Overview

Note: #32400 must be merged first.
https://lab.civicrm.org/dev/core/-/issues/5799
It's not currently possible to import an EntityReference custom field by anything but an ID.

Before

Import organization name "Default Organization" to an organization EntityReference custom field fails.

After

Succeeds.

Comments

I let the scope creep and tried to implement the TODO of making the code for event ID and campaign ID generic. This led me to the bug fixed in #32400.

As a side effect, this gives a better error message when a field has an invalid value. I mentioned one example on the lab.c.o ticket but there's another one in the test I changed.

// @todo - make this generic - for fields where getOptions doesn't fetch
// getOptions does not retrieve these fields with high potential results
if ($fieldName === 'event_id') {
// @todo - it would be faster in most cases to retrieve and cache all potential results.

It might be worth mentioning that the 'most' here has been determined in the past to exclude event_id on sites with lots of events

It would be nice if we used metadata like "prefetch" instead of hard-coding that sort of thing.
