationships.

This works for all formats which support the GDAL relationship API, which include:

  • Geopackage (via the related tables extension)
  • ESRI FileGDB/ OpenFileGDB
  • ESRI Personal Geodatabase
  • SQLite/ Spatialite formats.
