Get related data from Azure Function using SQLTrigger?

Question

Hi, I have an Azure function that is running a SqlTrigger. When the trigger fires, we get a list of SQLChange<CourseStudent>, and CourseStudent is defined by the model below:

    public partial class CourseStudent
    {
        public string StudentId { get; set; }

        public Guid CourseId { get; set; }

        public virtual Course Course { get; set; } 

    }

Is there any way to have the foreign-key related data (Course, in this case) populate so it can be read when reading the list of CourseStudent? I'm not sure if there is any config for this, but the documentation doesn't mention anything.

Answer from PG:

Currently no, not directly at least. Using an input binding would be an option - although that would require either setting up another function that the one with the sql trigger calls (passing it the appropriate information from the trigger) or using imperative bindings for C# functions to dynamically call the input binding.
