bug

### How to reproduce this bug? As per the weaviate documentation one should be …able to cross reference from a multi tenant to a non multi tenant. Run the below script ``` import random import string from weaviate.classes.config import Property, DataType, ReferenceProperty import weaviate import weaviate.classes.config as wvc from weaviate.classes.tenants import Tenant from weaviate.classes.query import QueryReference client = weaviate.connect_to_local() # Create collection if (client.collections.exists("JeopardyCategory")): # delete collection "Article" - THIS WILL DELETE THE COLLECTION AND ALL ITS DATA client.collections.delete("JeopardyCategory") # Replace with your collection name # Create collection if (client.collections.exists("JeopardyQuestion")): # delete collection "Article" - THIS WILL DELETE THE COLLECTION AND ALL ITS DATA client.collections.delete("JeopardyQuestion") # Replace with your collection name category = client.collections.create( name="JeopardyCategory", description="A Jeopardy! category", properties=[ Property(name="title", data_type=DataType.TEXT) ], replication_config=wvc.Configure.replication(factor=1), ) jeopardy_question= client.collections.create( name="JeopardyQuestion", description="A Jeopardy! question", properties=[ Property(name="question", data_type=DataType.TEXT), Property(name="answer", data_type=DataType.TEXT), ], references=[ ReferenceProperty( name="hasCategory", target_collection="JeopardyCategory" ) ], replication_config=wvc.Configure.replication(factor=1), multi_tenancy_config=wvc.Configure.multi_tenancy(enabled=True, auto_tenant_creation=True, auto_tenant_activation=True) ) # Create tenant on JeopardyQuestion jeopardy_question.tenants.create( tenants=[ Tenant(name="tenantA"), Tenant(name="tenantB"), ] ) # Insert objects to the collection def get_random_string(length): # choose from all lowercase letter letters = string.ascii_lowercase result_str = ''.join(random.choice(letters) for i in range(length)) return result_str # print("Random string of length", length, "is:", result_str) # Add category to JeopardyCategory jeopardy = client.collections.get("JeopardyCategory") category_uuid = jeopardy.data.insert({ "title": get_random_string(10) }) questions= jeopardy_question.with_tenant(tenant="tenantA") questions.data.insert({ "question": "question" + get_random_string(10), "answer" : "answer"+ get_random_string(10) }, references={"hasCategory": category_uuid}, # e.g. {"hasCategory": "583876f3-e293-5b5b-9839-03f455f14575"} ) response = questions.query.fetch_objects(return_references=QueryReference(link_on="hasCategory", return_properties=["question", "answer"])) for o in response.objects: print(o.properties) client.close() ``` ### What is the expected behavior? No error should be displayed and user should be able to query the reference property in a multitenant collection. ### What is the actual behavior? ``` weaviate.exceptions.WeaviateQueryError: Query call with protocol GRPC search failed with message <AioRpcError of RPC that terminated with: status = StatusCode.UNKNOWN details = "explorer: list class: search: resolve cross-refs: build reference cache: build request cache: fetch job list: index "jeopardycategory": class JeopardyCategory has multi-tenancy disabled, but request was with tenant" debug_error_string = "UNKNOWN:Error received from peer {created_time:"2024-07-01T19:38:14.318273+01:00", grpc_status:2, grpc_message:"explorer: list class: search: resolve cross-refs: build reference cache: build request cache: fetch job list: index \"jeopardycategory\": class JeopardyCategory has multi-tenancy disabled, but request was with tenant"}" >. ``` ### Supporting information https://weaviate.io/developers/weaviate/manage-data/multi-tenancy#cross-references ### Server Version 1.25.6 ### Code of Conduct - [X] I have read and agree to the Weaviate's [Contributor Guide](https://weaviate.io/developers/contributor-guide) and [Code of Conduct](https://weaviate.io/service/code-of-conduct)

Our team will look into this as soon as they have capacity!
