Question

AvadiariesTable.php

$this->belongsTo(\'AlumnesGrups\', [
        \'foreignKey\' => \'alumnes_grup_id\',
        \'joinType\' => \'INNER         


        

Answer 1

Use find('list') and use valueField for the field you want to show and keyField for its value:

$alumnesGrups = $this->Avadiaries->AlumnesGrups->find('list', [
    'keyField' => 'alumne.name', 
    'valueField' => 'alumne.name'])
->contain(['Alumnes', 'Grups']) 
->where(['Grups.id =' => 1]) 
->order(['Alumnes.name' => 'ASC']);
