You're welcome! Yes, I believe that, as you have done, the key has to hold the full entity path, from the entity group root, through children, to the entity. If the entity is its own root (not in your case) then only one element is needed.
I believe that the key also has info about the app, so that the key is unique throughout BigTable throughout the world: app - [root] - [child] - ... - [child] - "end" entity. Here "[]" means prsent only if exists. I came across your problem a while ago when trying to retrieve entities by constructing their keys and then finding object by ID. I found out (by re-reading the right part of the GAE/J docs again properly) that full key chaining was required. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine for Java" group.
