Deepinserts not working

jordi79

I have been trying to create an api page with subpage that allows deepinserts, but have failed in doing so. I have seen many other working examples, but could not get mine to work. I have been looking at https://github.com/manjusree16/AL-Demos/blob/master/CustomAPIorderExample/Table/Call_API.http and was able to duplicate his work. But when I try to do the same on a SalesInvoice, I fail to do so.

My code:

page 50715 apigrpSalesInv
{
    APIGroup = 'apigrp';
    APIPublisher = 'apipub';
    APIVersion = 'v2.0';
    ApplicationArea = All;
    Caption = 'apigrpSalesInv', Locked = true;
    DelayedInsert = true;
    EntityName = 'apigrpSalesInv';
    EntityCaption = 'apigrpSalesInv', Locked = true;
    EntitySetName = 'apigrpSalesInvs';
    EntitySetCaption = 'apigrpSalesInvs', Locked = true;
    PageType = API;
    SourceTable = "Sales Header";
    SourceTableView = where("Document Type" = FILTER(Invoice));
    ODataKeyFields = "No.";
    Extensible = false;
    ChangeTrackingAllowed = true;

    layout
    {
        area(Content)
        {
            repeater(General)
            {
                field(no; Rec."No.")
                {
                    Caption = 'No.';
                }
                field(sellToCustomerNo; Rec."Sell-to Customer No.")
                {
                    Caption = 'Sell-to Customer No.';
                }
                field(postingDate; Rec."Posting Date")
                {
                    Caption = 'Posting Date';
                }
                part(apigrpSalesInvLines; apigrpSalesInvLine)
                {
                    ApplicationArea = All;
                    Caption = 'apigrpSalesInvLines', Locked = true;
                    EntityName = 'apigrpSalesInvLine';
                    EntitySetName = 'apigrpSalesInvLines';
                    SubPageLink = "Document Type" = field("Document Type"), "Document No." = field("No.");
                    //Multiplicity = Many;
                }

            }
        }
    }
}
