kotlin-asymmetric-object.rst

Asymmetric objects broadly support the same property types as RealmObject, with a few exceptions:

• Asymmetric objects can only be used in synced realms configured with Flexible Sync. However, you cannot create subscriptions to asymmetric objects.
• An AsymmetricRealmObject can contain EmbeddedRealmObject types, but cannot contain RealmObject types or other AsymmetricRealmObject types.
• AsymmetricRealmObject types cannot be used as properties in other Realm objects.

Additionally, asymmetric objects do not function in the same way as other Realm objects. You cannot add, read, update, or delete an asymmetric object from the realm. You can only create an asymmetric object, which then syncs unidirectionally to the Atlas database linked to your App with Device Sync. Realm then deletes this object after syncing.
