Question

Can you use d/with inside a Cloud transaction function? It's not clear from the the docs if the db passed to the tx fn is one created by d/with-db.

Answer 1

Found this bug and the discussions says it has been fixed https://forum.datomic.com/t/d-with-not-working-inside-tx-fn/1243

So it seems, that it should be possible.

I can't seem to get it to work with dev-local though, so difficult to test code:
