Hi,
is it possible to access DB from service layer?

    Yes with Propel::getConnection() . But it depends in which application your service layer runs and therefore is not a good idea to use the DB in the service.

    Service layer is meant to wrap 3rd party libraries and to implement functionality that is shared between Yves/Glue and Zed, while in the standard setup only Zed provides a DB access.

    So in general if you have a DB access that's a strong indicator that you should not put that code in the service layer but into Zed instead and call it from Yves/Glue via the Client layer through Zed Gateway Controller endpoints

    You are right, but it is a code that I have to deal with 😅

    It turned out the business requirement did not need that exactly so we were safe this time 😄
