I'm trying to fetch the current logged in user via my REST API and then set it as a property of the ApplicationController. This is how I'm trying to do it: <pre><code>App.ApplicationController = Ember.Controller.extend({ init: function() { this._super(); var self = this; App.User.findCurrent().then(function(user) { self.set('currentUser', user); }); } }); App.User = Ember.Object.extend({}); App.User.reopenClass({ findCurrent: function() { return $.getJSON('/api/v1/users/current').then( function(response) { return response.user; } ); } }); </code></pre> When I check the Chrome network tab, I see there's a call to the API and the JSON is returned, but when I try to access e.g. <code>{{currentUser.name}}</code> in my application template (or a partial of it), it doesn't return the name. No errors are given as well. But in the application template it doesn't return it. What am I missing? Thanks! Edit When I create another controller, e.g. <code>HelpController</code> and visit <code>/help</code>, then <code>{{currentUser.name}}</code> does return the username: <pre><code>App.HelpController = Ember.Controller.extend({ needs: ['application'], currentUser: Ember.computed.alias('controllers.application.currentUser') }); </code></pre> Edit 2 Sorry, I forgot to mention that I'm actually trying to use <code>{{currentUser.name}}</code> from a partial (<code>{{partial 'sidebar'}}</code>), but that shouldn't change anything, because that's the same scope, right? Edit 3 I noticed something very strange. When I call <code>{{currentUser.name}}</code> in my application template (which is not what I want btw), then it also works in the <code>{{partial 'sidebar'}}</code>. Edit 4 As per request: <pre><code>DEBUG: Ember.VERSION : 1.0.0-rc.6 ember.js?body=1:361 DEBUG: Handlebars.VERSION : 1.0.0-rc.4 ember.js?body=1:361 DEBUG: jQuery.VERSION : 1.10.0 </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
