Describe the bug

After adding a function using CLI and successfully push with amplify push, I cannot update my data models from amplify studio. I got below message

An error occurred while processing your request: Deployment failed because your app backend contains function. Amplify Studio only supports API, Auth, and Storage deployments. Please use the Amplify CLI to deploy updates.

Expected behavior

I should be able to create and update Data Model from amplify studio even if function exists.

Reproduction steps

1. Add function using amplify add function
2. Push the changes
3. Go to Data menu of amplify studio and add or update a Data Model
4. You should get the message I am getting

I am facing this exact same issue. I thought it was because I added field "subscriptionsInheritPrimaryAuth" to the amplify/backend/cli.json , however upon removing it I am still faced with the same error as in this post.

[RitvarsFr]

is there a way to add those Data models through CLI and will that work?

[RitvarsFr]

I got this:

An error occurred while processing your request: Deployment failed because your app backend contains analytics, function, geo, notifications. Amplify Studio only supports API, Auth, and Storage deployments. Please use the Amplify CLI to deploy updates.

[RitvarsFr]

My workaround this was:
create DataModels in Visual Editor -> Click on GraphQL Schema ->Copy Schema -> paste into amplify/backend/api//schema.graphql -> save the schema.graphql file and -> amplify push

Hey folks, thank you for reaching out. The message observed is the expected behavior as Amplify Studio does not support deploying resources such as functions, project with overrides, and custom resources enabled, etc. To continue deploying your resources, you need to utilize Amplify CLI to pull the project locally. Please refer to the documentation providing information on pulling the project locally.
