### What?
Custom auth collections default `useAsTitle` to `id`.
### Why?
It is more expected for auth collections to search on email or username.
### How?
Defaults useAsTitle to `username` if loginWithUsername is used, else
`email`. Can still be overridden by setting a custom `admin.useAsTitle`
property.
- Adds missing types, especially the `Where` type. Will be helpful for
people to see that they can type their queries like that
- Mention pnpm first and prefer pnpm > npm > yarn throughout docs
- Add `payload` to function arguments in examples to discourage people
from doing `import payload from 'payload'`
- PNPM => pnpm, NPM => npm
- Fix some typos

Fixes#9830. Continuation of #9755 and #9746. Instead of automatically
appending TLDs to the `admin.preview` and the `livePreview.url` URLs, we
should instead ensure that `req` is passed through these functions, so
that you can have full control over the format of this URL without
Payload imposing any of its own formatting.
Adds the missing tests to the `needs:` dependency array for `all-green`
step in CI so that all-green doesn't pass if these tests fail or are in
progress
```
- build-templates
- tests-types
- tests-type-generation
```
### What?
`@lexical-html` is missing from the `lexical-proxy` exports.
### Why?
To allow `@lexical-html` functionality to be used without needing to
install the package separately.
### How?
Adds `@lexical-html` to the `lexical-proxy` exports.
Fixes#9792
As proposed here
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/9782#issuecomment-2522090135
with additional testing of our types we can be more sure that we don't
break them between updates.
This PR already adds types testing for most Local API methods
6beb921c2e/test/types/types.spec.ts
but new tests for types can be easily added, either to that same file or
you can create `types.spec.ts` in any other test folder.
The new test folder uses `strict: true` to ensure our types do not break
with it.

🤖 Automated bump of templates for v3.5.0
Triggered by user: @denolfe
Co-authored-by: github-actions[bot] <github-actions[bot]@users.noreply.github.com>
### What?
Previously, the create-payload-app install would properly update the env
vars in the new created `.env` file but kept outdated env vars in the
`.env.example` file.
I.e
If selecting a `postgres` DB for the blank or website template:
`.env` --> `DATABASE_URI` -->
`postgres://postgres:<password>@127.0.0.1:5432/test-cpa`
`.env.example` --> `DATABASE_URI` -->
`mongodb://127.0.0.1/payload-template-blank-3-0`
### Now
`.env` --> `DATABASE_URI` -->
`postgres://postgres:<password>@127.0.0.1:5432/test-cpa`
`.env.example` --> `DATABASE_URI` -->
`postgres://postgres:<password>@127.0.0.1:5432/test-cpa`
### What?
* Exposes to `payload` these functions: `sanitizeSelectParam`,
`sanitizePopulateParam`, `senitizeJoinParams`.
* Refactors `sanitizeSelect` and `sanitizePopulate` to
`sanitizeSelectParam` and `sanitizePopulateParam` for clarity.
* Moves them from `@payloadcms/next` to `payload` as they aren't related
to next.
### Why?
To use these functions externally, for example in custom endpoints.
### What?
Previously, `initCollapsed: true` `array` fields would auto collapse
when typing in their respective inputs while in the create new view.
### Why?
This was due to the fact that we were only checking if `preferences`
existed in `form state` to handle the current state of the array row and
then falling back on the `initCollapsed` prop if `preferences` didn't
exist.
This was a problem because during create - `preferences` do not exist
yet. As a result, the state of the array row would keep falling back to
collapsed if `initCollapsed` was set to `true`.
### How?
To fix this, we now check the actual form state first before falling
back to preferences and then falling back to the initCollapsed prop
value.
Fixes#9775
### What?
Enhanced Serbian translations for the lexical editor have been
implemented. The updates correct inaccuracies in the Serbian Cyrillic
translations and address various errors in the previous versions.
### Why?
- Incorrect use of Latin script in place of Cyrillic.
- Contextual errors in translations.
The runner image `ubuntu-latest` image will be switching from Ubuntu
22.04 to Ubuntu 24.04 as specified in
https://github.com/actions/runner-images/issues/10636.
> Rollout will begin on December 5th and will complete on January 17th,
2025.
Breaking changes
Ubuntu 24.04 is ready to be the default version for the "ubuntu-latest"
label in GitHub Actions and Azure DevOps.
This PR moves us to explicitly use `ubuntu-24.04` to ensure
compatibility and to allow explicit upgrades in the future.
Adds documentation for the feature introduced with [plugin-search
collection reindexing](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/9391).
This also fixes an invalid scss import in one of the examples.
Credit to @rilrom for the invalid css import find!
The join field was not respecting the defaultSort or defaultLimit of the
field configuration.
### Why?
This was never implemented.
### How?
This fix applies these correct limit and sort properties to the query,
first based on the field config and as a fallback, the collection
configuration.
- Improvements to seed speed on the website template
- Update hero on mobile
- Fields are collapsed by default where possible now
- Add rowlabel components for nav items
In addition to requiring fewer files, it supports more nodes. If you
currently initialize a website template and want to use features such as
images or tables, they are not rendered. With this change that happens
automatically.

Similar to #9746. When deploying to Vercel, preview deployment URLs are
dynamically generated. This breaks `admin.preview` within those
deployments because there is no mechanism by which we can detect and set
that URL within Payload. Although Vercel provides various environment
variables at our disposal, they provide no concrete identifier for
exactly which URL is being currently previewed (you can access the same
deployment from a number of different URLs).
The fix is to support relative `admin.preview` URLs, that way Payload
can prepend the application's top-level domain dynamically at
render-time in order to create a fully qualified URL. So when you visit
a Vercel preview deployment, for example, that deployment's unique URL
is used as the preview redirect, instead of the application's
root/production domain. Note: this does not fix multi-tenancy
single-domain setups, as those still require a static top-level domain
for each tenant.
### What?
Fixes issue with stale locale from searchParams
### Why?
Bad use of useEffect/useState inside our useSearchParams provider.
### How?
Memoize the locale instead of relying on the useEffect which was causing
unnecessary renders with stale values.
When deploying to Vercel, preview deployment URLs are dynamically
generated. This breaks Live Preview within those deployments because
there is no mechanism by which we can detect and set that URL within
Payload. Although Vercel provides various environment variables at our
disposal, they provide no concrete identifier for exactly _which_ URL is
being currently previewed (you an access the same deployment from a
number of different URLs).
The fix is to support _relative_ live preview URLs, that way Payload can
prepend the application's top-level domain dynamically at render-time in
order to create a fully qualified URL. So when you visit a Vercel
preview deployment, for example, that deployment's unique URL is used to
load the iframe of the preview window, instead of the application's
root/production domain. Note: this does not fix multi-tenancy
single-domain setups, as those still require a static top-level domain
for each tenant.
### What?
The `<header>` dom node was rendering even if empty for group fields.
Causing extra margin to be added even if no label/description were
provided.
### Why?
If the field had no label, description or errors it would still render.
### How?
Wraps the header node in an additional condition that checks for label,
description or errors before rendering the node.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/9606
With Postgres / SQLite, select fields (non `hasMany: true`) weren't
properly handled in the `traverseFields.ts` function for `select` query.
### What
Updates auth.forgotPassword.expiration prop type to include JSDocs
I.e
```
/**
* The number of milliseconds that the forgot password token should be valid for.
* @default 3600000 // 1 hour
*/
```
Adds details about `output: 'standalone'` to Docker deployment section.
This is required in order for Next.js to be dockerized.
```
const nextConfig = {
output: 'standalone',
}
```
### What?
Unable to configure expiration time for the password reset tokens.
### Why?
Prior to this change, the expiration time for password reset tokens were
defaulted.
### How?
Adds new `expiration` prop to `auth.forgotPassword` object which allows
for the option to configure the expiration time of password reset
tokens.
This create a workflow that will trigger upon every release and do the
following:
- Re-generate all template lockfiles as needed (only blank and website
need them for payload cloud)
- Re-generate all postgres migrations for any pg-based template
- Commit changes
- Create PR

### What?

### Why?
`user.id` was being used as a dependency is callbacks and when the user
was logged out due to inactivity the above error would throw.
### How?
Added optional chaining to the dependency.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/9701
### What?
Previously, when defining `localization.locales` like this:
```ts
localization: {
defaultLocale: 'en',
locales: [{ label: { en: 'ESLocale' }, code: 'es' },{ label: { en: 'ESLocale' }, code: 'en' }],
},
```
The title in "copy to locale" modal was displayed incorrectly
```
Copy to locale: Copying from [object Object] to [object Object]
```
### How?
Uses the `getTranslation` function to handle this behavior properly
Removes maxDepth from link fields which can cause issues sometimes
depending on how deep the reference is
Also removes bottom border on website header.
### What?
Write conflict errors can arise when collections have hooks.
### Why?
The copyDataFromLocale local API calls to update were not passsing req
so changes could be made on different transcations.
### How?
Fixed the error by passing `req` and also introduced some perf
optimizations using `depth` and disabling `joins` since that data isn't
needed for this operation.
Adds configuration options to `auth.disableLocalStrategy` to allow
customization of how payload treats an auth enabled collection.
Two new properties have been added to `disableLocalStrategy`:
- `enableFields` Include auth fields on the collection even though the
local strategy is disabled. Useful when you do not want the database or
types to vary depending on the auth configuration used.
- `optionalPassword`: makes the password field not required
### What?
Migrates the `form-builder` example to payload `3.0`.
`Updates`:
- Now has a next app directly along side payload.
- Removes `form-builder/next-app` & `form-builder/next-pages` example
front-ends and only uses new recommended approach (i.e admin panel &
front-end on the same port - `3000`)
### What?
https://payloadcms.com/docs does not document the `payload.auth`
feature.
### Why?
With custom components, there is no explanation as to how you can get
the current user on the server side. It is also something useful to know
for many other scenarios. A Discord user even mentioned today, that they
spent quite some time, trying to figure out how to get the current user,
while on the server.
While I don't think it's the cleanest "place" to document it, I think
its what makes the most sense, given the current state of the
documentation. I tried to follow the existing format as close as
possible. The comments are longer, but I feel the information is
absolutely necessary to provide.
Confirmed that formatting works as expected and there are no errors
parsing the addition:

Fixes#9631
## Fix default retries
By default, if no `retries` property has been set, jobs / tasks should
not be retried. This was not the case previously, as the `maxRetries`
variable was `undefined`, causing jobs to retry endlessly. This PR sets
them to `0` by default.
Additionally, this fixes some undesirable behavior of the workflow
retries property. Workflow retries now act as **maximum**,
workflow-level retries. Only tasks that do not have a retry property set
will inherit the workflow-level retries.
## Fix error messages
Previously, you were able to encounter error messages with undefined
values like these:

Reason is that it was always using `job.workflowSlug` for the error
messages. However, if you queue a task directly, without a workflow,
`job.workflowSlug` is undefined and `job.taskSlug` should be used
instead.
This PR then gets rid of the second undefined value by ensuring that
`maxRetries´ is never undefined
More commit types will now show in the release notes. The full list of
allowable types are the following and will show in order:
```ts
const commitTypesForChangelog = [
'feat',
'fix',
'perf',
'refactor',
'docs',
'style',
'test',
'templates',
'examples',
'build',
'ci',
'chore',
]
```
What?
Fixes issue when on parallel writes in result you can have 0 latest:
true versions.
Why?
There must be always a version with latest: true
How?
Ensures that we always have a version with latest: true by adding a
filter on createdAt < createdVersion.createdAt.
Instead, this ponentially can lead to a situation where we have 2
versions with latest: true, if they were created at the exact same time,
but this shouldn't happen in a real world scenario and it's much less
problematic than not having a version with latest: true.

As described in #9576, the `SearchParamsProvider` can become stale when
navigating routes and relying on search params during initial render.
This is because this context, along with the `ParamsProvider`, is
duplicative to the internal lifecycle of `useSearchParams` and
`useParams` from `next/navigation`– but always one render behind.
Instead, we need to use the hooks directly from `next/navigation` as
described in the jsdocs. This will also remove any abstraction over top
the web standard for `URLSearchParams`.
For this reason, these providers and their corresponding hooks have been
marked with the deprecated flag and will continue to behave as they do
now, but will be removed in the next major release. This PR replaces all
internal reliance on these hooks with `next/navigation` as suggested,
except for the `useParams` hook, which was never used in the first
place.
```diff
'use client'
- import { useSearchParams } from '@payloadcms/ui'
+ import { useSearchParams } from 'next/navigation'
+ import { parseSearchParams } from '@payloadcms/ui'
export function MyClientComponent() {
- const { searchParams } = useSearchParams()
+ const searchParams = useSearchParams()
+ const parsedParams = parseSearchParams(searchParams)
// ...
}
```
_MyClientComponent.tsx_
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/9567. When using the
`AnimateHeight` component on a patched browser such as Webkit,
components with dynamically rendered children are not properly animating
in, such as blocks with rich text. This is because the height of that
content is unable to be calculated before it's rendered, preventing the
component from acquiring a target height to animate toward. This change
was originally introduced in #9456 in effort to remove unnecessary
dependencies.
The fix is to setup a ResizeObserver during animation to watch for
changes to the content's height. This way, as components dynamically
render in based on the "open" state, the hook will simply increment the
target height accordingly.
This PR updates all react and next-related packages to the latest
version in our test directory and in our templates, while still allowing
older versions to be used.
Additionally, this ensures that the "scheduler" package version we
install matches the version installed by react-dom
We should fix all the flaky tests in the future - in the meantime this
PR will reduce collectively wasted engineer hours, as we now don't have
to manually open the awkward GH actions UI and press the retry button -
often multiple times for each PR.
It may not be enough to simply retry the test:int / test:e2e commands to
get the tests not to flake for the next run, but let's see how this goes
Assume you had the following workflow:
```ts
handler: async ({ job, inlineTask, req }) => {
const { customerData } = await inlineTask('Fetch Customer Data', {
task: ({ req }) => {
if (Math.random() < 0.2) {
throw new Error('Failed on purpose')
}
return {
output: {
customerData: 'test',
},
}
},
retries: {
attempts: 40,
},
})
console.log('customer Data', customerData)
await inlineTask('Analyze Segments', {
// Rest of task...
```
It was possible for the following to happen:
Run attempt 1:
- Task "Fetch Customer Data" fails
- Task is added to job log without output data and state "failed"
Run attempt 2:
- Task "Fetch Customer Data" succeeds
- Task is added to job log with correct output data and state
"succeeded"
- Task "Analyze Segments" fails
- Task is added to job log without output data and state "failed"
Run attempt 3:
- Task "Fetch Customer Data" has already run successfully => restore
from DB
- Task "Analyze Segments" fails because input data is undefined.
The restoration of the already-succeeded "Fetch Customer Data" task did
not fetch and restore the correct output data, as it was taking the
output data from the previously failed task that did not save any, even
though it should have been taking and restoring the output data of the
last-run, successful task run.
This PR fixed that
### What?
Adds Serbian `rs` and `rs-Latin` to `importDateFNSLocale` as well as
changes their `dateFNSKey` in the language definition to the appropriate
key instead of `en-US`
### Why?
To support Serbian language with appropriately localized dates.
### How?
Minor changes in translations package.
Fixes: #9610.
### What?
Currently some links inside the main nav are still focusable with a
keyboard when the main nav is closed.
### Why?
This leads to the active keyboard focus getting lost until it eventually
finds its way to the hamburger menu button. It can also lead to links
that are not currently visible being selected accidentally.
### How?
When the [inert
attribute](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Global_attributes/inert)
is set to `true`, we can prevent focus on any child elements
automatically. We simply toggle the attribute on or off based on whether
the nav is open or closed.
The inert attribute has [great
compatibility](https://caniuse.com/mdn-html_global_attributes_inert)
with modern browsers these days, making it a solid choice to resolve
this issue.
### Recordings
#### Before
You can see down the bottom left of the screen that links available in
the main nav are still focusable even when the main nav is closed.
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/e16d5336-7d2b-42f1-886b-cfa3ed82dbb1
#### After
You can see that focus is immediately moved to the hamburger menu when
the main nav is closed.

Fixes#5026. When using client-side Live Preview, switching locale would
not populate relationships in that locale, and would use the default
locale instead. This was because locale was simply not being handled.
Now, we pass the locale through the event, and use it to make localized
queries when populating those relationships.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/9612
Previously, the plugin search with different collections but the same
IDs could delete a wrong search document on synchronization, because we
queried the search document only by `doc.value`. Instead, we should also
query by `doc.relationTo`.
When creating custom translations and merging the custom translation
keys with the default translation keys, and then pass it to the generic
TFunction type, Typescript complains that the function does not satisfy
the LabelFunction type in a label field.
The reason for this is that the LabelFunction type is not generic, and
it's always using the default TFunction which itself uses the
DefaultTranslationKey if no type is passed to it.
This is solved by making the LabelFunction generic and forward the
TTranslationKeys to the TFunction type.
Following this documentation:
https://payloadcms.com/docs/configuration/i18n#typescript
Example:

Updates the "More details" link URLs in the generateEmailHTML and
generateEmailSubject rows to link to the correct element.
The links current use camelcase but the corresponding element IDs are
lowercase.
See this page: https://payloadcms.com/docs/authentication/email
### What?
The examples in nestedDocs and formBuilder plugins were referencing the
plugins incorrectly.
### Why?
To prevent confusion for readers.
### How?
Changes to `docs/plugins/form-builder.mdx` and
`docs/plugins/nested-docs.mdx`.
We were sending unrendered `PayloadComponent`s to the client, which is a
remnant of old betas where those were actually rendered.
There is no point sending them to the client as they are useless there
and cannot be rendered without the server-only importMap. Additionally,
this could have potentially caused server-only modules to be sent to the
client (e.g. if serverProps was used), which would have lead to a
webpack error.
The types were also incorrect, as admin.dependencies on the ClientConfig
did not contain the React nodes.
### What?
When the document is saved the formState was not being reset from the
server.
### Why?
getFormState was not being called onSuccess of the form submission
### How?
The `Form` onSuccess function now allows for an optional return type of
`FormState` if the functions returns formState then we check to see if
that differs from the current formState on the client. If it does then
we dispatch the `REPLACE_STATE` action with the newState.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/9423
Closes#8653.
Originally this PR was for making the `IndentFeature` opt-in instead of
opt-out, which would have been a breaking change. After some discussion
it was determined it would be better if we could keep the
`IndentFeature` by default and instead come up with a custom escape key
solution to prevent keyboard users from becoming trapped in the editor.
These changes are my interpretation of how we can solve this problem in
a way that feels natural for a keyboard user. When a keyboard user
becomes trapped, the usual approach is to press the escape key (e.g.
modals) to be able to leave the current context and continue navigating.
These changes allow that to happen while minimising the cognitive load
by not needing to remember whether the `IndentFeature` is toggled on or
off.
I've also ensured the `IndentFeature` can actually be turned off if
consciously removed from the lexical editor features (previously it was
still enabled even if it was removed).
Ideally this should be handled on the lexical side in the
`TabIndentationPlugin` itself (I will begin to look into the feasibility
of this), but for now this should be suitable to ensure the experience
for keyboard users isn't completely blocked (there are a number of other
improvements that could be made but I will create more specific issues
for those).
Open to discussion and amendments. Once we're aligned on the approach
I'm happy to implement tests as needed.

Closes#9132. When query params are present in the URL, such as after
searching or filtering in the list view, they are not being retained
after navigating back to that view via `history.back()` (i.e. the back
button). This makes it difficult to quickly navigate in and out of
documents from the list view when an underlying search exists. This was
because the `SearchParamsProvider` is stale when the new view renders,
which then replaces the URL with these stale params. The fix here is to
_not_ use the `SearchParamsProvider` at all, and instead use
`next/navigation` directly. Ultimately, this provider should likely be
marked deprecated and then removed in the next major release for this
very reason.
.tsx files were introduced into the plugin-search package, but an
appropriate `copyfiles` script was not introduced to get these files
into the dist output.
This was causing a `Module not found: Can't resolve './index.scss'`
error on build.

### What?
Extracted `hasText` helper method in `richTextValidateHOC`
### Why?
The new exported `hasText` helper method can now also be used during
front-end serialization - for example, to check whether a caption
element should be rendered when text is optional and therefore possibly
empty (which would allow us to prevent rendering an empty caption
element).
Fixes#8811
Before this PR, even if you did not include text formatting features
(such as BoldFeature, ItalicFeature, etc), it was possible to apply that
formatting by (a) pasting content from the clipboard and (b) using
keyboard shortcuts.
This PR fixes that by requiring the formatting features to be registered
so that they can be inserted in the editor.
When using the `admin.hidden: true` property on a collection, it
rightfully removes all navigation and routing for that particular
collection. However, this also affects the expected behavior of hidden
entities when they are rendered within a drawer, such as the document
drawer or list drawer. For example, when creating a new _admin.hidden_
document through the relationship or join field, the drawer should still
render the view, despite the underlying route for that view being
disabled. This change was a result of the introduction of on-demand
server components in #8364, where we now make a server roundtrip to
render the view in its entirety, which include the logic that redirects
these hidden entities.
Now, we pass a new `overrideEntityVisibility` argument through the
server function that, when true, skips this step. This way documents can
continue to respect `admin.hidden` while also having the ability to
override on a case-by-case basis throughout the UI.
### What?
This PR aims to add reindexing capabilities to `plugin-search` to allow
users to reindex entire searchable collections on demand.
### Why?
As it stands, end users must either perform document reindexing manually
one-by-one or via bulk operations. Both of these approaches are
undesirable because they result in new versions being published on
existing documents. Consider the case when `plugin-search` is only added
_after_ the project has started and documents have been added to
existing collections. It would be nice if users could simply click a
button, choose the searchable collections to reindex, and have the
custom endpoint handle the rest.
### How?
This PR adds on to the existing plugin configuration, creating a custom
endpoint and a custom `beforeListTable` component in the form of a popup
button. Upon clicking the button, a dropdown/popup is opened with
options to select which collection to reindex, as well as a useful `All
Collections` option to run reindexing on all configured search
collections. It also adds a `reindexBatchSize` option in the config to
allow users to specify in what quantity to batch documents to sync with
search.
Big shoutout to @paulpopus & @r1tsuu for the triple-A level support on
this one!

Notes:
- Traditionally these kinds of long-running tasks would be better suited
for a job. However, given how many users enjoy deploying to serverless
environments, it would be problematic to offer this feature exclusive to
jobs queues. I thought a significant amount about this and decided it
would be best to ship the feature as-is with the intention of creating
an opt-in method to use job queues in the future if/when this gets
merged.
- In my testing, the collection description somehow started to appear in
the document views after the on-demand RSC merge. I haven't reproduced
this, but this PR has an example of that problem. Super strange.

### What?
Adds ability to copy data from one locale to another at a document
level.
### How?
For any localized collection, you will find a new option in the document
controls called `Copy to Locale`.
This option will open a drawer, from here you can select your origin and
destination locales.
If data already exists in the destination locale, you can choose to:
1. Overwrite this data (this will copy any empty fields in your origin
locale)
2. Not overwrite existing data (this will only copy data into empty
fields in the destination locale)

In an effort to keep the Examples Directory as easy to navigate as
possible, and to keep the Payload Monorepo only as verbose as it needs
to be, we need to remove all alternatives from the Examples Directory.
This includes setups that interact with Payload from a standalone
server, keeping only the Payload recommended "combined" Next.js +
Payload setups.
### What?
Migrates the `live-preview` example to payload `3.0`.
`Updates`:
- `live-preview/payload` now has a next app directly along side payload.
- Removes `live-preview/next-app` & `live-preview/next-pages` example
front-ends and only uses new recommended approach (i.e admin panel &
front-end on the same port - `3000`)
If you had a lot of fields and collections, createClientConfig would be
extremely slow, as it was copying a lot of memory. In my test config
with a lot of fields and collections, it took 4 seconds(!!).
And not only that, it also ran between every single page navigation.
This PR significantly speeds up the createClientConfig function. In my
test config, its execution speed went from 4 seconds to 50 ms.
Additionally, createClientConfig is now properly cached in both dev &
prod. It no longer runs between every single page navigation. Even if
you trigger a full page reload, createClientConfig will be cached and
not run again. Despite that, HMR remains fully-functional.
This will make payload feel noticeably faster for large configs -
especially if it contains a lot of richtext fields, as it was previously
deep-copying the relatively large richText editor configs over and over
again.
## Before - 40 sec navigation speed
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/fe6b707a-459b-44c6-982a-b277f6cbb73f
## After - 1 sec navigation speed
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/384fba63-dc32-4396-b3c2-0353fcac6639
## Todo
- [x] Implement ClientSchemaMap and cache it, to remove
createClientField call in our form state endpoint
- [x] Enable schemaMap caching for dev
- [x] Cache lexical clientField generation, or add it to the parent
clientConfig
## Lexical changes
Red: old / removed
Green: new

### Speed up version queries
This PR comes with performance optimizations for fetching versions
before a document is loaded. Not only does it use the new select API to
limit the fields it queries, it also completely skips a database query
if the current document is published.
### Speed up lexical init
Removes a bunch of unnecessary deep copying of lexical objects which
caused higher memory usage and slower load times. Additionally, the
lexical default config sanitization now happens less often.
### What?
When you prevent users from authenticating with their email, we should
not enforce uniqueness on the email field.
### Why?
We never set the unique property to false.
### How?
Set the unique property to false if `loginWithUsername.allowEmailLogin`
is `false`.
The version diff view at
`/admin/collections/:collection/:id/versions/:version` was not properly
displaying diffs for iterable fields, such as blocks. There were two
main things wrong here:
1. Fields not properly inheriting parent permissions based on the new
sanitized permissions pattern in #7335
1. The diff components were expecting `permissions` but receiving
`fieldPermissions`. This was not picked up by TS because of our use of
dynamic keys when choosing which component to render for that particular
field. We should change this in the future to use a switch case that
explicitly renders each diff component. This way props are strictly
typed.
In effort to keep the Examples Directory as easy to navigate as
possible, and to keep the Payload Monorepo only as verbose as it needs
to be, we need to remove all alternatives from the Examples Directory.
This includes setups that interact with Payload from a standalone
server, keeping only the Payload recommended "combined" Next.js +
Payload setups. This will also be applied to all other examples that use
this setup, i.e. draft preview, live preview, etc.
### What?
Previously, `payload.findByID` with `overrideAccess: false` and this
collection config
```ts
{
slug: 'fields-and-top-access',
access: {
read: () => ({
secret: {
equals: '12345',
},
}),
},
fields: [
{
type: 'text',
name: 'secret',
access: { read: () => false },
},
],
},
```
Led to the `The following path cannot be queried: secret` error because
`where` input to `validateQueryPaths` also includes the result from
access control, which shouldn't be.
This works when using `payload.find`.
The same applies to find with drafts / joins `where`. We need to
validate only user `where` input, not access control that we defined in
our config.
Also, this exact logic seems be used in `find` without drafts - we don't
use `fullWhere` here but `where`, that's why this error isn't being
thrown with `find` but only `findByID`.

Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/9210
### What?
Plugin-seo fields were not set to disabled when a user did not have
permissions.
### Why?
The `readOnly` property was not being used.
### How?
Uses the `readOnly` property to disable buttons and set inputs to
readOnly.
### What?
Fixes a link to the `storage-uploadthing` adapter in Github.
### Why?
To link readers to the correct package location.
### How?
Change to `docs/upload/storage-adapters.mdx`.
Credit to rik in Discord for the catch.
Deprecates `react-animate-height` in favor of native CSS, specifically
the `interpolate-size: allow-keywords;` property which can be used to
animate to `height: auto`—the primary reason this package exists. This
is one less dependency in our `node_modules`. Tried to replicate the
current DOM structure, class names, and API of `react-animate-height`
for best compatibility.
Note that this CSS property is experimental BUT this PR includes a patch
for browsers without native support. Once full support is reached, the
patch can be safely removed.
### What?
Adds custom anchor tags to docs where duplicate headings exist.
### Why?
Anchor links would not correctly navigate to the proper point on the
page if there were multiple headings with the same string.
### How?
The website now supports adding custom `#anchor` to a heading in
markdown that will attach to the headings and table of content list
items. This PR adds custom anchors to the docs that have duplicate
headings.
**Example:**
```md
/docs/upload/storage-adapters.mdx
### Usage#vercel-blob-installation
```
Generates the path:
`/docs/upload/storage-adapters#vercel-blob-installation`
Ensures `sanitizeRelationshipIDs` works properly in any case
Updates predefinedMigration to work with new globals
Skips ObjectID creation errors to not fail with outdated data to the
schema.

The [previous fix](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/8735)
worked but was a breaking change because it set a `z-index` in the
`.react-select` wrapper instead of the `.rs__menu`, creating a new
stacking-context, therefore making any existing customizations to the
menu's `z-index` not work. This was a way to fix a regression introduced
by the css-layers, in which Payload's custom `z-index: 4` no longer took
precedence over react-select's default `z-index: 1`.
With this PR we remove the default `z-index: 1` applied by react-select,
so that the `z-index: 4` set in the "payload-default" css layer can take
effect. An alternative to this fix would be to use `z-index: 4
!important`, but this has the advantage of allowing the `z-index` to be
easily customized by the consumers of the CMS, as with all the other
styles.
### Screenshots

### What?
This log was appearing when the DatePicker loaded without a registered
locale:
```
A locale object was not found for the provided string ["enUS"].
```
Also fixes css misalignment of icons inside date picker field
### Why?
If i`18n.dateFNS` had not loaded, we were registering the locale with an
undefined value.
### How?
Only register the locale for react-datepicker if i18n.dateFNS is
present.
List preferences were improperly saving their own records onto
themselves when building table state through the server function. This
was happening because the entire preference document was being spread
onto the new preferences, as opposed to just the value itself:
```diff
const mergedPrefs = {
- ...(preferencesResult || {}),
+ ...(preferencesResult?.value || {}),
columns,
}
```
This PR also swaps `dequal` out for `dequal/lite`.
### What?
We sorted migrations by `-name` in `getMigrations` as by assumption from
generated file names, however, it may be not true as the improved (+
unflaked, previously it failed sometimes) test for `migrate:down` can
reproduce. As in result, `migrateDown` / `migrateRefresh` may execute in
order different from `migrate`.
Unflakes the 'should commit multiple operations async' test.
We shouldn't pass the same `req` that doesn't contain a transaction to
different operations that execute in parallel (via `Promise.all`)
without either creating a transaction before or using
`isolateObjectProperty(req, 'transactionID')`. It leads to a race
condition because operation can commit a wrong transaction, different
from inited
### What?
Previously, using Postgres, select fields with `hasMany: true` weren't
clearable.
Meaning, you couldn't pass an empty array:
```ts
const updatedDoc = await payload.update({
id,
collection: 'select-fields',
data: {
selectHasMany: [],
},
})
```
### Why?
To achieve the same behavior with MongoDB.
### How?
Modifies logic in `packages/drizzle/src/upsertRow/index.ts` to include
empty arrays.
- Update lock files for blank, website
- Delete unneeded lock files
- Adds git hook to ensure no new lockfiles are added for _other than_
blank and website.
- Uses `pagination: false` where we don't need `totalDocs`.
- in `preview/route.ts` uses `depth: 0`, select of only ID to improve
performance
- in `search` uses `select` to select only needed properties
- adds type safety best practices to collection configs with
`defaultPopulate`
- uses `payload.count` to resolve SSG `pageNumber`s
Removes unnecessary `deepCopyObject(docPermissions)` in the Version View
which slows down loading speed.
The comment seems to be resolved, I'm not getting this error and here
for example in the same case
3c0e832a9a/packages/next/src/views/Document/index.tsx (L327)
we don't do deep copying.
### What?
The "noResults" translation key, for Russian, which is displayed when
searching a collection list and receiving no results.

### Why?
Unlike English, Slavic languages like Russian have the concept of
genders and depending on the ending of a particular word, the endings of
adjectives can be different, to correspond with those genders. The
current version only works with feminine words, directly translating to
"No {{label}} found. Either {{label}} doesn't exist yet, or none of them
match the filters you specified above."
The new version translates to "Nothing found. {{label}} may not exist
yet or doesn't match the specified filters.", which is a more loose
translation, but holds the same meaning, while being grammatically
correct in all scenarios, regardless of the gender.
### What?
This PR fixes a variety of links around the docs.
### Why?
To link readers to the correct location in the docs
### How?
Changes and fixes to a number of doc links.
TS 5.7 added support for ES2024. By keeping target: “esnext”, we would
have accidentally set our minimum supported ES version to ES2024.
This sets it to ES2022, which is the version supported by Node 18
When using Client-side Live Preview, array fields are unable to clear
all their rows. This is because `reduceFieldsToValues` sets the array's
value as 0 within form-state when no rows exist, as opposed to an empty
array as one might expect. For now, we can simply handle this data shape
within Live Preview's merge logic. In the future we may want to take to
consider changing the behavior of empty arrays within form-state itself.
1. Adds flag `--skip-empty` to `migrate:create` to bypass the empty
migration file prompt.
- Blank migration file will not be created if this flag is passed.
3. Adds flag `--force-accept-warning` to `migrate:fresh` to bypass the
drop database prompt
Now, custom Lexical block & inline block components are re-rendered if
the fields drawer is saved. This ensures that RSCs receive the updated
values, without having to resort to a client component that utilizes the
`useForm` hook.
Additionally, this PRs fixes the lexical selection jumping around after
opening a Block or InlineBlock drawer and clicking inside of it.
### What?
`payload.collections` was improperly typed.
This doesn't seem to work: (the type is `{}`)
```
collections: {
[slug: CollectionSlug]: Collection
} = {}
```
<img width="794" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/7daceab9-8f43-433b-9201-1bf8c48fb8ca">
However, this does:
```ts
collections: Record<CollectionSlug, Collection> = {}
```
<img width="540" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/e37d595d-f5b4-4b02-b190-bb5d4063787d">
Additionally, the same fix applied to `Permissions`,
`PolymorphicUploadField['admin']['sortOptions']`,
`PolymorphicRelationshipField['admin']['sortOptions']`
When defining custom providers as server components, they currently do
not receive any of the server props that custom components expect to
receive, like `payload`, `i18n`, `user`, and so on.
### What?
Although the following examples:
- `custom-components`
- `email`
- `multi-tenant`
were recently migrated to 3.0 - they were still using the latest `beta`
version instead of latest payload (i.e `3.0`)
- Removes mention of custom providers needing to be client components
- Documents custom field `Filter` components
- Adjusts language and other misc. grammar and spelling
### What?
Non-standard ids caused an issue when finding the document on the
server.
This is an odd regression, in 2.0 we were fetching the document on the
client so the request would handle decoding the url. Now we are fetching
the document on the server and need to do this manually when reading id
from route params.
### Why?
The slug pulled out of the url for an id of `id 1` would equate to
`id%201` which would fail in the `payload.find` call since there is not
an id stored as `id%201` but instead `id 1`.
### How?
Wherever we are calling payload.find in the views and querying by `id`
it gets ran through a helper function that decodes it properly.
Fixes#9373
Added patch to `withPayload` for hiding turbopack external deps warnings
from this PR https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/9147 didn't work
on `next@15.0.3`, now it works on both `15.0.0` and `15.0.3`.
### What?
`viewActions` are not easily accessible in custom views.
### Why?
We extract view actions when we call `getViewFromConfig`, but never pass
them to the custom views.
### How?
Properly types return type for serverProps inside `getViewFromConfig`
and adds viewActions to serverProps so they are spread into props when
we build the custom view components.
Now custom server views will get the viewActions as a prop.
Fixes#9338
Fixes errors when having joins with versions +drafts on `hasMany: true`
relationships.
Removes `joinQuery` overhead if we don't need it for the current
operation. Right now, in all adapters we support joins only for `find`,
`findOne`, and `queryDrafts`.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/9369
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/9363
This fixes the following issues that caused fields to be either hidden,
or incorrectly set to readOnly in certain configurations:
- In some cases, permissions were sanitized incorrectly. This PR
rewrites the sanitizePermissions function and adds new unit tests
- after a document save, the client was receiving unsanitized
permissions. Moving the sanitization logic to the endpoint fixes this
- Various incorrect handling of permissions in our form state endpoints
/ RenderFields
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/9378
We’ve found out that @lexical/markdown imports cannot be reliably
dynamically imported by Node.js for an unknown reason. Frequently,
Node.js simply exits before the dynamic import is done.
We’re suspecting the reason for this to be its dependency on
@lexical/code that installs prism.
This will not only (hopefully) fix the import issue, but also reduce the
bundle size & compilation speed of richtext-lexical.
Fixes#9351. When using Postgres, doc ids were being treated as a string
as opposed to a number within the admin panel. This led to issues for
anything relying on the `docID` from context, such as the join field not
properly populating initial data when creating new documents, etc.
### What?
Fixes links for custom components in a few places in admin docs.
### Why?
To link users to the correct location in the docs.
### How?
Changes to `docs/admin/components.mdx` and
`docs/admin/customizing-css.mdx`
Closes#9242 and #9365. Autosave-enabled documents rendered within a
drawer were not being properly handled. This was causing multiple draft
documents to be created upon opening the drawer, as well as an empty
document returned from the server function, etc.
### What?
Unable to add collections to the config dynamically if they reference
their own collection in a relationship field.
This was discovered while working on the folder view feature which
dynamically adds collections to your config if it is enabled per
collection.
### Why?
When `sanitizeCollection` runs, it takes the current config. If you are
sanitizing a collection before adding it to the config, that collection
cannot have any self referencing relationship fields on it otherwise it
fails the validRelationships check.
### How?
Using a reducer we now initialize the validRelationships variable with
the incoming collection slug.
### What?
When a document is saved the data from useDocumentInfo was stale.
### Why?
Previously we would refresh the entire document by calling the
form-state endpoint, we no longer do that.
### How?
Adds a new variable accessible from useDocumentInfo,
`savedDocumentData`, that is updated when the document is successfully
saved and defaults to initialData.
Fixes#9337. The version view was not able to render its diff because of
an invalid permissions lookup. This was a result of a change to how
access results are returned from the API, which are now sanitized:

Fixes#9264. When externally updating array or block rows through the
`addFieldRow` or `replaceFieldRow` methods, nested rich text fields
along with any custom components within them are never rendered. This is
because unless the form is explicitly set to modified, as the default
array and blocks fields currently do, the newly generated form-state
will skip the rendering step. Now, the underlying callbacks themselves
automatically set the form to modified to trigger rendering.
### What?
Could not finalize selection of `hasMany` uploads inside of the drawer.
### Why?
The Select component was not being rendered in the beforeActions prop of
the ListControls when row selections was enabled.
### How?
Renders the Select component when row selections are enabled and
onBulkSelect is present.
The biggest difference comes from calling `RenderServerComponent` as a
function, instead of rendering it by using `<RenderServerComponent`.
This gets rid of wasteful blocks of codes sent to the client that look
like this:

The problem was that the uploads test suite was trying to log in to
payload before it was even initialized.
In the rare event where payload started up before the uploads test suite
was trying to log in, our tests passed.
### What?
In the WhereBuilder Condition DefaultFilter component, there is a switch
statement that contains components to return based on the built filter
in the admin ui. Having a filter built out then navigating to another
collection list view causes an error to occur due to InternalField being
undefined but the DefaultFilter tries to access the field on it.
### Why?
To fix unexpected `cannot access property field of undefined` errors.
### How?
Adding a conditional chaining operator.
Odd thing here is that the `Text` component where this error originates
from doesn't actually make use of the passed `InternalField`. Might be
worth it to take a closer look at it.
Fixes#9179
Removes examples that are now duplicative or unnecessary due to new
features in 3.0:
### Custom server
This one can be removed in favor of [Next.js
documentation](https://nextjs.org/docs/pages/building-your-application/configuring/custom-server)
### Hierarchy
The new `join` field can solve for many of the use cases for the
`hierarchy` example. Bi-directional relationships with the `join` field
should be preferred here.
### Nested Docs, Redirects
Our website template showcases how to use the `nested-docs` and
`redirects` plugins in-depth, with real-world examples.
### Virtual Fields
Virtual fields have gotten significantly easier and can now be defined
by specifying `virtual: true`. Not a big need for a full example any
longer.

Fixes types for workflows / jobs `input` and `output` when using
`strict: true` or `strictNullChecks: true` by ensuring that all
properties in generates types are requried
The Edit and Live Preview views were duplicately making the same Local
API requests for document data. This is because while the top-level
document view handler makes these requests _before_ rendering the Live
Preview view, it wasn't passing it's data through as props. This has
also led to inconsistencies in the options being passed through the
requests themselves, such as `locale`, `user`, and `overrideAccess:
false`. Everything is now standardized as expected through the existing
`getDocumentData` utility.
If you start a fresh dev server and open payload, the nav will initially
show as closed and then jump to its open state. This is because no
preferences are set, so the server tells the client to initially keep it
closed, despite the default nav state being _open_.
### What?
Custom providers could not be resolved because payload was not
initialized in the Root layout with the importMap passed in from props.
### How?
Pass importMap from props into the getPayload function in the Root
layout.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/9288
### What?
When a block had a subfield named `blocks`, sanitization would throw an
error.
### Why?
An incorrect check for the key of `"fields"` would then attempt to pass
`data.blocks[key].fields` aka `data.blocks.fields.fields` to the next
call of `areAllPermissionsTrue` which would be undefined. Instead if the
key is `fields` it should pass `data.blocks[key]`.
### How?
Remove the second `.fields` property accessor.
Optimizes initial page responses by removing unnecessary inline field
styles that were being sent through the HTML response. The Client Config
contains a large number of duplicates of the string:
`"style\":{\"flex\":\"1 1 auto\"}`, one for every single field within
the entirely of the config. This leads to hundreds or potentially
thousands of instances of this same string, depending on the number of
fields within the config itself. This is regardless of custom field
widths being defined. Instead, we can do this entirely client-side,
preventing this string from ever being transmitted over the network in
the first place.
## Breaking Changes
This only effects those who are importing Payload's field components
into your own Custom Components or front-end application. The `width`
prop no longer exists. It has been consolidated into the existing
`style` prop. To migrate, simply move this prop as follows:
```diff
import { TextInput } from '@payloadcms/ui
export const MyCustomComponent = () => {
return (
<TextInput
- width="60%"
style={{
+ width: "60%,
}}
/>
)
}
```
### What?
Fixes potential errors when passed to `sanitizeRelationships` `ref`
could potentially be a non object (for example `string`) because of
having in the database data in old structure.
```
"Cannot create property 'a' on string 'B'",
```
### Why?
Necessary particularly for the migration script, as it migrates
everything including versions that can have outdated data.
### How?
Ensures passed `ref` is an `object`.
### What?
When a script attempts to load payload using `getPayload()`, it will end
with: `Error: connect ECONNREFUSED 127.0.0.1:3000` etc...
### Why?
Even though there is a try/catch, it still errors because WebSocket
connection failures happen asynchronously after the ws object is
instantiated.
### How?
Added the error handling function cached.ws.onerror to prevent exit.
Custom field description functions were being duplicately called in both
the Client Config and form state. Static field descriptions were also
being rendered in form state unnecessarily. Now, field description
functions are only executed once within form state, and static
descriptions are deferred to the client for rendering.
Supports bi-directional import/export between MDX <=> Lexical. JSX will
be mapped to lexical blocks back and forth.
This will allow editing our mdx docs in payload while keeping mdx as the
source of truth

### What?
Fixes the issue when visiting the create view with the Join Field and
using postgres adapter
```
invalid input syntax for type integer: "NaN"
```
This happens because we don't have an ID yet and we send to the
database:
`WHERE id = NaN`
### How?
Avoids calling `getTableState` inside of `RelationshipTable` if there's
no ID yet, as it will always lead to the same empty result. While we
_could_ avoid error directly in the database adapter, I don't think we
should do that render request
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/9193
### What?
Previously, this code led to a validation error because `movie` is an
object and you needed to use `movie.id` instead.
```ts
const movie = await payload.create({ collection: 'movies', data: {} })
const result = await payload.create({
collection: 'object-writes',
data: {
many: [movie],
manyPoly: [{ relationTo: 'movies', value: movie }],
one: movie,
onePoly: {
relationTo: 'movies',
value: movie,
},
},
})
```
While it's simple to modify this example, it's more painful when you
have a data with `depth` > 0 and then you want to update that document.
### Why?
Better DX as less checks needed, and TypeScript says that we can pass an
object.
### How?
Sanitizes the field value in the root `beforeValidate` hook
The field RSC now provides an initial state for all lexical blocks. This
completely obliterates any flashes and lexical block loading states when
loading or saving a document.
Previously, when a document is loaded or saved, every lexical block was
sending a network request in order to fetch their form state. Now, this
is batched and handled in the lexical server component. All lexical
block form states are sent to the client together with the parent
lexical field, and are thus available immediately.
We also do the same with block collapsed preferences. Thus, there are no
loading states or layout shifts/flashes of blocks anymore.
Additionally, when saving a document while your cursor is inside a
lexical field, the cursor position is preserved. Previously, a document
save would kick your cursor out of the lexical field.
## Look at how nice this is:
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/21d736d4-8f80-4df0-a782-7509edd993da
**BREAKING:**
This removes the `feature.hooks.load` and `feature.hooks.save`
interfaces from custom lexical features, as they weren't used internally
and added unnecessary, additional overhead.
If you have custom features that use those, you can migrate to using
normal payload hooks that run on the server instead of the client.
Documents more breaking changes within the migration guide, improves
overview, reorganizes everything, adds section headings, table of
contents, and more.
With this PR, you can now customize the way that `blocks` and
`inlineBlocks` are rendered within Lexical's `BlocksFeature` by passing
your own React components.
This is super helpful when you need to create "previews" or more
accurate UI for your Lexical blocks.
For example, let's say you have a `gallery` block where your admins
select a bunch of images. By default, Lexical would just render a
collapsible with your block's fields in it. But now you can customize
the `admin.components.Block` property on your `block` config by passing
it a custom React component for us to render instead.
So using that, with this `gallery` example, you could make a dynamic
gallery React component that shows the images to your editors - and then
render our built-in `BlockEditButton` to allow your editors to manage
your gallery in a drawer.
Here is an example where the BlockEditButton is added to the default
Block Collapsible/Header:

Deprecates `getPayloadHMR` and simplifies this pattern into a single
`import { getPayload } from 'payload'`.
We will still retain the exported `getPayloadHMR` but it now will throw
a deprecation warning with instructions for how to migrate.
Custom `account` and `dashboard` views now defined as lowercase in the
config. This is to maintain consistency with all other custom views
throughout the config. The underlying reason for this change is that
previously, you could define React Components directly on these
properties. Now, these are strictly _view configuration objects_, and
the property names have been adjusted in order to semantically reflect
that. These two views in particular, however, were never updated
accordingly.
## Breaking Changes
```diff
import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
const config = buildConfig({
// ...
admin: {
components: {
// ...
views: {
// ...
- Account: ...
- Dashboard: ...
+ account: ...
+ dashboard: ...
},
},
},
})
```
Fixes#9246. Custom default root views (account and dashboard) were not
being properly thread to the custom component renderer. Custom account
views were also improperly _stacking_ instead of _replacing_ the default
view.
Tests for this are incoming. To properly test this we need to wrap our
default root views with custom ones, so that out existing `admin` test
suite can continue to work alongside tests specifically for this issue.
This PR fixes cases where you may have a field called `id` within a
group or a named tab, which would have incorrectly been treated as a
custom ID field for the collection.
However, custom IDs need to be defined at the root level - and now
Payload only respects custom IDs defined at the root level.
Protects the `/api/access` endpoint behind authentication and sanitizes
the result, making it more secure and significantly smaller. To do this:
1. The `permission` keyword is completely omitted from the result
2. Only _truthy_ access results are returned
3. All nested permissions are consolidated when possible

### What?
Fixes links in Queries/Operators table for `within` and `intersects`
operator descriptions.
### Why?
So that they point to the correct destination in the docs.
### How?
Changes to `docs/queries/overview.mdx`
See here:

**BREAKING:**
Improves type-safety of collection / global slugs by using `CollectionSlug` / `UploadCollectionSlug` and `GlobalSlug` types instead of `string` in these places:
Adds `UploadCollectionSlug` and `TypedUploadCollection` utility types
This also changes how we suggest to add an upload collection to a cloud-storage adapter:
Before:
```ts
azureStorage({
collections: {
[Media.slug]: true,
},
})
```
After:
```ts
azureStorage({
collections: {
media: true,
},
})
```
The collection list columns are stored as user preferences to the
payload-preferences collection. Normally one user should never have
duplicate documents with the same key. This is controlled by using an
upsert normally. The collection list does not have a good way to call
upsert and was creating preferences documents every time. This change
makes it so that existing preferences are updated rather than created
with each column change.
Changes:
- Migrates `email` example project to `3.0` from `2.0`
- Replaces `inline-css` dependency with `juice` package instead.
- Replaces `Handlebars` dependency with `ejs` package instead.
Reason for replacing packages:
- Both `inline-css` & `Handlebars` had issues with Nextjs and its
Webpack bundling i.e does not support `require.extensions`.
- `ejs` & `juice` do not rely on `require.extensions`.
### What?
Upgrades mongoose from 6 to latest `v8.8.1`
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/9171
### Why?
Compatibilty with Mongodb Atlas
### How?
- Updates deps
- Changed ObjectId from bson-objectid to use `new Type.ObjectId` from
mongoose for compatibility (only inside of db-mongodb)
- Internal type adjustments
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/discussions/9088
BREAKING CHANGES:
All projects with existing data having versions enabled, or relationship or upload fields will want to create the predefined migration that converts all strings to ObjectIDs where needed. This can be created using `payload migrate:create --file @payloadcms/mongodb/relationships-v2-v3`.
For projects making use of the exposed Models from mongoose, review the
upgrade guides from [v6 to
v7](https://mongoosejs.com/docs/7.x/docs/migrating_to_7.html) and [v7 to
v8](https://mongoosejs.com/docs/migrating_to_8.html) and make
adjustments as needed.

The mongodb adapter `updateOne` method accepts an `options` argument
that allows query options to be passed to mongoose. This parameter was
added in https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/8397 to support the
`upsert` operation.
This `options` parameter can also be useful when using the database
adaptor directly without going through the local api. It is true that
the Mongoose models could be used directly in such situations, but the
adapter methods include a lot of useful functionality, like for instance
the sanitization of document and relationship ids, so it is desirable to
be able to use the adapter functions while still being able to provide
mongoose query options (e.g. `{timestamps: false}`).
This PR adds the same options parameter to the other update methods of
the mongodb adapter.
### What?
Aligns types for HiddenField and the WatchCondition component with the
rest of the fields. Since path is required when rendering a Field
component, there is no need to keep it optional in the WatchCondition
component.
### Why?
Hidden fields were requiring the `field` property to be passed, but the
only reason it needed it was to allow the path to fallback to name if
path was not passed. But path is required so there is no need for this
anymore.
This makes using the HiddenField simpler now.
### How?
Adjusts type on the HiddenField and the WatchCondition component.
Similar to https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/9195 but
specifically removing `i18n.supportedLanguages` from the client config.
This is a potentially large object that does not need to be sent through
the network when making RSC requests.
### What?
Changes the order of the `DefaultCellComponentProps` generic type,
allowing us to infer the type of cellData when a ClientField type is
passed as the first generic argument. You can override the cellData type
by passing the second generic.
Previously:
```ts
type DefaultCellComponentProps<TCellData = any, TField extends ClientField = ClientField>
```
New:
```ts
type DefaultCellComponentProps<TField extends ClientField = ClientField, TCellData = undefined>
```
### Why?
Changing the ClientField type to be the first argument allows us to
infer the cellData value type based on the type of field.
I could have kept the same signature but the usage would look like:
```ts
// Not very DX friendly
const MyCellComponent<DefaultCellComponentProps<,ClientField>> = () => null
```
### How?
The changes made
[here](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/compare/chore/beta/simplify-DefaultCellComponentProps?expand=1#diff-24f3c92e546c2be3fed0bab305236bba83001309a7239c20a3e3dbd6f5f71dc6R29-R73)
allow this. You can override the type by passing in the second argument
to the generic.
### What?
Exposes DefaultServerCellComponentProps type for custom server cell
components.
### Why?
So users can type their custom server cell components properly.
Adds documentation for `within` and `intersects` operators.
#### Querying - within
In order to do query based on whether points are within a specific area
defined in GeoJSON, you can use the `within` operator.
Example:
```ts
const polygon: Point[] = [
[9.0, 19.0], // bottom-left
[9.0, 21.0], // top-left
[11.0, 21.0], // top-right
[11.0, 19.0], // bottom-right
[9.0, 19.0], // back to starting point to close the polygon
]
payload.find({
collection: "points",
where: {
point: {
within: {
type: 'Polygon',
coordinates: [polygon],
},
},
},
})
```
#### Querying - intersects
In order to do query based on whether points intersect a specific area
defined in GeoJSON, you can use the `intersects` operator.
Example:
```ts
const polygon: Point[] = [
[9.0, 19.0], // bottom-left
[9.0, 21.0], // top-left
[11.0, 21.0], // top-right
[11.0, 19.0], // bottom-right
[9.0, 19.0], // back to starting point to close the polygon
]
payload.find({
collection: "points",
where: {
point: {
intersects: {
type: 'Polygon',
coordinates: [polygon],
},
},
},
})
```
Upgrade uploadthing to v7
The `options` that can be passed to the plugin now mirror the
`UTApiOptions` of v7.
The most notable change is to pass `token` with
`process.env.UPLOADTHING_TOKEN` instead of `apiKey` with
`process.env.UPLOADTHING_SECRET`.
```diff
options: {
- apiKey: process.env.UPLOADTHING_SECRET,
+ token: process.env.UPLOADTHING_TOKEN,
acl: 'public-read',
},
### What?
List column state could become out of sync if toggling columns happened
in rapid succession as seen in CI. Or when using a spotty connection
where responses could come back out of order.
### Why?
State was not being preserved between toggles. Leading to incorrect
columns being toggled on/off.
### How?
Updates internal column state before making the request to the server so
when a future toggle occurs it has up to date state of all columns. Also
introduces an abort controller to prevent the out of order response
issue.
This is a first pass at updating the 3.0 migration guide. While this
makes significant changes and improvements to the guide, it does not
necessarily reflect _all_ of the migration steps needed in their
entirety quite yet. Those will continue to come in.
Key changes:
- Cleans up outdated examples and removes old ones
- Updates code snippets to latest patterns
- Diffs everything for improved readability
### What?
This command from here:
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/6339
```sh
payload migrate:create --file @payloadcms/db-postgres/relationships-v2-v3
```
stopped working after db-postgers and drizzle packages were separated
### How?
Passes correct `dirname` to `getPredefinedMigration`
Additionally, adds support for `.js` files in `getPredefinedMigration`
### What?
Ensures `path` is required and only present on the fields that expect it
(all fields except row).
Deprecates `useFieldComponents` and `FieldComponentsProvider` and
instead extends the RenderField component to account for all field
types. This also improves type safety within `RenderField`.
### Why?
`path` being optional just adds DX overhead and annoyance.
### How?
Added `FieldPaths` type which is added to iterable field types. Placed
`path` back onto the ClientFieldBase type.
This PR fixes and improves a few things around localisation and
fallbackLocale:
- For the REST API `fallbackLocale` and `fallback-locale` are treated
the same for consistency with the Local API
- `fallback: false` in config is now respected, by default results will
not fallback to `defaultLocale` unless this config is true, can also be
overridden by providing an explicit `fallbackLocale` in the request
- locale specific fallbacks will now take priority over `defaultLocale`
unless an explicit fallback is provided
- Fixes types on operations to allow `'none'` as a value for
fallbackLocale
- `fallback` is now true by default if unspecified
Closes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8443
### What?
Allows configuration of the log level based on the error being thrown
and also downgrades common errors to be info instead of error by
default.
### Why?
Currently all errors result in logger.error being called which can
polute the logs with junk that is normal and doesn't need attention.
### How?
Adds a config property called `loggingLevels` that is used to override
the default log levels based on the name of the error being thrown.
Sanitize config will provide the defaulted 'info' level errors which can
be overriden in the config.
Before

After

### What?
Adds `serverProps` and `clientProps` to custom list view slot
components.
### Why?
They were missing and should be exposed.
### How?
Created custom types for list slot components and threads them through
into `renderListSlots` function and passes them through to each
`RenderServerComponent` that renders list view slot components.
### What?
Uses the `collection.dbName` property for the Mongoose model, if
defined.
### Why?
Currently, `collection.dbName` is used for the version name but not for
the actual collection name. Additionally, `autoPluralization` modifies
the `dbName` regardless. This behavior is inconsistent and contradicts
the documentation.
### How?
- Utilize `collection.dbName` instead of `collection.slug`.
- Disable `autoPluralization` for collections with a defined `dbName`.
Related: https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/discussions/9058
**BREAKING CHANGES**
If a `dbName` was previously provided, it will now be used as the
MongoDB collection name instead of the collection `slug`.
`autoPluralization` will not be applied to `dbName`.

### What?
Removes abort controllers that were shared globally inside the server
actions provider.
### Why?
Constructing them in this way will cause different fetches using the
same function to cancel one another accidentally.
These are currently causing issues when two components call server
functions, even different functions, because the global ref inside was
being overwritten and aborting the previous one.
### How?
Standardizes how we construct and destroy abort controllers. This PR is focused around creating them to pass into the exposed serverAction provider functions. There are other places where this pattern can be applied.
This fixes a peer dependency error in our monorepo, as
eslint-plugin-jsx-a11y finally supports eslint v9.
Additionally, this officially adds TypeScript 5.6 support for
typescript-eslint.
Now we show not only the collection being linked to, but also the
document title:

Previously this example was just displayed as: `Linked to Users`
- I've added a loading state in case the request is slow (verified with
fake slow connection).
- I have verified that if the `useAsTitle` is not defined, it correctly
fallbacks to the id

Previously, when filtering the internal link relationship in lexical by
typing in the relationship field, it would throw an error, as that
relationship field has a relation to "date-fields".
I'm needing https://github.com/facebook/lexical/pull/6693
I'm going to keep the dependency bump and feature updates in separate
PRs unless they're breaking changes.*
**BREAKING:**
This upgrades our lexical dependencies from 0.18.0 to 0.20.0. If you
have lexical dependencies installed in your project, you will have to
upgrade those.
Additionally, the lexical team may introduce breaking changes in this
upgrade. If you use lexical APIs directly, please consult their
changelog for more information:
https://github.com/facebook/lexical/releases
1. Open fields test suite
2. Type in relationship field, that has a relation to the numbers
collection
3. Scroll
You will get an error, as the label for the entry corresponding to the
numbers collection is of type number, and it attempts to use the
.toString() method on it
Live preview e2e tests had no CSS when tested against prod.
For all our other tests, we have a separate test/app directory that
imports CSS. Otherwise, the root-level /app directory is used.
For live-preview, we currently always run against test/live-preview/app,
that has no CSS import.
This PR adds a new test/live-preview/prod/app directory that imports CSS
and is used when we run tests against prod.
In order for this to work, I had to make import map generation smarter
Currently, Payload renders all custom components on initial compile of
the admin panel. This is problematic for two key reasons:
1. Custom components do not receive contextual data, i.e. fields do not
receive their field data, edit views do not receive their document data,
etc.
2. Components are unnecessarily rendered before they are used
This was initially required to support React Server Components within
the Payload Admin Panel for two key reasons:
1. Fields can be dynamically rendered within arrays, blocks, etc.
2. Documents can be recursively rendered within a "drawer" UI, i.e.
relationship fields
3. Payload supports server/client component composition
In order to achieve this, components need to be rendered on the server
and passed as "slots" to the client. Currently, the pattern for this is
to render custom server components in the "client config". Then when a
view or field is needed to be rendered, we first check the client config
for a "pre-rendered" component, otherwise render our client-side
fallback component.
But for the reasons listed above, this pattern doesn't exactly make
custom server components very useful within the Payload Admin Panel,
which is where this PR comes in. Now, instead of pre-rendering all
components on initial compile, we're able to render custom components
_on demand_, only as they are needed.
To achieve this, we've established [this
pattern](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/8481) of React
Server Functions in the Payload Admin Panel. With Server Functions, we
can iterate the Payload Config and return JSX through React's
`text/x-component` content-type. This means we're able to pass
contextual props to custom components, such as data for fields and
views.
## Breaking Changes
1. Add the following to your root layout file, typically located at
`(app)/(payload)/layout.tsx`:
```diff
/* THIS FILE WAS GENERATED AUTOMATICALLY BY PAYLOAD. */
/* DO NOT MODIFY IT BECAUSE IT COULD BE REWRITTEN AT ANY TIME. */
+ import type { ServerFunctionClient } from 'payload'
import config from '@payload-config'
import { RootLayout } from '@payloadcms/next/layouts'
import { handleServerFunctions } from '@payloadcms/next/utilities'
import React from 'react'
import { importMap } from './admin/importMap.js'
import './custom.scss'
type Args = {
children: React.ReactNode
}
+ const serverFunctions: ServerFunctionClient = async function (args) {
+ 'use server'
+ return handleServerFunctions({
+ ...args,
+ config,
+ importMap,
+ })
+ }
const Layout = ({ children }: Args) => (
<RootLayout
config={config}
importMap={importMap}
+ serverFunctions={serverFunctions}
>
{children}
</RootLayout>
)
export default Layout
```
2. If you were previously posting to the `/api/form-state` endpoint, it
no longer exists. Instead, you'll need to invoke the `form-state` Server
Function, which can be done through the _new_ `getFormState` utility:
```diff
- import { getFormState } from '@payloadcms/ui'
- const { state } = await getFormState({
- apiRoute: '',
- body: {
- // ...
- },
- serverURL: ''
- })
+ const { getFormState } = useServerFunctions()
+
+ const { state } = await getFormState({
+ // ...
+ })
```
## Breaking Changes
```diff
- useFieldProps()
- useCellProps()
```
More details coming soon.

### How?
URL change for correct asset
-->
### What?
Adds full support for the point field to Postgres and Vercel Postgres
adapters through the Postgis extension. Fully the same API as with
MongoDB, including support for `near`, `within` and `intersects`
operators.
Additionally, exposes to adapter args:
*
`tablesFilter`https://orm.drizzle.team/docs/drizzle-kit-push#including-tables-schemas-and-extensions.
* `extensions` list of extensions to create, for example `['vector',
'pg_search']`, `postgis` is created automatically if there's any point
field
### Why?
It's essential to support that field type, especially if the postgres
adapter should be out of beta on 3.0 stable.
### How?
* Bumps `drizzle-orm` to `0.36.1` and `drizzle-kit` to `0.28.0` as we
need this change https://github.com/drizzle-team/drizzle-orm/pull/3141
* Uses its functions to achieve querying functionality, for example the
`near` operator works through `ST_DWithin` or `intersects` through
`ST_Intersects`.
* Removes MongoDB condition from all point field tests, but keeps for
SQLite

fix: migrateRefresh migrates without previously ran migrations
chore: adds tests for database migrate:fresh and migrate:refresh
---------
Co-authored-by: Sasha <64744993+r1tsuu@users.noreply.github.com>
### What?
Moved the logic for copying the data.id to data._id to the mongoose
adapter.
### Why?
If you have any hooks that need to set the `id`, the value does not get
sent to mongodb as you would expect since it was copied before the
beforeValidate hooks.
### How?
Now data._id is assigned only in the mongodb adapter's `create`
function.
BREAKING CHANGES:
When using custom ID fields, if you have any collection hooks for
beforeValidate, beforeChange then `data._id` will no longer be assigned
as this happens now in the database adapter. Use `data.id` instead.
Closes#9000
When you update a relationship document via the document drawer, the
initial document is registering `modified: true`. We should only set
modified to true on the initial document if the relationship id has
changed.
### What?
Fixes issue with incorrect `totalDocs` value when an aggregation is used
for `find`.
Previously, `limit: 5` for example always returned `totalDocs: 5`.
### Why?
`totalDocs` must be returned correctly.
### How?
Removes `$limit` from the pipeline, as `Model.aggregatePaginate` handles
it by itself.
### What?
Because of my error, we didn't pass `populate` to `findOperation` from
the Local API.
### Why?
`populate` must work for every operation that has `depth`.
### How?
Passes `populate` in `operations/local/find.ts`, ensures it works with
the test, checked that other operations pass it.
### What?
Updated the Bulgarian translations for improved accuracy.
- Fixed translations that were not in Bulgarian. (Czech and Russian)
- Fixed translations that contained typos.
- Improved some translations to use more accurate wording.

- [x] I have read and understand the
[CONTRIBUTING.md](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md)
document in this repository.
Type of change
- [x] fix (non-breaking change)
### What?
Fixes a formatting issue that prevents
payloadcms.com/docs/beta/jobs-queue/overview from displaying properly.
There were a couple `<strong>` tags in the `jobs-queue/overview` docs
that did not have proper closing `</strong>` tags.
`create-payload-app` will now use git tags when cloning down the
templates instead of using latest from a branch.
The mechanism is cpa will read its own package.json version and use that
as a git tag prefixed w/ `v`
### What?
- Makes `jobs.workflows` optional
- Dynamically include the `workflowSlugs` select field in the jobs
collection as needed
### Why?
When configuring jobs, it should be possible to define `job` with just
some simple tasks and not be forced to define workflows.
### How?
Workflows type was made optional and optional chaining is added where
needed. The workflowSlugs field is added to the jobs collection if
workflows are defined.
Fixes #
When using postgres, the workflowSlugs being an empty enum cause an
error when drizzle fails to detect the enum already exists. This results
in the error `"enum_payload_jobs_workflow_slug" already exists`. Drizzle
tries to make the enum as: `enum_payload_jobs_workflow_slug as enum();`
and the check for existing enums only works when it has values.
## Problem
When `PayloadRequest` objects are logged using `console.log`, it creates
unstructured, multiline entries in logging services like DataDog and
Sentry. This circumvents the structured logging approach used throughout
the rest of the codebase.
## Solution
Replace `console.x` calls with the structured logging system when
logging `payload.logger.x` objects. This ensures consistent log
formatting and better integration with monitoring tools.
## Changes
- Replaced instances of `console.log` with structured logging methods
only in `@payloadcms/next`
- Maintains logging consistency across the codebase
- Improves log readability in DataDog, Sentry, and other monitoring
services

### What?
Generates types for `joins` property.
Example from our `joins` test, keys are type-safe:
<img width="708" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/f1fbbb9d-7c39-49a2-8aa2-a4793ae4ad7e">
Output in `payload-types.ts`:
```ts
collectionsJoins: {
categories: {
relatedPosts: 'posts';
hasManyPosts: 'posts';
hasManyPostsLocalized: 'posts';
'group.relatedPosts': 'posts';
'group.camelCasePosts': 'posts';
filtered: 'posts';
singulars: 'singular';
};
};
```
Additionally, we include type information about on which collection the
join is, it will help when we have types generation for `where` and
`sort`.
### Why?
It provides a better DX as you don't need to memoize your keys.
### How?
Modifies `configToJSONSchema` to generate the json schema for
`collectionsJoins`, uses that type within `JoinQuery`
### What?
Adds `populate` property to Local API and REST API operations that can
be used to specify `select` for a specific collection when it's
populated
```ts
const result = await payload.findByID({
populate: {
// type safe if you have generated types
posts: {
text: true,
},
},
collection: 'pages',
depth: 1,
id: aboutPage.id,
})
result.relatedPost // only has text and id properties
```
```ts
fetch('https://localhost:3000/api/pages?populate[posts][text]=true') // highlight-line
.then((res) => res.json())
.then((data) => console.log(data))
```
It also overrides
[`defaultPopulate`](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/8934)
Ensures `defaultPopulate` doesn't affect GraphQL.
### How?
Implements the property for all operations that have the `depth`
argument.
### What?
Handles database name with special characters. For example: `-` -
`my-awesome-app`.
### Why?
Previously, `my-awesome-app` led to this error:
```
Error: failed to create database my-awesome-app.
Details: syntax error at or near "-"
```
This can reproduced for example with `create-payload-app`, as the
generated db name is based on project's name.
### How?
Wraps the query variable to quotes, `create database "my-awesome-app"`
instead of `create database my-awesome-app`.
### What?
Uses sequential pattern for Bulk Upload instead of `Promise.all`.
### Why?
* Concurrent uploads led to filename conflicts for example when you have
`upload.png` and `upload(1).png` already and you try to upload
`upload.png`
* Potentially expensive for resources, especially with high amount of
files / sizes
### How?
Replaces `Promise.all` with `for` loop, adds indicator "Uploaded 2/20"
to the loading overlay.

Setting a custom `id` field within unnamed fields causes duplicative ID
fields to be appear in the client config. When a top-level `id` field is
detected in your config, Payload uses that instead of injecting its
default field. But when nested within unnamed fields, such as an unnamed
tab, these custom `id` fields were not being found, causing the default
field to be duplicately rendered into tables columns, etc.
### What?
Makes it possible to filter join documents using a `where` added
directly in the config.
### Why?
It makes the join field more powerful for adding contextual meaning to
the documents being returned. For example, maybe you have a
`requiresAction` field that you set and you can have a join that
automatically filters the documents to those that need attention.
### How?
In the database adapter, we merge the requested `where` to the `where`
defined on the field.
On the frontend the results are filtered using the `filterOptions`
property in the component.

### What?
Fixes support for custom endpoints with `method: 'put'`.
Previously, this didn't work:
```ts
export default buildConfigWithDefaults({
collections: [ ],
endpoints: [
{
method: 'put',
handler: () => new Response(),
path: '/put',
},
],
})
```
### Why?
We supported this in 2.0 and docs are saying that we can use `'put'` as
`method`
https://payloadcms.com/docs/beta/rest-api/overview#custom-endpoints
### How?
Implements the `REST_PUT` export for `@payloadcms/next/routes`, updates
all templates. Additionally, adds tests to ensure root/collection level
custom endpoints with all necessary methods execute properly.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8807
-->
### What?
Makes this to actually work
```ts
import type { RequestContext as OriginalRequestContext } from 'payload'
declare module 'payload' {
// Create a new interface that merges your additional fields with the original one
export interface RequestContext extends OriginalRequestContext {
myObject?: string
// ...
}
}
```
<img width="502" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/38570d3c-e8a8-48aa-a57d-6d11e79394f5">
### Why?
This is described in our docs
https://payloadcms.com/docs/beta/hooks/context#typescript therefore it
should work.
### How?
In order to get the declaration work, we need to reuse the type from the
root file `payload/src/index.js`. Additionally, removes `RequestContext`
type duplication in both `payload/src/types/index.js` and
`payload/src/index.js`.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8851
### What?
Any changes inside edit popup for the field with type `upload` and the
`relationTo` collection does nothing in context of the field, it has
affect only to collection.
I.e. when you make an edit to an uploads field in the edit drawer -
after saving and existing the drawer, your new changes are not present
until a refresh of the page.
### Why?
Previously, we were not performing a reload of the document fetch upon
saving of the doc in the edit drawer.
### How?
Now, we perform a reload (fetch) for updated docs on save within the
edit drawer.
Fixes#8837
### What?
If you have a custom field that sets the value of the field using the
`useField` hook on entry into a document - the `updatedAt` field would
be updated even when a non-owner tries to enter a locked document.
### Why?
When a field is updated in the edit view - we perform an update in
`form-state` to keep the doc in `payload-locked-documents` up to date
with the current editing status. The above scenario would hit this
update operation even on non-owner users because it was previously only
checking for `updateLastEdited` (which would get hit by the `setValue`
in the `useField` hook) so we also need to check to make sure the
current user entering a locked doc is also the owner of the document.
### How?
When performing an update to `payload-locked-documents` in
`buildFormState` - only perform the update if the current user is also
the owner of the locked document otherwise skip the `update` operation.
Fixes#8781
Adds the `x-powered-by` header to include Payload alongside Next.js
End result looks like this
```
x-powered-by:
Next.js, Payload
```
It also respects the nextConfig `poweredBy: false` to completely disable
it
Potentially fixes#9012 by disabling prefetch for all Next.js `Link`
component usage.
With prefetch left as the default and _on_, there were cases where the
prefetch could fetch stale data for Edit routes. Then, when navigating
to the Edit route, the data could be stale.
In addition, I think there is some strangeness happening on the Next.js
side where prefetched data might still come from the router cache even
though router cache is disabled.
This fix should be done regardless, but I suspect it will solve for a
lot of stale data issues.
GraphQL currently doesn't pass CORS checks as we don't expose an OPTIONS
endpoint which is used for browser preflights.
Should also fix situations like this
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8974
### What?
Fixes type for the `select` property when having `strictNullChecks:
true` or `strict: true` in tsconfig.
### Why?
`select` should provide autocompletion for users, at this point it
doesn't work with this condtiion
### How?
Makes `collectionsSelect` and `globalsSelect` properties required in
`configToJSONSchema.ts`.
Fixes
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/8550#issuecomment-2452669237
### What?
Fixes the issue with querying by `id` from REST / `overrideAccess:
false`.
For example, this didn't work:
`/api/loans?where[book.bibliography.id][equals]=67224d74257b3f2acddc75f4`
```
QueryError: The following path cannot be queried: id
```
### Why?
We support this syntax within the Local API.
### How?
Now, for simplicity we sanitize everything like
`relation.otherRelation.id` to `relation.otherRelation`
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/9008
### What?
Includes `hasMany`, `minRows`, and `maxRows` in Upload field config
options table.
### Why?
To be inline with the type definitions.
### How?
Changes to `docs/fields/upload.mdx`
### What?
Fixes `select` handling for properties inside of unnamed tabs using the
mongodb adapter.
Additionally, refactors `traverseFields` in drizzle to reuse logic from
groups / collapsible or rows if unnamed.
### Why?
`select` must work for any fields.
### How?
Fixes the `'tab'` case in `buildProjectionFromSelect` to handle when the
field is an unnamed tab.
Adds extra tests for named tabs / unnamed.
### What?
When read access is restricted on the `users` collection - restricted
users would not have access to other users complete user data object
only their IDs when accessing `user.value`.
### Why?
This is problematic when determining the lock status of a document from
a restricted users perspective as `user.id` would not exist - the user
data would not be an object in this case but instead a `string` or
`number` value for user ID
### How?
This PR properly handles both cases now and checks if the incoming user
data is an object or just a `string` / `number`.
## The SEO plugin now takes in a function to override or add in new
fields
- `fieldOverrides` has been removed
- `fields` is now a function that takes in `defaultFields` and expects
an array of fields in return
This makes it a lot easier for end users to override and extend existing
fields and add new ones. This change also brings this plugin inline with
the pattern that we use in our other plugins.
```ts
// before
seoPlugin({
fieldOverrides: {
title: {
required: true,
},
},
fields: [
{
name: 'customField',
type: 'text',
}
]
})
// after
seoPlugin({
fields: ({ defaultFields }) => {
const modifiedFields = defaultFields.map((field) => {
// Override existing fields
if ('name' in field && field.name === 'title') {
return {
...field,
required: true,
}
}
return field
})
return [
...modifiedFields,
// Add a new field
{
name: 'ogTitle',
type: 'text',
label: 'og:title',
},
]
},
})
```
## Also fixes
- Localization labels not showing up on default fields
- The inability to add before and after inputs to default fields

### What?
`auth` enabled collections show "Password" fields whenever a GraphQL
query is performed or the GraphQL playground is opened (see #8032)
You can reproduce this behavior by spinning up the `admin` test with
PostgreSQL:
```bash
pnpm dev:postgres admin
```
Open the admin UI and navigate to the `dev@payloadcms.com` document in
the `Users` collection (see screenshot below)
<img width="915" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/40624a8f-80b7-412b-b851-5e3643ffcae1">
Open the [GraphQL
playground](http://localhost:3000/api/graphql-playground)
Open the admin UI and select the user again. The password field appears
multiple times.
Subsequent GraphQL playground page refreshes lead to even more password
fields in the admin UI.
<img width="1086" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/009264bd-b153-4bf7-8fc9-8e465fc27247">
The current behavior has an impact during development and even on
production. Since the password field is added to the collection, payload
tries to add this field to the database as well (at least I could
observe at in my own project)
### Why?
In the `packages/graphql/src/schema/initCollections.ts` file, the
`initCollections` function mutates the config object by adding the
password field for the GraphQL schema (line 128). This mutation adds the
field multiple times, depending how often you open the playground. In
addition, this added field is also shown in the UI since the config
object is shared (see screenshot above).
### How?
By creating a deep copy of the object, the mutation of the configuration
does not leak additional fields to the UI or other parts of the code.
Fixes an issue where using wildcards in upload-enabled collection
mimeType restrictions would prevent files from being selected in the
bulk upload file selector.
Adds a jobs queue to Payload.
- [x] Docs, w/ examples for Vercel Cron, additional services
- [x] Type the `job` using GeneratedTypes in `JobRunnerArgs`
(@AlessioGr)
- [x] Write the `runJobs` function
- [x] Allow for some type of `payload.runTask`
- [x] Open up a new bin script for running jobs
- [x] Determine strategy for runner endpoint to either await jobs
successfully or return early and stay open until job work completes
(serverless ramifications here)
- [x] Allow for job runner to accept how many jobs to run in one
invocation
- [x] Make a Payload local API method for creating a new job easily
(payload.createJob) or similar which is strongly typed (@AlessioGr)
- [x] Make `payload.runJobs` or similar (@AlessioGr)
- [x] Write tests for retrying up to max retries for a given step
- [x] Write tests for dynamic import of a runner
The shape of the config should permit the definition of steps separate
from the job workflows themselves.
```js
const config = {
// Not sure if we need this property anymore
queues: {
},
// A job is an instance of a workflow, stored in DB
// and triggered by something at some point
jobs: {
// Be able to override the jobs collection
collectionOverrides: () => {},
// Workflows are groups of tasks that handle
// the flow from task to task.
// When defined on the config, they are considered as predefined workflows
// BUT - in the future, we'll allow for UI-based workflow definition as well.
workflows: [
{
slug: 'job-name',
// Temporary name for this
// should be able to pass function
// or path to it for Node to dynamically import
controlFlowInJS: '/my-runner.js',
// Temporary name as well
// should be able to eventually define workflows
// in UI (meaning they need to be serialized in JSON)
// Should not be able to define both control flows
controlFlowInJSON: [
{
task: 'myTask',
next: {
// etc
}
}
],
// Workflows take input
// which are a group of fields
input: [
{
name: 'post',
type: 'relationship',
relationTo: 'posts',
maxDepth: 0,
required: true,
},
{
name: 'message',
type: 'text',
required: true,
},
],
},
],
// Tasks are defined separately as isolated functions
// that can be retried on fail
tasks: [
{
slug: 'myTask',
retries: 2,
// Each task takes input
// Used to auto-type the task func args
input: [
{
name: 'post',
type: 'relationship',
relationTo: 'posts',
maxDepth: 0,
required: true,
},
{
name: 'message',
type: 'text',
required: true,
},
],
// Each task takes output
// Used to auto-type the function signature
output: [
{
name: 'success',
type: 'checkbox',
}
],
onSuccess: () => {},
onFail: () => {},
run: myRunner,
},
]
}
}
```
### `payload.createJob`
This function should allow for the creation of jobs based on either a
workflow (group of tasks) or an individual task.
To create a job using a workflow:
```js
const job = await payload.createJob({
// Accept the `name` of a workflow so we can match to either a
// code-based workflow OR a workflow defined in the DB
// Should auto-type the input
workflowName: 'myWorkflow',
input: {
// typed to the args of the workflow by name
}
})
```
To create a job using a task:
```js
const job = await payload.createJob({
// Accept the `name` of a task
task: 'myTask',
input: {
// typed to the args of the task by name
}
})
```

### What?
I noticed a spelling error in the banner of the beta docs and decided I
could save everyone some time by *running the entirety of the beta docs*
through a spellchecker.
### Why?
To fix many spelling and formatting mistakes at once.
### How?
By enabling `edit mode` in my browser and letting the built-in
spellchecker perform its magic (and changing _only_ where it made
sense).
~~Ironically, the original spelling mistake that inspired me to do this
remains unchanged as that is a part of the website repo. [PR for that is
here](https://github.com/payloadcms/website/pull/388).~~
### What?
Since the join field, we do store relationship fields values in
`ObjectID`. This wasn't true if the field is nested to an array /
blocks.
### Why?
All relationship fields values should be stored in `ObjectID`.
### How?
Fixes arrays / blocks handling in the `traverseFields.ts` function.
Before it didn't run for them.
### What?
Adds `defaultPopulate` property to collection config that allows to
specify which fields to select when the collection is populated from
another document.
```ts
import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
// The TSlug generic can be passed to have type safety for `defaultPopulate`.
// If avoided, the `defaultPopulate` type resolves to `SelectType`.
export const Pages: CollectionConfig<'pages'> = {
slug: 'pages',
// I need only slug, NOT the WHOLE CONTENT!
defaultPopulate: {
slug: true,
},
fields: [
{
name: 'slug',
type: 'text',
required: true,
},
],
}
```
### Why?
This is essential for example in case of links. You don't need the whole
document, which can contain large data but only the `slug`.
### How?
Implements `defaultPopulate` when populating relationships, including
inside of lexical / slate rich text fields.
This PR aims to fix a few issues with the notFound page and custom views
so it matches v2 behaviour:
- Non authorised users should always be redirected to the login page
regardless if not found or valid URL
- Previously notFound would render for non users too potentially
exposing valid but protected routes and creating a confusing workflow as
the UI was being rendered as well
- Custom views are now public by default
- in our `admin` test suite, the `/admin/public-custom-view` is
accessible to non users but
`/admin/public-custom-view/protected-nested-view` is not unless the
checkbox is true in the Settings global, there's e2e coverage for this
- Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8716
Documentation updated to match current implementation.
Original Doc:
```ts
import { payloadCloud } from '@payloadcms/payload-cloud'
```
Current:
```ts
import { payloadCloudPlugin } from '@payloadcms/payload-cloud'
```
---
References in docs have been updated.
### What?
Properly specifies `$lookup.from` when the collection name is singular.
### Why?
MongoDB can pluralize the collection name and so can be different for
singular ones.
### How?
Uses the collection name from the driver directly
`adapter.collections[slug].collection.name` instead of just `slug`.
The search plugin was incorrectly retrieving all locales, when it should
just be retrieving the locale of the parent document that was actively
being updated.
## BREAKING CHANGES:
If you have a localized Payload config, and you are using the `plugin-search`, we will now automatically localize the `title` field that is injected by the search plugin and this may lead to data loss. To opt out of this new behavior, you can pass `localize: false` to the plugin options.
Adds `select` which is used to specify the field projection for local
and rest API calls. This is available as an optimization to reduce the
payload's of requests and make the database queries more efficient.
Includes:
- [x] generate types for the `select` property
- [x] infer the return type by `select` with 2 modes - include (`field:
true`) and exclude (`field: false`)
- [x] lots of integration tests, including deep fields / localization
etc
- [x] implement the property in db adapters
- [x] implement the property in the local api for most operations
- [x] implement the property in the rest api
- [x] docs

### What?
Adds a way to prevent creating new documents from the admin UI in a join
field.
### Why?
There are two reasons:
1. You want to disable this any time as a feature of your admin user
experience
2. When creating a new document it is not yet possible to create the
relationship, preventing create is necessary for the workflow to make
sense.
### How?
join field has a new admin property called `allowCreate`, can be set to
false. By default the UI will never allow create when the current
document being edited does not yet have an `id`.
Fixes #
#8892
### Before
Even though the document doesn't have an ID yet, the create buttons are
shown which doesn't actually work.

### After
Initial document creation:

Prevented using `allowCreate: false`

Corrects package import paths for live preview test.
- This would cause a import glitch when trying to run the live-preview
test due to incorrect file paths.
### What?
Fixes the issue with passing a string `limit` value from user
preferences to the mongodb `.aggregate` function.
To reproduce:
- click the list view for a collection that has a join field
- set "show per page" to 100
- reload, see this:
<img width="1001" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/86c644d1-d183-48e6-bf34-0ccac23cb114">
### Why?
When using `.aggregate`, MongoDB doesn't cast a value for the `$limit`
stage to a number automatically as it's not handled by Mongoose. It's
also more convenient to store this value as a number.
### How?
Stores `limit` inside of preferences in number.
### What?
This PR aims to fix an issue in the form-builder plugin page - in the
`number` field table, where an issue with one of the columns makes the
whole table unformatted. [See issue
here](https://payloadcms.com/docs/beta/plugins/form-builder#number).
### Why?
As it stands, the whole table is being rendered without any formatting,
making understanding it very difficult.
### How?
Changes to `docs/plugins/form-builder.mdx`
`Issue`:
Previously, documents that were locked but expired would still show in
the list view / render the `DocumentLocked` modal upon other users
entering the document.
The expected outcome should be having expired locked documents seen as
unlocked to other users.
I.e:
- Removing the lock icon from expired locks in the list view.
- Prevent the `DocumentLocked` modal from appearing for other users -
requiring a take over.
`Fix`:
- Only query for locked documents that are not expired, aka their
`updatedAt` dates are greater than the the current time minus the lock
duration.
- Performs a `deleteMany` on expired documents when any user edits any
other document in the same collection.
Fixes#8778
`TODO`: Add tests
### What?
Fixes the issue with `in` querying when the collection has a join field.
### Why?
When using `.aggregate`, MongoDB doesn't cast a comma delimited value
for the `$in` operator to an array automatically as it's not handled by
Mongoose.
### How?
Sanitizes the incoming value to an array if it should.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8901
### What?
Allow specifying the defaultSort and defaultLimit to use for populating
a join field
### Why?
It is much easier to set defaults rather than be forced to always call
the join query using the query pattern ("?joins[categories][limit]=0").
### How?
See docs and type changes

While following the "Adding to an existing app" instructions for the
**beta** docs, I noticed that the pnpm installation commands for the
database adapters were missing the `@beta` tag, which will result in
errors in the project.
Fixes a potential race condition where versions could lose `latest:
true` and potentially also introduce a conflict with the `parent` field.
We now explicitly define these as we update versions in the
`saveVersion` function.
Previously, when opening e.g. a link drawer, clicking within the drawer,
and then closing it, the cursor / selection of the lexical editor will
reset to the beginning of the editor.
Now, we have dedicated logic to storing, preserving and restoring the
lexical selection when working with drawers.
This will work with all drawers. Links, uploads, relationships etc.

BREAKING CHANGE: Rename `@payloadcms/plugin-cloud` to
`@payloadcms/payload-cloud`. Anyone using the existing plugin will need
to switch to using the new package.
## Why?
Since v3 will be using _fixed versioning_, all versions of `^3` must be
available. Unfortunately, the `@payloadcms/plugin-cloud` version has
already breached that version number. Renaming will allow it to be on
the same version as other monorepo packages.
Additionally, the name `plugin-cloud` is quite ambiguous and sometimes
is confused with `plugin-cloud-storage`, so using `payload-cloud` feels
like a good move to make this more evident.
Fixes an annoying instance where on the /account page if you change your
theme then navigate away the Leaving without save popup is triggered
even though you don't need to submit a form or trigger a save in order
to change your admin theme.
This change adds support for sort with multiple fields in local API and
REST API. Related discussion #2089
Co-authored-by: Dan Ribbens <dan.ribbens@gmail.com>
### What?
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/5152 issue related to
sorting by a localized field with SQLite / Postgres database adapters.
### Why?
It was an incorrect behaviour.
### How?
Modifies the `getTableColumnFromPath` file to have correct join
conditions. Previously if you had this structure in the _locales table
_locale title parent
en A 1
es B 1
we sorted by everything that's here, but we need to sort only by the
passed locale.
Additionally fixes a typescript error in `dev.ts` that I added here
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/8834
Also, removes the condition with `joins.length` in `countDistinct`. It
was there as for this issue
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/4889 because sorting by a
localized property caused duplication. This can simnifically improve
performance for `.find` with nested querying/sorting on large data sets,
because `count(*)` is faster than `count(DISTINCT id)`
I'm extending the Slate editor with a custom component and everything
works great, except I have to import `useElement()` like this:
```tsx
import { useElement } from 'node_modules/.pnpm/@payloadcms+richtext-slate@3.0.0-beta.113_monaco-editor@0.51.0_next@15.0.0-canary.191_@babel+_qmdxs6s5hpzjhuopohgawpvl6i/node_modules/@payloadcms/richtext-slate/dist/field/providers/ElementProvider.js'
export function Element() {
const { attributes, children } = useElement()
return (
<p {...attributes} className="rich-text-preheading">
{children}
</p>
)
}
```
That's because it's not in the `@payloadcms/richtext-slate/client`
module. This PR fixes this and would allow me to do:
```tsx
import { useElement } from '@payloadcms/richtext-slate/client'
```
Apparently, `nextDev` seems to run in a different process and has its
own env variables, we can run the dev server the same way we run it for
E2Es instead via `createServer`.
Example:
```sh
pnpm add @payloadcms/plugin-sentry
```
to:
```sh
pnpm add @payloadcms/plugin-sentry@beta
```
Because of this, people can be confused with the wrong installed
version. We'll change it back on stable
Adjust drizzle init for changes in drizzle 0.35.0
https://github.com/drizzle-team/drizzle-orm/releases/tag/0.35.0
The pool/connection should now be passed as the `client` arg when
initializing drizzle.
```ts
this.drizzle = drizzle({
client: this.poolOptions ? new VercelPool(this.poolOptions) : sql,
logger,
schema: this.schema,
})
```
This was causing an issue where running `payload migrate` on Vercel was
causing drizzle to attempt to `127.0.0.1:5432` instead of the specified
environment variable in the adapter 🤔
1
`import type { Field } from 'payload/types'`
to
`import type { Field } from 'payload'`
2
`import { buildConfig } from 'payload/config'`
to
`import { buildConfig } from 'payload'`
3
```
import { SelectInput, useField } from 'payload/components/forms';
import { useAuth } from 'payload/components/utilities';
```
to
`import { SelectInput, useAuth, useField } from '@payloadcms/ui'`
4
uses `import type` for `import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'`
Fixes a missing import in field prop example in
docs/beta/admin/fields.mdx.

See comments in code for proper explanation. In some cases, where 2
richtext `editor`s referencing the same `editor` are used, the admin
panel will hang. That's because the server will send their client props
that have the same object reference down to the client twice.
Next.js sometimes does not like this and, ever since one of the v15
canaries, started to hang
## Description
The goal is to reduce CLS on collapsed/expanded state of Lexical blocks.
That state is stored as "preferences" and is different for each user.
As Payload has been working so far, if the state of a Lexical block was
"collapsed", it was rendered expanded, and when the correct state was
obtained from the server, it was collapsed producing a CLS with a poor
UX.
My original idea was to get the correct state on the first render.
Talking to @AlessioGr and @jmikrut, we saw that this can be a bit
difficult or challenging, since the feature on the server does not have
access to the Payload object, nor to the user who is making the request.
I was instructed to mimic the behavior of blocks not in Lexial
(`\ui\src\fields\Collapsible\index.tsx`). There the blocks are rendered
after the collapse/expand state is obtained in a useEffect.
In the following video, the case where the first block is collapsed is
shown, rendering everything with a "fast 4G" connection throttle.
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/078e37c7-6540-4183-a266-bd751cc9d78e
Yes, it's a slight improvement over current behavior. But it could be
much better. There are request waterfalls several levels deep, and
plenty of CLS still.
Unless there is some very big tradeoff that I'm not aware of, I think
it's worth exposing the Payload object and the user to the server in
order to get the correct state on the first render.
And if that's not possible and the request has to be made on the client,
I think initializing the state as collapsed and then expanding it is
better than not showing it at all.
Another observation that is evident from the video, is that there are
several sources or causes of CLS besides the expanded/collapsed state of
the blocks.

Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8752
Previously, trying to define a config like this:
```ts
{
type: 'text',
name: 'someText',
index: true,
},
{
type: 'array',
name: 'some',
index: true,
fields: [
{

},
],
}
```
Lead to the error:
```
Warning We've found duplicated index name across public schema. Please rename your index in either the demonstration table or the table with the duplicated index name
```
Now, if we encounter duplicates, we increment the name like this:
`collection_some_text_idx`

Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8224
Fixes an issue with PG `where` filters not being respected when
generating doc policies/permissions by utilizing the combineQueries
function in getEntityPolicies function.
Fixes#8589
### Issue:
There were problems with updating documents in
`payload-locked-documents` collection i.e when "taking over" a document
- a `patch` request is sent to `payload-locked-documents` to update the
user (owner).
However, as a result, this `update` operation would lock that
corresponding doc in `payload-locked-documents` and therefore error on
the `patch` request.
### Fix:
Disable document locking entirely from `payload-locked-documents` &
`preferences` & `migrations` collections
Fixes#8673
This PR restricts inputs with `type="file"` to only those mimetypes
specified in collection upload configs. This also works for the input in
`bulkUpload` and drag-and-drop capabilities by omitting dropped files if
they do not conform to the upload config mimetypes. This PR also assumes
that an upload config with an empty mimetype array should accept all
files since the negation of that statement makes an upload collection
redundant.
Inheriting all the fixes from drizzle moving to latest versions
## BREAKING CHANGES
If you have a prior version of @libsql/client installed in your project,
you must upgrade to 0.14.0
Filtering by `null` `number` field values or normal values with the
`exists` operator was not working in `postgres` & `sqlite`.
Was previously fixed for `mongodb`
[here](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/8416)
Now fixed for `postgres` & `sqlite` adapters as well.
In some instances, form states incorrectly setting valid to true even
when they should not be, just because no validate function is present.
This was apparent when using bulk upload drawers inside the multi-tenant
example which inserts a custom field for the TenantSelector on
documents.

fixes#8672
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8413 and
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/6460
- Builds indexes for relationships by default in the SQL schema
- Fixes `unique: true` handling with Postgres / SQLite for every type of
relationships (non-polymorphic. hasMany, polymorphic, polymorphic
hasMany) _note_: disables unique for nested to arrays / blocks
relationships in the `_rels` table.
- adds tests
2.0 PR tha ports only indexes creation
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/8446, because `unique: true`
could be a breaking change if someone has incosistent unique data in the
database.
Adds `createDatabase` method to Postgres adapters which can be used
either independently like this:
```ts
payload.db.createDatabase({
name: "some-database",
schemaName: "custom-schema"
})
```
Or
```ts
payload.db.createDatabase()
```
Which creates a database from the current configuration, this is used in
`connect` if `autoDatabaseCreate` is set to `true` (default).
You can disable this behaviour with:
```ts
postgresAdapter({ autoDatabaseCreate: false })
```
Example:
<img width="470" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/8d08c79d-9672-454c-af0f-eb802f9dcd99">
This PR makes a more clear gap between `version_createdAt` /
`version_updatedAt` and `createdAt` / `updatedAt` columns / fields in
mongodb.
- `createdAt` - This should be a new value in a new version. Before this
change it was the same all the time. Should remain the same on autosave.
- The same for `updatedAt`, but it should be updated on every change
(including autosave)
- `version_createdAt` - Should remain equal to `createdAt` from the
parent collection / table
- `version_updatedAt` - On a latest version it makes sense this be the
same as `updatedAt` from the parent collection / table, as all the
`version_*` fields should be just synced with it
Closes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8635
`withPayload.cjs` is now correctly named in the exports
The final exports in package.json looks like this
```
"./withPayload": {
"import": "./dist/withPayload.js",
"require": "./dist/cjs/withPayload.cjs",
"default": "./dist/withPayload.js"
},
```
You can now use withPayload with require inside `next.config.js` files
```
const { withPayload } = require('@payloadcms/next/withPayload')
const nextConfig = {
// Your Next.js config here
experimental: {
reactCompiler: false,
},
}
module.exports = withPayload(nextConfig)
```
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8630
- Fixes `hasMany: true` and `localized: true` on the foreign field
- Adds `limit` to the subquery instead of hardcoded `11`.
- Adds the schema path `field.on` to the subquery, without this having 2
or more relationship fields to the same collection breaks joins
- Properly checks if the field is `hasMany`
- Adds optional tenant-based cookie handling based by domain (commented
out to leave functionality out by default)
- Removes 2.0 multi-tenant example
- Updates `examples/multi-tenant-single-domain` -->
`examples/multi-tenant`
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8562
Removes `debug` option from i18n docs - never existed.
Corrects hallucinations in the docs and lays out exactly how custom
translations should be used when you want to use them in custom
components.
### Improvements
- Uses overlay modal for "logging out..." display on logout view
- If user manually logs out it takes them directly to the login page
after logout, if caused by inactivity then they will see the logout page
that explains that they were logged out due to inactivity
- Fixes issue with cookie refresh triggering even after the user logs
out
- Cleans up auth provider timeouts for refresh and force logout
- `setUser` now expects the result similar to the response from the
`/me` endpoint, which includes the token, exp, and user
### BREAKING CHANGE
If you are using the `setUser` function exposed from the `useAuth()`
provider, then you will need to make some adjustments.
`setUser` now expects the response data from auth enabled endpoints, ie
the `/me` route. This is so the cookie and expiration can be properly
set in sync when a new user is set on the provider.
```ts
// before
setUser({
id: 670524817048be0fa222fc01,
email: dev@payloadcms.com,
// ... other user properties
})
// new
setUser({
user: {
id: 670524817048be0fa222fc01,
email: dev@payloadcms.com,
// ... other user properties
},
exp: 1728398351,
token: "....eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVC...."
})
```
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8470
Cleans up the way we redirect and where it happens.
## Improvements
- When you verify, the admin panel will display a toast when it
redirects you to the login route. This is contextually helpful as to
what is happening.
- Removes dead code path, as we always set the _verifiedToken to null
after it is used.
## `handleAdminPage` renamed to `getRouteInfo`
This function no longer handles routing. It kicks that responsibility
back up to the initPage function.
## `isAdminAuthRoute` renamed to `isPublicAdminRoute`
This was inversely named as it determines if a given route is public.
Also simplifies deterministic logic here.
## `redirectUnauthenticatedUser` argument
This is no longer used or needed. We can determine these things by using
the `isPublicAdminRoute` function.
## View Style fixes
- Reset Password
- Forgot Password
- Unauthorized
Payload uses `pino` for a logger. When using the error logger
`payload.logger.error` it is possible to pass any number of arguments
like this: `payload.logger.error('Some error ocurred', err)`. However,
in this scenario, the full error will not be serialized by `pino`. It
must be passed as the `err` property inside of an object in order to be
properly serialized.
This rule ensures that a user is using this function call to properly serialize the error.
There are two of the exact same e2e tests for the join field, which
throws an error when running these tests locally because they have
identical names.
This has caused me great pain. The problem with this test is that the
page was waiting for a URL which includes a search query that never
arrives. This moves the check into a regex pattern for a more accurate
catch.
All payload css is now encapsulated inside CSS layers under `@layer
payload-default`
Any custom css will now have the highest possible specificity.
We have also provided a new layer `@layer payload` if you want to use
layers and ensure that your styles are applied after payload.
To override existing styles in a way that the existing rules of
specificity would be respected you can use the default layer like so
```css
@layer payload-default {
// my styles within the payload specificity
}
```

UI fields are now excluded by default from the bulk edit view fields
options.
If you need to have the UI field there, you can provide:
```ts
admin: {
disableBulkEdit: false
}
```
Importing `withPayload` as CommonJS using `require` does not properly
resolve. This was because the exported file path was using the `.cjs`
extension instead of `.js`.
Including this file was causing the dependency checker to error because
it was installing all `@lexical` packages on version 0.17.0, instead of
0.18.0.

This PR implements the ability to attempt to force the use of light/dark
theme in the admin panel. While I am a big advocate for the benefits
that dark mode can bring to UX, it does not always suit a clients
branding needs.
Open to discussion on whether we consider this a suitable feature for
the platform. Please feel free to add to this PR as needed.
TODO:
- [x] Implement tests (I'm open to guidance on this from the Payload
team as currently it doesn't look like it's possible to adjust the
payload config file on the fly - meaning it can't be easily placed in
the admin folder tests).

Adds abillity to customize the generated Drizzle schema with
`beforeSchemaInit` and `afterSchemaInit`. Could be useful if you want to
preserve the existing database schema / override the generated one with
features that aren't supported from the Payload config.
## Docs:
### beforeSchemaInit
Runs before the schema is built. You can use this hook to extend your
database structure with tables that won't be managed by Payload.
```ts
import { postgresAdapter } from '@payloadcms/db-postgres'
import { integer, pgTable, serial } from 'drizzle-orm/pg-core'
postgresAdapter({
beforeSchemaInit: [
({ schema, adapter }) => {
return {
...schema,
tables: {
...schema.tables,
addedTable: pgTable('added_table', {
id: serial('id').notNull(),
}),
},
}
},
],
})
```
One use case is preserving your existing database structure when
migrating to Payload. By default, Payload drops the current database
schema, which may not be desirable in this scenario.
To quickly generate the Drizzle schema from your database you can use
[Drizzle
Introspection](https://orm.drizzle.team/kit-docs/commands#introspect--pull)
You should get the `schema.ts` file which may look like this:
```ts
import { pgTable, uniqueIndex, serial, varchar, text } from 'drizzle-orm/pg-core'
export const users = pgTable('users', {
id: serial('id').primaryKey(),
fullName: text('full_name'),
phone: varchar('phone', { length: 256 }),
})
export const countries = pgTable(
'countries',
{
id: serial('id').primaryKey(),
name: varchar('name', { length: 256 }),
},
(countries) => {
return {
nameIndex: uniqueIndex('name_idx').on(countries.name),
}
},
)
```
You can import them into your config and append to the schema with the
`beforeSchemaInit` hook like this:
```ts
import { postgresAdapter } from '@payloadcms/db-postgres'
import { users, countries } from '../drizzle/schema'
postgresAdapter({
beforeSchemaInit: [
({ schema, adapter }) => {
return {
...schema,
tables: {
...schema.tables,
users,
countries
},
}
},
],
})
```
Make sure Payload doesn't overlap table names with its collections. For
example, if you already have a collection with slug "users", you should
either change the slug or `dbName` to change the table name for this
collection.
### afterSchemaInit
Runs after the Drizzle schema is built. You can use this hook to modify
the schema with features that aren't supported by Payload, or if you
want to add a column that you don't want to be in the Payload config.
To extend a table, Payload exposes `extendTable` utillity to the args.
You can refer to the [Drizzle
documentation](https://orm.drizzle.team/docs/sql-schema-declaration).
The following example adds the `extra_integer_column` column and a
composite index on `country` and `city` columns.
```ts
import { postgresAdapter } from '@payloadcms/db-postgres'
import { index, integer } from 'drizzle-orm/pg-core'
import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
export default buildConfig({
collections: [
{
slug: 'places',
fields: [
{
name: 'country',
type: 'text',
},
{
name: 'city',
type: 'text',
},
],
},
],
db: postgresAdapter({
afterSchemaInit: [
({ schema, extendTable, adapter }) => {
extendTable({
table: schema.tables.places,
columns: {
extraIntegerColumn: integer('extra_integer_column'),
},
extraConfig: (table) => ({
country_city_composite_index: index('country_city_composite_index').on(
table.country,
table.city,
),
}),
})
return schema
},
],
}),
})
```

Changes the `afterError` hook structure, adds tests / more docs.
Ensures that the `req.responseHeaders` property is respected in the
error handler.
**Breaking**
`afterError` now accepts an array of functions instead of a single
function:
```diff
- afterError: () => {...}
+ afterError: [() => {...}]
```
The args are changed to accept an object with the following properties:
| Argument | Description |
| ------------------- |
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| **`error`** | The error that occurred. |
| **`context`** | Custom context passed between Hooks. [More
details](./context). |
| **`graphqlResult`** | The GraphQL result object, available if the hook
is executed within a GraphQL context. |
| **`req`** | The
[Request](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Request)
object containing the currently authenticated `user` |
| **`collection`** | The [Collection](../configuration/collections) in
which this Hook is running against. This will be `undefined` if the hook
is executed from a non-collection endpoint or GraphQL. |
| **`result`** | The formatted error result object, available if the
hook is executed from a REST context. |
This PR addresses these issues with localized groups / tabs with
Postgres / SQLite:
- Array fields inside of localized groups. Fixes
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8322
- Select fields with `hasMany: true` inside of localized groups. Related
to 1, but still needed its own additional logic.
- Relationship (non-polymorphic / non has-many) inside of localized
groups. Previously, even just trying to define them in the config led to
a crash. Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8308
Ensures test coverage for localized groups.
**Breaking change**: ToolbarDropdown no longer receives
`groupKey={group.key}` and `items={group.items}` as props, but instead
`group={group}`
___
Similar to #8159, but in this case it allows you to disable an entire
dropdown menu, not just individual items in the dropdown.
This adds a new property to `ToolbarGroup` when used with `type:
'dropdown'`.
For example, if you add `isEnabled: () => false,` inside
`packages/richtext-lexical/src/features/shared/toolbar/textDropdownGroup.ts`
and run `pnpm dev fields`, this is what you'll see in the Lexical
editor:

This PR addresses around 500 TypeScript errors by enabling
strictNullChecks in the richtext-lexical package. In the process,
several bugs were identified and fixed.
In some cases, I applied non-null assertions where necessary, although
there may be room for further type refinement in the future. The focus
of this PR is to resolve the immediate issues without introducing
additional technical debt, rather than aiming for perfect type

export default buildConfig({
// ...
logger: pino({
name: 'test',
}),
// ...
})
```

Previously, this wasn't valid in Postgres / SQLite:
```ts
const res = await payload.find({
collection: 'polymorphic-relationships',
where: {
polymorphic: {
equals: {
relationTo: 'movies',
value: movie.id,
},
},
},
})
```
Now it works and actually in more performant way than this:
```ts
const res = await payload.find({
collection: 'polymorphic-relationships',
where: {
and: [
{
'polymorphic.relationTo': {
equals: 'movies',
},
},
{
'polymorphic.value': {
equals: 'movies',
},
},
],
},
})
```
Why? Because with the object notation, the output SQL is: `movies_id =
1` - checks exactly 1 column in the `*_rels` table, while with the
separate query by `relationTo` and `value` we need to check against
_each_ possible relationship collection with OR.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/7695
Previosuly, trying to append a new item to an array that contains
another array with localized items and enabled versions led to a unique
`_locale` and `_parent_id` error
```ts
{
name: 'nestedArrayLocalized',
type: 'array',
fields: [
{
type: 'array',
name: 'array',
fields: [
{
name: 'text',
type: 'text',
localized: true,
},
],
},
],
}
```
## Description
- Adds a new "join" field type to Payload and is supported by all database adapters
- The UI uses a table view for the new field
- `db-mongodb` changes relationships to be stored as ObjectIDs instead of strings (for now querying works using both types internally to the DB so no data migration should be necessary unless you're querying directly, see breaking changes for details
- Adds a reusable traverseFields utility to Payload to make it easier to work with nested fields, used internally and for plugin maintainers
```ts
export const Categories: CollectionConfig = {
slug: 'categories',
fields: [
{
name: 'relatedPosts',
type: 'join',
collection: 'posts',
on: 'category',
}
]
}
```
BREAKING CHANGES:
All mongodb relationship and upload values will be stored as MongoDB ObjectIDs instead of strings going forward. If you have existing data and you are querying data directly, outside of Payload's APIs, you get different results. For example, a `contains` query will no longer works given a partial ID of a relationship since the ObjectID requires the whole identifier to work.

this is gone
- Removes locked documents `editedAt` as it was redundant with the
`updatedAt` timestamp
- Adjust stale lock tests to configure the duration down to 1 second and
await it to not lose any test coverage
- DB performance changes:
1. Switch to payload.db.find instead of payload.find for
checkDocumentLockStatus to avoid populating the user and other payload
find overhead
2. Add maxDepth: 1 to user relationship
3. Add index to global slug
Uses React `cache` to memoize a lot of the work that the Payload Admin
UI had to perform in parallel, in multiple places.
Specifically, we were running `auth` in three places:
1. `not-found.tsx` - for some reason this renders even if not used
2. `initPage.ts`
3. `RootLayout`
Now, a lot of expensive calculations only happen once and are memoized
per-request. 🎉
- Adds `overrideLock` flag to `update` & `delete` operations
- Instead of throwing an `APIError` (500) when trying to update / delete
a locked document - now throw a `Locked` (423) error status
Exposes `collectionSlugs` state from the `useListDrawer` hook to control
it outside of the hook. We can't use `collectionSlug` from the hook
props because it's memoized inside of the hook state.
```ts
const [
ListDrawer,
ListDrawerToggler,
{ collectionSlugs, setCollectionSlugs },
] = useListDrawer({
});
```

Adds `resetColumnsState` method to `useTableColumns` return
Example of a `BeforeList` component for column state reset:
```ts
'use client'
import { Pill, useTableColumns } from '@payloadcms/ui'
function ResetDefaultColumnsButton() {
const { resetColumnsState } = useTableColumns()
return <Pill onClick={resetColumnsState}>Reset to default columns</Pill>
}
export { ResetDefaultColumnsButton }
```
Additionally, fixes that `setActiveColumns` didn't respect the passed
order of columns and didn't update the UI immediately
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8280
Now, the result type of this operation:
```ts
const post = await payload.findByID({
collection: "posts",
id,
disableErrors: true
})
```
is `Post | null` instead of `Post` when `disableErrors: true` is passed
Adds test for the `disableErrors` property and docs.
Email bodies in the plugin form builder now support wildcards `{{*}}`
and `{{*:table}}` to export all the form submission data in key:value
pairs with the latter formatted as a table.
Emails also fallback to a global plugin configuration item and then to
the `defaultFromAddress` address in email transport config.
Closes#8051.
- The scrolling problem reported in the issue is solved with Monaco's
`alwaysConsumeMouseWheel` property.
- In addition to that, it is necessary to dynamically adjust the height
of the editor so that it fits its content and does not require
scrolling.
- Additionally, I disabled the `overviewRuler` which is the indicator
strip on the side (above the scrollbar) that makes no sense when there
is no scroll.
**Gotchas**
- Unfortunately, there is a bit of CLS since the editor doesn't know the
height of its content before rendering. In Lexical these things are
possible since it has a lifecycle that allows interaction before or
after rendering, but this is not the case with Monaco.
- I've noticed that sometimes when I press enter the letters in the
editor flicker or move with a small, rapid shake. Maybe it has to do
with the new height being calculated as an effect.

Continuation of #8243. Strongly types the `value` argument within
`field.validate` functions:
- Uses existing internal validation types for field `validate` property
- Exports additional validation types to cover `hasMany` fields
- Includes `null` and `undefined` values
## Description
Adds a new property to `collection` / `global` configs called
`lockDocuments`.
Set to `true` by default - the lock is automatically triggered when a
user begins editing a document within the Admin Panel and remains in
place until the user exits the editing view or the lock expires due to
inactivity.
Set to `false` to disable document locking entirely - i.e.
`lockDocuments: false`
You can pass an object to this property to configure the `duration` in
seconds, which defines how long the document remains locked without user
interaction. If no edits are made within the specified time (default:
300 seconds), the lock expires, allowing other users to edit / update or
delete the document.
```
lockDocuments: {
duration: 180, // 180 seconds or 3 minutes
}
```

Fixes querying using `in` operator by polymorphic relationship value.
The previous PR https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/8191 didn't
handle the case when the incoming query value is an array and therefore
each item of the array can have a different type.
Ensures test coverage
Field validation functions currently do not type their `value` arg. This
is because the underlying `FieldBase` type breaks the type inferences
for these functions. The fix is to `Omit` the `validate` property from
this type before overriding it with our own, typed version for each
field.
Here's an example of the problem:
<img width="373" alt="Screenshot 2024-09-16 at 2 50 10 PM"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/a99e32fb-5645-4df6-82f2-0efab26b9831">
Here's an example of the fix:
<img width="363" alt="Screenshot 2024-09-16 at 3 59 42 PM"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/f83909bc-2169-4378-b5a7-5cca78b6ad64">
This PR also fixes the `hasMany` type inferences (shown above), where
the `value` type changes to an array when this property is set. Here's a
minimal example of the solution:
```ts
export type NumberField = {
type: 'number'
} & (
| {
hasMany: true
validate?: Validate<number[], unknown, unknown, NumberField>
}
| {
hasMany?: false | undefined
validate?: Validate<number, unknown, unknown, NumberField>
}
)
```
```ts
{
type: 'text',
validate: (value) => '' // value is `string`
},
{
type: 'text',
hasMany: true,
validate: (value) => '' // value is `string[]`
}
```
Disclaimer: in order for these types to properly infer their values,
`strictNullChecks: true` must be set in your `tsconfig.json`. This is
_not_ currently set in the Payload Monorepo, but consuming apps _should_
have this defined in order properly infer these types.
This PR also adds stronger types for misc. untyped values such as the
`point` field, etc.
## Description
Adds `virtual` property to the fields config. Providing `true`
completely disables the field in the DB, which is useful for [Virtual
Fields](https://payloadcms.com/blog/learn-how-virtual-fields-can-help-solve-common-cms-challenges)
Disables abillity to query by a field with `virtual: true`.
Currently, they bloat the DB with unused tables / columns, which may as
well introduce additional joins.

The `generateTitle`, `generateDescription`, `generateURL`, and
`generateImage` functions in the SEO Plugin do not currently receive any
args representing the document's entity. This means that within these
functions, it is currently not possible to discern the _type_ of
document you are working with, i.e. a collection or global. The
underlying problem here was that the request made to execute these
functions was threading through `slug` as `undefined`. This is because
the `DocumentInfoProvider` was failing to thread this prop through
context as the types suggest. Now, these functions receive their
respective `collectionConfig` and `globalConfig`.
```ts
import type { GenerateTitle } from '@payloadcms/plugin-seo/types'
import type { Page } from '@/payload-types'
const generateTitle: GenerateTitle<Page> = ({
doc,
collectionConfig,
globalConfig,
}) => {
return `Website.com — ${doc?.title}`
}
```
Previously, this worked with MongoDB but failed with Postgres / SQLite
when the `slug` field has both `localized: true` and `unique: true`.
```ts
await payload.create({
collection: "posts",
locale: "en",
data: {
slug: "my-post"
}
})
await payload.create({
collection: "posts",
locale: "de",
data: {
slug: "my-post"
}
})
```
Now, we build unique constraints and indexes in combination with the
_locale column. This should also improve query performance for fields
with both index: true and localized: true.
### Migration steps (Postgres/SQLite only)
This change updates the database schema and requires a migration (if you
have any localized fields). To apply it, run the following commands:
```sh
pnpm payload migration:create locale_unique_indexes
pnpm payload migrate
```
Note that if you use `db.push: true` which is a default, you don't have
to run `pnpm payload migrate` in the development mode, only in the
production, as Payload automatically pushes the schema to your DB with
it.
Fixes a case where in relational DBs, you can't duplicate documents if
you have localized arrays within unnamed tabs.
The `beforeDuplicate` hooks were not being run for fields within unnamed
tabs.
This PR fixes querying by a relationship field that has custom IDs in
`relationTo` with different types.
Now, in this case, we do cast the ID value in the database.
Example of the config / int test that reproduced the issue:
```ts
{
slug: 'posts-a',
fields: [],
},
{
slug: 'posts-b',
fields: [],
},
{
slug: 'posts-custom-id',
fields: [{ name: 'id', type: 'text' }],
},
{
slug: 'roots',
fields: [
{
name: 'rel',
relationTo: ['posts-a', 'posts-b', 'posts-custom-id'],
type: 'relationship',
},
],
},
```
```ts
const postA = await payload.create({ collection: 'posts-a', data: {} })
const postB = await payload.create({ collection: 'posts-b', data: {} })
const postC = await payload.create({
collection: 'posts-custom-id',
data: { id: crypto.randomUUID() },
})
const root_1 = await payload.create({
collection: 'roots',
data: {
rel: {
value: postC.id,
relationTo: 'posts-custom-id',
},
},
})
const res_1 = await payload.find({
collection: 'roots',
where: {
'rel.value': { equals: postC.id },
},
})
// COALESCE types integer and character varying cannot be matched
expect(res_1.totalDocs).toBe(1)
```

In order to have beta releases properly trigger GitHub Actions'
`published` event in our `post-release` workflow, this job must exist on
the branch the release is on.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8111 and
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8113
Before: 132 dependencies
After: 123 dependencies
This PR also contains a small performance optimization during telemetry
startup: By using the async `fs.promises.readFile` instead of
`readFileSync` we're not blocking the entire thread anymore and are
allowing other stuff to happen while the file is being read.
Also, in our dependency checker, this moves some variables out of loops,
to the module scope, as they only need to be calculated once.
We have to pin file-type to 19.3.0 and cannot upgrade it further (latest
is 19.5.0). See reasoning in
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8111#issuecomment-2348119533
Fixes an issue where duplicating documents in Postgres / SQLite would
crash because of a foreign key constraint / unique ID issue when you
have nested arrays / blocks within localized arrays / blocks.
We now run `beforeDuplicate` against all locales prior to
`beforeValidate` and `beforeChange` hooks.
This PR also fixes a series of issues in Postgres / SQLite where you
have localized groups / named tabs, and then arrays / blocks within the
localized groups / named tabs.
The SEO Plugin defines duplicative translations in both TS and JSON,
even though JSON translations are no longer in use. Translations were
still being maintained in JSON, despite this fact. This PR removes all
JSON files, replacing them with TS, and improving file organization and
overall types.
Ajv 8.14.0 => 8.17.1

This also upgrades TypeScript to 5.6.2 in our monorepo. The most
type-relevant packages are updated as well, e.g. ts-essentials and
@types/node
Resolves#8172
## Summary
This PR addresses an issue where the`id` field in the GraphQL schema is
incorrectly marked as `nullable`. The change ensures that the `id` field
is set to non-nullable, which aligns with the expectation that every
resource should have a non-nullable ID, especially when using UUIDs as
primary keys.
### Changes
- Fix: Set the `id` field type to `GraphQLNonNull` for consistency in
the GraphQL schema.
This PR changes the type of `selected` returned from the `useSelection`
hook from the `SelectionProvider` from an object to a Map.
This fixes a bug where in some situations we lose the type of the ID
which can break data entry when using postgres, due to keys being cast
to strings inside of objects which doesn't happen when using a Map.
This PR also fixes a CSS bug with the checkbox when it should be
partially selected.
```ts
// before
selected: Record<number | string, boolean>
// after
selected: Map<number | string, boolean>
```
This means you now need to read the data differently than before.
```ts
// before
Object.entries(selected).forEach(([key, value]) => {
// do something
})
// after
for (const [key, value] of selected) {
// do something
}
```
Although the `<FieldLabel />` component receives a `field` prop, it does
not use this prop to extract the `label` from the field. This is
currently only an issue when rendering this component directly, such as
within `admin.components.Label`. The label simply won't appear unless
explicitly provided, despite it being passed as `field.label`. This is
not an issue when rendering field components themselves, because they
properly thread this value through as a top-level prop.
Here's an example of the issue:
```tsx
import type { TextFieldLabelServerComponent } from 'payload'
import { FieldLabel } from '@payloadcms/ui'
import React from 'react'
export const MyCustomLabelComponent: TextFieldLabelServerComponent = ({ clientField }) => {
return (
<FieldLabel
field={clientField}
label={clientField.label} // this should not be needed!
/>
)
}
```
Here is the end result:
```tsx
import type { TextFieldLabelServerComponent } from 'payload'
import { FieldLabel } from '@payloadcms/ui'
import React from 'react'
export const MyCustomLabelComponent: TextFieldLabelServerComponent = ({ clientField }) => {
return <FieldLabel field={clientField} />
}
```
Fixes a type error when using server components for field labels,
descriptions, and errors. The `clientField` prop will always exist, so
the types just need to be reflective of this. Here's an example:
```tsx
import type { TextFieldServerLabelComponent } from 'payload'
import { FieldLabel } from '@payloadcms/ui'
import React from 'react'
export const MyServerFieldLabelComponent: TextFieldServerLabelComponent = ({ clientField }) => {
return <FieldLabel field={clientField} /> // `TextFieldClientWithoutType | undefined` is not assignable to type `ClientFieldWithoutType`
}
```

## Description
### TL;DR:
It's currently not possible to render our field components from a server
component because their `field` prop is the original field config, not
the _client_ config which our components require. Currently, the `field`
prop passed into custom fields changes type depending on whether it's a
server or client component, leaving server components without any access
to the client field config or mechanism to acquire it.
This PR passes the client config to all server field components through
a new `clientField` prop. This allows the following in a server
component, which is very similar to how client field components
currently work:
Server component:
```tsx
import { TextField } from '@payloadcms/ui'
import type { TextFieldServerComponent } from 'payload'
export const MyCustomServerField: TextFieldServerComponent = ({ clientField }) => {
return <TextField field={clientField} />
}
```
Client component:
```tsx
'use client'
import { TextField } from '@payloadcms/ui'
import type { TextFieldClientComponent } from 'payload'
export const MyCustomClientField: TextFieldClientComponent = ({ field }) => {
return <TextField field={field} />
}
```
### Full Background
If you have a custom field component, and it's a server component, there
is currently no way to pass the field prop into Payload's client-side
field components.
Here's an example of the problem:
```tsx
import { TextField } from '@payloadcms/ui'
import type { TextFieldServerComponent } from 'payload'
import React from 'react'
export const MyServerComponent: TextFieldServerComponent = (props) => {
const { field } = props
return (
<TextField field={field} /> // This is not possible
)
}
```
The config needs to be transformed into a client config, however,
because of the sheer number of hard-to-find arguments that the
`createClientField` requires, we cannot use it in its raw form.
Here is another example of the problem:
```tsx
import { TextField } from '@payloadcms/ui'
import { createClientField } from '@payloadcms/ui/utilities/createClientField'
import type { TextFieldServerComponent } from 'payload'
import React from 'react'
export const MyServerComponent: TextFieldServerComponent = ({ createClientField }) => {
const clientField = createClientField({...}) // Not a good option bc it requires many hard-to-find args
return (
<TextField field={clientField} />
)
}
```
Theoretically, we could preformat a `createFieldConfig` function so it
can simply be called without arguments:
```tsx
import { TextField } from '@payloadcms/ui'
import type { TextFieldServerComponent } from 'payload'
import React from 'react'
export const MyServerComponent: TextFieldServerComponent = ({ createClientField }) => {
return <TextField field={createClientField()} />
}
```
But this means the field config would be evaluated twice unnecessarily,
including label functions, etc.
The right way to fix this is to simply pass the client config to server
components through a new `clientField` prop:
```tsx
import { TextField } from '@payloadcms/ui'
import type { TextFieldServerComponent } from 'payload'
import React from 'react'
export const MyServerComponent: TextFieldServerComponent = ({ clientField }) => {
return <TextField field={clientField} />
}
```

## Description
Currently, you cannot create, delete, or duplicate documents within the
document drawer directly. To create a document within a relationship
field, for example, you must first navigate to the parent field and open
the "create new" drawer. Similarly (but worse), to duplicate or delete a
document, you must _navigate to the parent document to perform these
actions_ which is incredibly disruptive to the content editing workflow.
This becomes especially apparent within the relationship field where you
can edit documents inline, but cannot duplicate or delete them. This PR
supports all document-level actions within the document drawer so that
these actions can be performed on-the-fly without navigating away.
Inline duplication flow on a polymorphic "hasOne" relationship:

Closes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/7952
Adds support for `in` and `not_in` operator against JSON field filters.
The following queries are now valid in postgres as well, previously it
only worked in mongo
```ts
await payload.find({
collection: 'posts',
where: {
'data.value': {
in: ['12', '13', '14'],
},
},
context: {
disable: true,
},
})
await payload.find({
collection: 'posts',
where: {
'data.value': {
not_in: ['12', '13', '14'],
},
},
context: {
disable: true,
},
})
```
The `BlockField` type is not representative of the underlying "blocks"
field type, which is plural, i.e. `BlocksField`. This is a semantic
change that will better align the type with the field.
## Breaking Changes
Types related to the `blocks` field have change names. If you were using
the `BlockField` or related types in your own applications, simply
change the import name to be plural and instead of singular.
Old (singular):
```ts
import type {
BlockField,
BlockFieldClient,
BlockFieldValidation,
BlockFieldDescriptionClientComponent,
BlockFieldDescriptionServerComponent,
BlockFieldErrorClientComponent,
BlocksFieldErrorServerComponent,
BlockFieldLabelClientComponent,
BlockFieldLabelServerComponent,
} from 'payload'
```
New (plural):
```ts
import type {
BlocksField,
BlocksFieldClient,
BlocksFieldValidation,
BlocksFieldDescriptionClientComponent,
BlocksFieldDescriptionServerComponent,
BlocksFieldErrorClientComponent,
BlocksFieldErrorServerComponent,
BlocksFieldLabelClientComponent,
BlocksFieldLabelServerComponent,
} from 'payload'
```
## Description
Fixes the bug I reported in
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8139 where the casing of
the defined value (camelCase) of Vercel's Postgres database adapter does
not match the casing of the package (kebab-case).
Closes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/7867
Problem: currently, setting an
```ts
admin: {
width: '30%'
}
```
does not work for fields inside a row or similar (group, array etc.)
Solution: when we render the field, we set a CSS variable
`--field-width` with the value of `admin.width`. This allows us to
calculate the correct width for a field in CSS by doing `flex: 0 1
var(--field-width);`
It also allows us to properly handle `gap` with `flex-wrap: wrap;`
Notes: added playwright tests to ensure widths are correctly rendered

## Description
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8107
This has been confusing for people from countries where characters
aren't latin, for example the Japanese file name:
フェニックス.png
Turns into:
ãã§ããã¯ã¹.png
Additionally, ensures type-safety for `DEFAULT_OPTIONS` and removes
unused `fileHandler` property from there, which isn't defined in the
`FetchAPIFileUploadOptions` type.

## Description
Fixes#8038, which was broken in #7817
I'm not entirely sure if this change violates the original intent of the
"base" utility, which from what I understand was introduced for
scalability reasons. Either way, I think it's a good idea to keep the
indent at 40px all the time.
The reason for this is that browsers use 40px as the indentation setting
for lists, and using that setting the indented paragraphs and headings
match the lists. See https://github.com/facebook/lexical/pull/4025

## Description
Currently, there is no way of typing custom server field components.
This is because internally, all field components are client components,
and so these were never fully typed. For example, the docs currently
indicate for all custom fields to be typed in this way:
Old:
```tsx
export const MyClientTextFieldComponent: React.FC<TextFieldProps>
```
But if your component is a server component, you will never receive the
fully typed `field` prop, `payload` prop, etc. unless you've typed that
yourself using some of the underlying utilities. So to fix this, every
field now explicitly exports a type for each environment:
New:
- Client component:
```tsx
'use client'
export const MyClientTextFieldComponent: TextFieldClientComponent
```
- Server component:
```tsx
export const MyServerTextFieldComponent: TextFieldServerComponent
```
This pattern applies to every field type, where the field name is
prepended onto the component type.
```ts
import type {
TextFieldClientComponent,
TextFieldServerComponent,
TextFieldClientProps,
TextFieldServerProps,
TextareaFieldClientComponent,
TextareaFieldServerComponent,
TextareaFieldClientProps,
TextareaFieldServerProps,
// ...and so on for each field type
} from 'payload'
```
## BREAKING CHANGES
We are no longer exporting `TextFieldProps` etc. for each field type.
Instead, we now export props for each client/server environment
explicitly. If you were previously importing one of these types into
your custom component, simply change the import name to reflect your
environment.
Old:
```tsx
import type { TextFieldProps } from 'payload'
```
New:
```tsx
import type { TextFieldClientProps, TextFieldServerProps } from 'payload'
```

## Description
By default all api requests are creating transactions due to the
authentication stategy. This change removes transactions for auth and
login requests. This should only happen when the database needs to make
changes in which case the auth strategy or login lockout updates will
invoke their own transactions still.
This should improve performance without any sacrifice to database
consistency.

## Description
Currently, the relationship field's _value(s)_ each render and controls
its own document drawer. This has led to `hasMany` relationships
processing a potentially large number of drawers unnecessarily. But the
real problem is when attempting to perform side-effects as a result of a
drawer action. Currently, when you change the value of a relationship
field, all drawers within are (rightfully) unmounted because the
component representing the value was itself unmounted. This meant that
you could not update the title of a document, for example, then update
the underlying field's value, without also closing the document drawer
outright. This is needed in order to support things like creating and
duplicating documents within document drawers (#7679).

Previously, on some machines this command:
`pnpx create-payload-app@beta app` created a project using `npm`,
instead of `pnpm`, the same with `yarn`.
Also, the way we detected the package manager was always prioritizing
`pnpm`, even if they executed the command with `yarn` / `npm`. Now we
are relying only on from which package manager user executed
`create-payload-app`.
The code for detection is grabbed from create-next-app

## Description
Reduces the number of client-side requests made by the relationship
field component, and fixes the visual "blink" of the field's value on
initial load. Does so through a new `useIgnoredEffect` hook that allows
this component's effects to be precisely triggered based on whether a
only _subset_ of its dependencies have changed, which looks something
like this:
```tsx
// ...
useIgnoredEffect(() => {
// Do something
}, [deps], [ignoredDeps])
```
"Ignored deps" are still treated as normal dependencies of the
underlying `useEffect` hook, but they do not cause the provided function
to execute. This is useful if you have a list of dependencies that
change often, but need to scope your effect's logic to explicit
dependencies within that list. This is a typical pattern in React using
refs, just standardized within a reusable hook.
This significantly reduces the overall number of re-renders and
duplicative API requests within the relationship field because the
`useEffect` hooks that control the fetching of these related documents
were running unnecessarily often. In the future, we really ought to
leverage the `RelationshipProvider` used in the List View so that we can
also reduce the number of duplicative requests across _unrelated fields_
within the same document.

We noticed that we can bring functions down to the client directly
without having to wrap them in a component first. This greatly
simplifies the loading of all lexical client components
**BREAKING:**
- `createClientComponent` is no longer exported as it's not needed
anymore
- The exported `ClientComponentProps` type has been renamed to
`BaseClientFeatureProps`.
- The order of arguments in `sanitizeClientEditorConfig` has changed
Removes `loggerOptions` and `loggerDestination` from `initOptions`
(these were not able to be used anyway).
Creates new `logger` property on the Payload config.
```ts
// Logger options only
logger: {
level: 'info',
}
// Logger options with destination stream
logger: {
options: {
level: 'info',
},
destination: process.stdout
},
// Logger instance
logger: pino({ name: 'my-logger' })
```
Now enforcing curly brackets on all if statements. Includes auto-fixer.
```ts
// ❌ Bad
if (foo) foo++;
// ✅ Good
if (foo) {
foo++;
}
```
Note: this did not lint the `drizzle` package or any `db-*` packages.
This will be done in the future.
## Description
Payload localization works on a field-by-field basis. As you can nest
fields within other fields, you could potentially nest a localized field
within a localized field—but this would be redundant and unnecessary.
There would be no reason to define a localized field within a localized
parent field, given that the entire data structure from the parent field
onward would be localized.
Up until this point, Payload would _allow_ you to nest a localized field
within another localized field, and this might have worked in MongoDB
but it will throw errors in Postgres.
Now, Payload will automatically remove the `localized: true` property
from sub-fields within `sanitizeFields` if a parent field is localized.
This could potentially be a breaking change if you have a configuration
with MongoDB that nests localized fields within localized fields.
## Migrating
You probably only need to migrate if you are using MongoDB, as there,
you may not have noticed any problems. But in Postgres or SQLite, this
would have caused issues so it's unlikely that you've made it too far
without experiencing issues due to a nested localized fields config.
In the event you would like to keep existing data in this fashion, we
have added a `compatibility.allowLocalizedWithinLocalized` flag to the
Payload config, which you can set to `true`, and Payload will then
disable this new sanitization step.
Set this compatibility flag to `true` only if you have an existing
Payload MongoDB database from pre-3.0, and you have nested localized
fields that you would like to maintain without migrating.
Move `ui` and `translations` from peerDeps into deps for a few packages.
Users should not have to install these directly unless they are making
customizations.

The enabledCollections and disabledCollections properties of the
RelationshipFeature were not being sent to the client and therefore did
not have the expected effect.
Now those 2 properties are sent to the client via the
`clientFeatureProps` property.
## Description
In Postgres, localized blocks or arrays that contain other array / block
/ relationship fields were not properly storing locales in the database.
Now they are! Need to check a few things yet:
- Ensure test coverage is sufficient
- Test localized array, with non-localized array inside of it
- Test localized block with relationship field within it
- Ensure `_rels` table gets the `locale` column added if a single
non-localized relationship exists within a localized array / block
Fixes step 6 as identified in #7805
## Description
Fixes a race condition where you could switch locales and have autosave
trigger with old locale data.
By adding the `key` to the `Document` component, we will ensure that the
entire `Document` will be un-mounted and re-mounted between locale
switches.
Fixes:
- issue with publish button double saving on keyboard command
- versions diffs not showing if fields are tabs

- navigation on versions not working for perPage and pagination

This fixes that type in the website template:
3d86bf1974/templates/website/src/app/components/RichText/serialize.tsx (L24)
Now, JsonObject still ensures that only objects can be passed, but it's
weak enough to allow non-dynamic types like the ones we generate in
payload-types.
The "JSON" part of this type has no meaning anymore, as it does allow
objects with functions now. However, we can still use it to signal to
the user that this should be JSON-serializable. It's more clear than
just using Record<string, unknown>
Dedicated adapter for Vercel Postgres
- Uses the `@vercel/postgres` package under the hood.
- No `pg` dependency, speeds up invocation
- Includes refactoring all base postgres functionality into a
`BasePostgresAdapter` type, which will ease implementation of [other
adapters supported by
drizzle-orm](https://orm.drizzle.team/docs/get-started-postgresql)
## Usage
```ts
import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
import { vercelPostgresAdapter } from '@payloadcms/db-vercel-postgres'
export default buildConfig({
db: vercelPostgresAdapter({
pool: {
connectionString: process.env.DATABASE_URI,
},
}),
// ...rest of config
})
```
### Automatic Connection String Detection
Have Vercel automatically detect from environment variable (typically
`process.env.POSTGRES_URL`)
```ts
export default buildConfig({
db: postgresAdapter(),
// ...rest of config
})
```
Supports `hasMany` upload fields, similar to how `hasMany` works in
other fields, i.e.:
```ts
{
type: 'upload',
relationTo: 'media',
hasMany: true
}
```

## Description
Closes#7784 by properly handling custom collection description
components via `admin.components.Description`. This component was
incorrectly added to the `admin.components.edit` key, and also was never
handled on the front-end. This was especially misleading because the
client-side config had a duplicative key in the proper position.
## Breaking Changes
This PR is only labeled as a breaking change because the key has changed
position within the config. If you were previously defining a custom
description component on a collection, simply move it into the correct
position:
Old:
```ts
{
admin: {
components: {
edit: {
Description: ''
}
}
}
}
```
New:
```ts
{
admin: {
components: {
Description: ''
}
}
}

## Description
Threads the field config to all "field subcomponents" through props,
i.e. field label, description, error, etc. This way, the field config
that controls any particular component is easily accessible and strongly
typed, i.e. `props.field.maxLength`. This is true for both server and
client components, whose server-side props are now also contextually
typed. This behavior was temporarily removed in #7474 due to bloating
HTML, but has since been resolved in #7620. This PR also makes
significant improvements to component types by exporting explicit types
for _every component of every field_, each with its own client/server
variation. Now, a custom component can look something like this:
```tsx
import type { TextFieldLabelServerComponent } from 'payload'
import React from 'react'
export const CustomLabel: TextFieldLabelServerComponent = (props) => {
return (
<div>{`The max length of this field is: ${props?.field?.maxLength}`}</div>
)
}
```
The following types are now available:
```ts
import type {
TextFieldClientComponent,
TextFieldServerComponent,
TextFieldLabelClientComponent,
TextFieldLabelServerComponent,
TextFieldDescriptionClientComponent,
TextFieldDescriptionServerComponent,
TextFieldErrorClientComponent,
TextFieldErrorServerComponent,
// ...and so one for each field
} from 'payload'
```
BREAKING CHANGES:
In order to strictly type these components, a few breaking changes have
been made _solely to type definitions_. This only effects you if you are
heavily using custom components.
Old
```ts
import type { ErrorComponent, LabelComponent, DescriptionComponent } from 'payload'
```
New:
```ts
import type {
FieldErrorClientComponent,
FieldErrorServerComponent,
FieldLabelClientComponent,
FieldLabelServerComponent,
FieldDescriptionClientComponent,
FieldDescriptionServerComponent,
// Note: these are the generic, underlying types of the more stricter types described above ^
// For example, you should use the type that is explicit for your particular field and environment
// i.e. `TextFieldLabelClientComponent` and not simply `FieldLabelClientComponent`
} from 'payload'
```

This noticeably improves performance in the admin panel, for example
when there are multiple richtext editors on one page (& likely
performance in other areas too, though I mainly tested rich text).
The babel plugin currently only optimizes files with a 'use client'
directive at the top - thus we have to make sure to add use client
wherever possible, even if it's imported by a parent client component.
There's one single component that broke when it was compiled using the
React compiler (it stopped being reactive and failed one of our admin
e2e tests):
150808f608
opting out of it completely fixed that issue
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/7366
Example: richText editor 1 and 2 both have UploadFeature. richText
editor 1 calls UploadFeature() with custom fields, richText editor 2
calls UploadFeature() with NO custom fields. Before this PR, richText
editor 1 would not have had any custom fields, as richText editor 2 will
override the feature object (specifically its props).

Old blank templates had invalid pregenerated importMap. Would error for
fresh apps from create-payload-app. And website was on an old version
riddled with bugs
Also a nice performance improvement. The list drawer was previously
fetching data with depth 1. This will cause the relationship cell to
break, as it expects the relationship data to be a string/number, not a
populated object with the id inside.
Now, it fetches using depth 0 - same as the normal list view

If it's undefined/null => Fallback Component may be rendered
If it's false => No component should be rendered - as if an empty
component was passed in
This ensures that the user does not have to install `@payloadcms/ui`
anymore, which previously exported an empty component to be used in
component paths
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/7677
- Payload bin scripts were not properly working on windows
- Use tsx by default instead of swc, as swc does not handle next/cache
imports without the .js at the end
- Support other node runtimes through --disable-transpile flag
## Description
We've since lost the ability to override the document view at the
root-level. This was a feature that made it possible to override _the
entire document routing/view structure_, including the document
header/tabs and all nested routes within, i.e. the API route/view, the
Live Preview route/view, etc. This is distinct from the "default" edit
view, which _only_ targets the component rendered within the "edit" tab.
This regression was introduced when types were simplified down to better
support "component paths" here: #7620. The `default` key was incorrectly
used as the "root" view override. To continue to support stricter types
_and_ root view overrides, a new `root` key has been added to the
`views` config.
You were previously able to do this:
```tsx
import { MyComponent } from './MyComponent.js'
export const MyCollection = {
// ...
admin: {
views: {
Edit: MyComponent
}
}
}
```
This is now done like this:
```tsx
export const MyCollection = {
// ...
admin: {
views: {
edit: {
root: {
Component: './path-to-my-component.js'
}
}
}
}
}
```
Some of the documentation was also incorrect according to the new
component paths API.

## Checklist:
- [x] Existing test suite passes locally with my changes

- regenerates the lockfile
- upgrades pnpm from v8 to v9.7.0 minimum
- ensures playwright does not import payload config. Even after our
importmap revamp that made the payload config server-only / node-safe, I
was getting these `Error: Invariant: AsyncLocalStorage accessed in
runtime where it is not available` errors in combination with pnpm v9
and lockfile regeneration.
This does not happen with pnpm v8, however I'm still blaming playwright
for this, as this does not happen in dev and we've had this specific
error with playwright in the past when we were importing the payload
config. Perhaps it's related to both playwright and the future Next.js
process importing the same config file, and not related to the config
file containing client-side React code.
Making sure playwright doesn't import the config fixed it (it was
importing it through the import map generation). The import map
generation is now run in a separate process, and playwright simply waits
for it
- One positive thing: this pr fixes a bunch of typescript errors with
react-select components. We got those errors because react-select types
are not compatible with react 19. lockfile regeneration fixed that (not
related to pnpm v9) - probably because we were installing mismatching
react versions (I saw both `fb9a90fa48-20240614` and `06d0b89e-20240801`
in our lockfile). I have thus removed the caret for react and react-dom
in our package.json - now it's consistent
This lowers the module count by 31 modules
BREAKING: Migration-related lexical modules are now exported from
`@payloadcms/richtext-lexical/migrate` instead of
`@payloadcms/richtext-lexical`
Allow a compound index to be used for upload collections via a
`filenameCompoundIndex` field. Previously, `filename` was always treated
as unique.
Usage:
```ts
{
slug: 'upload-field',
upload: {
// Slugs to include in compound index
filenameCompoundIndex: ['filename', 'alt'],
},
}
```
This PR makes three major changes to the codebase:
1. [Component Paths](#component-paths)
Instead of importing custom components into your config directly, they
are now defined as file paths and rendered only when needed. That way
the Payload config will be significantly more lightweight, and ensures
that the Payload config is 100% server-only and Node-safe. Related
discussion: https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/discussions/6938
2. [Client Config](#client-config)
Deprecates the component map by merging its logic into the client
config. The main goal of this change is for performance and
simplification. There was no need to deeply iterate over the Payload
config twice, once for the component map, and another for the client
config. Instead, we can do everything in the client config one time.
This has also dramatically simplified the client side prop drilling
through the UI library. Now, all components can share the same client
config which matches the exact shape of their Payload config (with the
exception of non-serializable props and mapped custom components).
3. [Custom client component are no longer
server-rendered](#custom-client-components-are-no-longer-server-rendered)
Previously, custom components would be server-rendered, no matter if
they are server or client components. Now, only server components are
rendered on the server. Client components are automatically detected,
and simply get passed through as `MappedComponent` to be rendered fully
client-side.
## Component Paths
Instead of importing custom components into your config directly, they
are now defined as file paths and rendered only when needed. That way
the Payload config will be significantly more lightweight, and ensures
that the Payload config is 100% server-only and Node-safe. Related
discussion: https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/discussions/6938
In order to reference any custom components in the Payload config, you
now have to specify a string path to the component instead of importing
it.
Old:
```ts
import { MyComponent2} from './MyComponent2.js'
admin: {
components: {
Label: MyComponent2
},
},
```
New:
```ts
admin: {
components: {
Label: '/collections/Posts/MyComponent2.js#MyComponent2', // <= has to be a relative path based on a baseDir configured in the Payload config - NOT relative based on the importing file
},
},
```
### Local API within Next.js routes
Previously, if you used the Payload Local API within Next.js pages, all
the client-side modules are being added to the bundle for that specific
page, even if you only need server-side functionality.
This `/test` route, which uses the Payload local API, was previously 460
kb. It is now down to 91 kb and does not bundle the Payload client-side
admin panel anymore.
All tests done
[here](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload-3.0-demo/tree/feat/path-test)
with beta.67/PR, db-mongodb and default richtext-lexical:
**dev /admin before:**

**dev /admin after:**

---
**dev /test before:**

**dev /test after:**

---
**build before:**

**build after::**

### Usage of the Payload Local API / config outside of Next.js
This will make it a lot easier to use the Payload config / local API in
other, server-side contexts. Previously, you might encounter errors due
to client files (like .scss files) not being allowed to be imported.
## Client Config
Deprecates the component map by merging its logic into the client
config. The main goal of this change is for performance and
simplification. There was no need to deeply iterate over the Payload
config twice, once for the component map, and another for the client
config. Instead, we can do everything in the client config one time.
This has also dramatically simplified the client side prop drilling
through the UI library. Now, all components can share the same client
config which matches the exact shape of their Payload config (with the
exception of non-serializable props and mapped custom components).
This is breaking change. The `useComponentMap` hook no longer exists,
and most component props have changed (for the better):
```ts
const { componentMap } = useComponentMap() // old
const { config } = useConfig() // new
```
The `useConfig` hook has also changed in shape, `config` is now a
property _within_ the context obj:
```ts
const config = useConfig() // old
const { config } = useConfig() // new
```
## Custom Client Components are no longer server rendered
Previously, custom components would be server-rendered, no matter if
they are server or client components. Now, only server components are
rendered on the server. Client components are automatically detected,
and simply get passed through as `MappedComponent` to be rendered fully
client-side.
The benefit of this change:
Custom client components can now receive props. Previously, the only way
for them to receive dynamic props from a parent client component was to
use hooks, e.g. `useFieldProps()`. Now, we do have the option of passing
in props to the custom components directly, if they are client
components. This will be simpler than having to look for the correct
hook.
This makes rendering them on the client a little bit more complex, as
you now have to check if that component is a server component (=>
already has been rendered) or a client component (=> not rendered yet,
has to be rendered here). However, this added complexity has been
alleviated through the easy-to-use `<RenderMappedComponent />` helper.
This helper now also handles rendering arrays of custom components (e.g.
beforeList, beforeLogin ...), which actually makes rendering custom
components easier in some cases.
## Misc improvements
This PR includes misc, breaking changes. For example, we previously
allowed unions between components and config object for the same
property. E.g. for the custom view property, you were allowed to pass in
a custom component or an object with other properties, alongside a
custom component.
Those union types are now gone. You can now either pass an object, or a
component. The previous `{ View: MyViewComponent}` is now `{ View: {
Component: MyViewComponent} }` or `{ View: { Default: { Component:
MyViewComponent} } }`.
This dramatically simplifies the way we read & process those properties,
especially in buildComponentMap. We can now simply check for the
existence of one specific property, which always has to be a component,
instead of running cursed runtime checks on a shared union property
which could contain a component, but could also contain functions or
objects.

Form Builder Plugin BeforeEmail hook now takes a generic for your
generated types and it has the full hook params available to it.
```ts
import type { BeforeEmail } from '@payloadcms/plugin-form-builder'
// Your generated FormSubmission type
import type {FormSubmission} from '@payload-types'
// Pass it through and 'data' or 'originalDoc' will now be typed
const beforeEmail: BeforeEmail<FormSubmission> = (emailsToSend, beforeChangeParams) => {
// modify the emails in any way before they are sent
return emails.map((email) => ({
...email,
html: email.html, // transform the html in any way you'd like (maybe wrap it in an html template?)
}))

You can now override the apiKey field with access control by adding this
field to your auth collection:
```ts
{
name: 'apiKey',
type: 'text',
access: {
update: ({ req }) => req.user.role === 'admin',

Translated labels are now also supported.
Note that `siblingData` isn't working still in FieldAccess control and
`data` only works in non-dynamic fields, eg. fields not in an array or

Fixes#7492
In order to run createMigration, we need to read in the previous
snapshot file if one exists. When that snapshot was generated from an
older version of drizzle-kit, we have to first migrate it up match the
latest version for drizzle to generate the new migration. This change
adds in the call to check the version and migrate the snapshot if
needed.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/6823
Allows the server to initialize the AuthProvider via props. Renames
`HydrateClientUser` to `HydrateAuthProvider`. It now only hydrates the
permissions as the user can be set from props. Permissions can be
initialized from props, but still need to be hydrated for some pages as
access control can be specific to docs/lists etc.
**BREAKING CHANGE**
- Renames exported `HydrateClientUser` to `HydrateAuthProvider`
We are now bumping up the Next canary version to `15.0.0-canary.104` and

LivePreview data was stale if the user entered data while the socket
connection was being established. This change ensures fresh data is
fetched after the connection is established.
This is easy to see when turning on 4G connection and in CI, where it is
especially slow.
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/7495
When the Upload HTML Converter was called from the local API, the upload
document did not populate properly due to overrideAccess not being
passed through to the dataloader. This PR also adds new properties to
the afterRead field hook, so that these can be used in the lexical html
field.
Reproduction here:
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/tree/chore/reproduce-html-converter-issue
**BREAKING:** If you define your own, custom lexical HTML Converters
that have sub-nodes, or if you directly call the
`convertLexicalNodesToHTML` function anywhere, you now need to pass
through the `showHiddenFields`, draft and `overrideAccess` props to the
`convertLexicalNodesToHTML` function. These are available in the
arguments of your HTML Converter function

Now email and username fields are rendered with the RenderFields
component, making them behave similarly to other fields. They now appear
and can respect doc permissions, readOnly settings, etc.
This PR
- upgrades lexical and ports all bug fixes from the playground over
- adds table action buttons. When hovering the edges of the table,
buttons pop up to easily add a new table column or row
- adds an html converter for the table feature
- makes the placeholder shown in the editor when no text is present
accessible
**BREAKING:** This upgrades lexical from 0.16.1 to 0.17.0. If you have
any lexical packages installed in your project, please update them
accordingly. Additionally, if you depend on the lexical APIs, please
consult their changelog, as lexical may introduce breaking changes:

Fixes#7354
Since the `defaultIDType` for IDs in `postgres` are of type `number` -
the `contains` operator should be available in the filter options.
This PR checks the `defaultIDType` of ID and properly outputs the
correct component type for IDs
I.e if ID is of type `number` - the filter operators for ID should
correspond to the the operators of type number as well
The `contains` operator only belongs on fields of type string, aka of
component type `text`

- Updates admin UI with more condensed spacing throughout.
- Improves hover states and read-only states for various components.
- Removes the `Merriweather` font from `next/font` and replaces with
stack of system serif fonts and fallbacks (Georgia, etc). Closes#7257
## BREAKING CHANGES
- Custom components and styling that don't utilize Payload's CSS/SCSS
variables may need adjustments to match the updated styling.
- If you are using the `Merriweather` font, you will need to manually
configure `next/font` in your own project.

fix#4990 (v3)
## Description
Expose
[useTableColumns](b160686fff/packages/ui/src/elements/TableColumns/index.tsx (L25))
hook from client exported members of the ui packages.
The use of this hook, covered the case of custom ListView creation which
was not possible due to the lack of possibility to select a file if we
were in the "list-draw" view.
With `useTableColumns` we can execute the `onClick` defined in
`TableColumnsProvider` witch allows the selection on the clicked file.
b160686fff/packages/ui/src/elements/ListDrawer/DrawerContent.tsx (L290-L296)
## Use case
CustomListView.tsx:
```ts
const CustomListView = () => {
// ...
const tableColumns = useTableColumns()
const handleItemClicked = (doc) => {
const onClick = tableColumns.columns[0].cellProps?.onClick
if (typeof onClick === 'function') {
// we are in "list-drawer" view, execute the onClick function
onClick({
cellData: undefined,
collectionSlug: doc,
rowData: doc,
})
} else {
// we are in "collection-admin" view, push the new route with next/navigation
void router.push(`${collectionSlug}/${doc.id}`)
}
}
return <div className={"list"}>
{data.docs?.length > 0 && (
<RelationshipProvider>
{docs.map((e, i) => (
<div className={"item"} key={i} onClick={() => handleItemClicked(e)}>
// ...
</div>
))}
</RelationshipProvider>
)}
</div>
}
```
This video shows the click of a file inside a CustomListView, in the
case of an "admin-collection" view then a "list-drawer" view.

## Description
Prior to this change, the `defaultValue` for fields have only been used
in the application layer of Payload. With this change, you get the added
benefit of having the database columns get the default also. This is
especially helpful when adding new columns to postgres with existing
data to avoid needing to write complex migrations. In MongoDB this
change applies the default to the Mongoose model which is useful when
calling payload.db.create() directly.
This only works for statically defined values.
🙏 A big thanks to @r1tsuu for the feature and implementation idea as I
lifted some code from PR https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/6983

Fixes the types for validate functions so that internal validation
functions can be re-used
Currently this has a type error
```ts
validate: (value, args) => {
return text(value, args)
},
```
Fixes#7402
This fixes a regression from changes to the postgres migration template
that were incorrect. It also fixes other type errors for
`payload.db.drizzle` which needed to be declared for postgres to avoid
confusing it with Libsql for SQLite.
## Description
Currently, there is no way to read field props from within a custom
field component, i.e. `admin.components.Description`. For example, if
you set `maxLength: 100` on your field, your custom description
component cannot read it from `props.maxLength` or any other methods.
Because these components are rendered on the server, there is also no
way of using `admin.component.Field` to inject custom props yourself,
either. To support this, we can simply pass the base component props
into these components on the server, as expected. This has also led to
custom field component props becoming more strictly typed within the
config.
This change is considered breaking only because the types have changed.
This only affects you if you were previously importing the following
types into your own custom components. To migrate, simply change the
import paths for that type.
Old:
```ts
import type {
ArrayFieldProps,
ReducedBlock,
BlocksFieldProps,
CheckboxFieldProps,
CodeFieldProps,
CollapsibleFieldProps,
DateFieldProps,
EmailFieldProps,
GroupFieldProps,
HiddenFieldProps,
JSONFieldProps,
NumberFieldProps,
PointFieldProps,
RadioFieldProps,
RelationshipFieldProps,
RichTextComponentProps,
RowFieldProps,
SelectFieldProps,
TabsFieldProps,
TextFieldProps,
TextareaFieldProps,
UploadFieldProps,
ErrorProps,
FormFieldBase,
FieldComponentProps,
FieldMap,
MappedField,
MappedTab,
ReducedBlock,
} from '@payloadcms/ui'
```
New:
```ts
import type {
FormFieldBase,
// etc.
} from 'payload'
```
Custom field components are now much more strongly typed. To make this
happen, an explicit type for every custom component has been generated
for every field type. The convention is to append
`DescriptionComponent`, `LabelComponent`, and `ErrorComponent` onto the
end of the field name, i.e. `TextFieldDescriptionComponent`. Here's an
example:
```ts
import type { TextFieldDescriptionComponent } from 'payload'
import React from 'react'
export const CustomDescription: TextFieldDescriptionComponent = (props) => {
return (
<div id="custom-field-description">{`The max length of this field is: ${props?.maxLength}`}</div>
)
}
```
Here's the full list of all new types:
Label Components:
```ts
import type {
ArrayFieldLabelComponent,
BlocksFieldLabelComponent,
CheckboxFieldLabelComponent,
CodeFieldLabelComponent,
CollapsibleFieldLabelComponent,
DateFieldLabelComponent,
EmailFieldLabelComponent,
GroupFieldLabelComponent,
HiddenFieldLabelComponent,
JSONFieldLabelComponent,
NumberFieldLabelComponent,
PointFieldLabelComponent,
RadioFieldLabelComponent,
RelationshipFieldLabelComponent,
RichTextFieldLabelComponent,
RowFieldLabelComponent,
SelectFieldLabelComponent,
TabsFieldLabelComponent,
TextFieldLabelComponent,
TextareaFieldLabelComponent,
UploadFieldLabelComponent
} from 'payload'
```
Error Components:
```tsx
import type {
ArrayFieldErrorComponent,
BlocksFieldErrorComponent,
CheckboxFieldErrorComponent,
CodeFieldErrorComponent,
CollapsibleFieldErrorComponent,
DateFieldErrorComponent,
EmailFieldErrorComponent,
GroupFieldErrorComponent,
HiddenFieldErrorComponent,
JSONFieldErrorComponent,
NumberFieldErrorComponent,
PointFieldErrorComponent,
RadioFieldErrorComponent,
RelationshipFieldErrorComponent,
RichTextFieldErrorComponent,
RowFieldErrorComponent,
SelectFieldErrorComponent,
TabsFieldErrorComponent,
TextFieldErrorComponent,
TextareaFieldErrorComponent,
UploadFieldErrorComponent
} from 'payload'
```
Description Components:
```tsx
import type {
ArrayFieldDescriptionComponent,
BlocksFieldDescriptionComponent,
CheckboxFieldDescriptionComponent,
CodeFieldDescriptionComponent,
CollapsibleFieldDescriptionComponent,
DateFieldDescriptionComponent,
EmailFieldDescriptionComponent,
GroupFieldDescriptionComponent,
HiddenFieldDescriptionComponent,
JSONFieldDescriptionComponent,
NumberFieldDescriptionComponent,
PointFieldDescriptionComponent,
RadioFieldDescriptionComponent,
RelationshipFieldDescriptionComponent,
RichTextFieldDescriptionComponent,
RowFieldDescriptionComponent,
SelectFieldDescriptionComponent,
TabsFieldDescriptionComponent,
TextFieldDescriptionComponent,
TextareaFieldDescriptionComponent,
UploadFieldDescriptionComponent
} from 'payload'
```
This PR also:
- Standardizes the `FieldBase['label']` type with a new `LabelStatic`
type. This makes type usage much more consistent across components.
- Simplifies some of the typings in the field component map, removes
unneeded `<Omit>`, etc.
- Fixes misc. linting issues around voiding promises

Adjust logic for determining package manager. Needed to move command
exists logic to be evaluated only after other possibilities were
exhausted.
Closes#7290
Doesn't look like those hacky esm-cjs imports are needed anymore.
These major pino releases only drop Node.js version support for versions
which payload doesn't support anyways.
We do not really need runtime joi schema validation - this is what TypeScript is for. If people are ignoring TypeScript errors in your schema, or JavaScript errors, that is their fault and does not warrant an extra dependency (joi), lots of code to maintain, as well as slower startups.
If we wanna keep runtime schema validation, we should switch to zod so that we can generate TypeScript types based on the schema and do not have to manually maintain config properties in 2 different places (types & schema).
**joi PROs:**
- Safety for JavaScript-only evangelists messing up their schema
- Safety for people putting @ts-expect-error or `as any` everywhere in their code
**joi CONs:**
- Larger bundle size
- More Modules
- Slower Compilation Speed in dev. Worse DX
- Slower Startup (it needs to validate) in dev. Worse DX
- More code to maintain. For every schema change we'll have to change the types AND the joi schema
- TypeScript already throws proper errors if you mess up your schema. Why have runtime errors?
- The errors are bad. They might tell you what field has an issue, but they do not tell you what exactly is wrong. You have probably seen those "Field XY, value is incorrect" errors - and value could mean anything. Worse DX
- Having extra properties in your schema, even if they are useless, doesn't cause any harm
Cons outweigh the pros
**BREAKING:**
- The `deepMerge` exported from payload now handles more complex data and
is slower. The old, simple deepMerge is now exported as `deepMergeSimple`
- `combineMerge` is no longer exported. You can use
`deepMergeWithCombinedArrays` instead
- The behavior of the exported `deepCopyObject` and `isPlainObject` may
be different and more reliable, as the underlying algorithm has changed
Fixes#7101Fixes#7006
Drawers were sending duplicate query params. This new approach modeled after the fix in V2, ensures that each drawer has its own action url created per document and the query params will be created when that is generated.
Also fixes the following:
- incorrect focal point cropping
- generated filenames for animated image names used incorrect heights
Opts to use links instead of router.replace when switching locales. The
main benefit is now the user will be warned if they have changes and
want to switch locales. Before it would switch locales and they would
lose any unsaved changes in the locale they came from.
`auth.loginWithUsername`:
```ts
auth: {
loginWithUsername: {
allowEmailLogin: true, // default: false
requireEmail: false, // default: false
}
}
```
#### `allowEmailLogin`
This property will allow you to determine if users should be able to
login with either email or username. If set to `false`, the default
value, then users will only be able to login with usernames when using
the `loginWithUsername` property.
#### `requireEmail`
Require that users also provide emails when using usernames.
Makes it so generated types now includes a `db` object with `idType` set
to `string` or `number` depending on the database
```ts
db: {
defaultIDType: number;
};
```
The conf dependency being bundled (not even executed) causes frequent
HMR runs (around 10+) to throw multiple MaxListenersExceeded warnings in
the console.
This PR
- fixes telemetry which was previously broken (threw an error which we
ignored) due to a conf version upgrade
- Removes the conf dependency (which is large and comes with a lot of
unneeded dependencies from functionality we don't need, like dot
notation or ajv validation). The important parts of the source code were
copied over - it's now dependency-free
- makes sure we only register the Next.js HMR websocket listener once,
by adding it to the cache

After this PR:

Canary: 3.0.0-canary.ca3dd1c
- use react 19 types
- no need for dotenv - next has their own dotenv file loader
- disable deprecation warnings by default (newer node version spam you
with it)
- disable turbo by default as hmr is broken and we cannot test against
it yet
- remove ts-node mention in tsconfig as it's not used anymore
- remove unused packages

Something like this:
```ts
{
name: 'select',
type: 'select',
dbName: ({ tableName }) => `${tableName}_customSelect`,
enumName: 'selectEnum',
hasMany: true,
options: ['a', 'b', 'c'],
},
```
caused the "Functions cannot be passed directly to Client Components"
error, as the dbName function was sent to the client.
Now, you can run `pnpm dev database` again without it erroring
We are suspecting that operations within those esbuild scripts are not
awaited properly - potentially causing issues in the publish script,

Fixes#6789
The skipVerify field in NodemailerAdapterArgs worked in reverse of what
it was supposed to do:
- With skipVerify = true -> Verified transport
- With skipVerify = false -> Did not verify transport
This PR makes the property work in the intended way:
- With skipVerify = true -> DO NOT verify transport
- With skipVerify = false -> DO verify transport
We now validate the names of the field against an array of protected
field names.
Also added JSDoc since we can't enforce type strictness yet if `string |
const[]` as it always evaluates to `string`.
```
The name of the field. Must be alphanumeric and cannot contain ' . '
Must not be one of protected field names: ['__v', 'salt', 'hash', 'file']

- Upgrades eslint from v8 to v9
- Upgrades all other eslint packages. We will have to do a new
full-project lint, as new rules have been added
- Upgrades husky from v8 to v9
- Upgrades lint-staged from v14 to v15
- Moves the old .eslintrc.cjs file format to the new eslint.config.js
flat file format.
Previously, we were very specific regarding which rules are applied to
which files. Now that `extends` is no longer a thing, I have to use
deepMerge & imports instead.
This is rather uncommon and is not a documented pattern - e.g.
typescript-eslint docs want us to add the default typescript-eslint
rules to the top-level & then disable it in files using the
disable-typechecked config.
However, I hate this opt-out approach. The way I did it here adds a lot
of clarity as to which rules are applied to which files, and is pretty
easy to read. Much less black magic
## .eslintignore
These files are no longer supported (see
https://eslint.org/docs/latest/use/configure/migration-guide#ignoring-files).
I moved the entries to the ignores property in the eslint config. => one
less file in each package folder!
## Description
Exports `getSiblingData`, `getDataByPath`, `reduceFieldsToValues`, and
`unflatten` from `payload`. These utilities were previously accessible
using direct import paths from `@payloadcms/ui`—but this is no longer
advised since moving to a pre-bundled UI library pattern. Instead of
simply exporting these from the `@payloadcms/ui` package, these exports
have been moved to Payload itself to provision for use outside of React
environments.
This is considered a breaking change. If you were previously importing
any of these utilities, the imports paths have changed as follows:
Old:
```ts
import { getSiblingData, getDataByPath, reduceFieldsToValues } from '@payloadcms/ui/forms/Form'
import { unflatten } from '@payloadcms/ui/utilities'
```
New:
```ts
import { getSiblingData, getDataByPath, reduceFieldsToValues, unflatten } from 'payload/shared'
```
The `is-buffer` dependency was also removed in this PR.

## Description
BREAKING CHANGE: Color values have changed and will have different
contrasts. If you use any of Payload's colors in your apps, you may need
to adjust your use of them to maintain proper styling/accessibility.
Colors palettes changed:
- `--theme-success-*`
- `--theme-error-*`
- `--theme-warning-*`
- `--color-success-*`
- `--color-error-*`
- `--color-warning-*`
- `--color-blue-*`
Updates the color palette used throughout Payload to be more consistent
between dark and light values. Contrast values are now more in line with
the `theme-elevation` contrasts. Some adjustments to the Toast
components as well to match light/dark mode better.

**BREAKING:** The minimum required Next.js version has been bumped from
`15.0.0-rc.0` to `15.0.0-canary.53`. This is because the way client
components are represented changed somewhere between those versions, and
it is not feasible to support both versions in our RSC detection logic.

functions like this
```ts
// before
const generateTitle: GenerateTitle = async <Page>({ doc, locale }) => {
return `Website.com — ${doc?.title?.value}`
}
// curent
import type { GenerateDescription, GenerateTitle, GenerateURL } from '@payloadcms/plugin-seo/types'

}
const generateDescription: GenerateDescription<Page> = async ({ doc, locale }) => {
return doc?.excerpt || 'generated description'
}
const generateURL: GenerateURL<Page> = async ({ doc, locale }) => {
return `https://yoursite.com/${locale ? locale + '/' : ''}${doc?.slug || ''}`
}
```
Breaking change because it was previously a FormState value.
## Description
Some authentication strategies may need to set headers for responses,
such as updating cookies via a refresh token, and similar. This PR
extends Payload's auth strategy capabilities with a manner of
accomplishing this.
This is a breaking change if you have custom authentication strategies
in Payload's 3.0 beta. But it's a simple one to update.
Instead of your custom auth strategy returning the `user`, now you must
return an object with a `user` property.
This is because you can now also optionally return `responseHeaders`,
which will be returned by Payload API responses if you define them in
your auth strategies. This can be helpful for cases where you need to
set cookies and similar, directly within your auth strategies.
Before:
```ts
return user
```
After:
```ts
return { user }
```
## Description
<!-- Please include a summary of the pull request and any related issues
it fixes. Please also include relevant motivation and context. -->
The v3 documentation mislead people by using PassportJS even though it's
not in v3 and custom strategies should be used instead with the correct
link.

## Description
Properties within the Custom Collection Components config were not
properly cased. In the Payload Config, there are places where we expose
_an array_ of Custom Components to render. These properties should be
cased in `camelCase` to indicate that its type is _**not**_ a component,
but rather, it's an _**array**_ of components. This is how all other
arrays are already cased throughout the config, therefore these
components break exiting convention. The `CapitalCase` convention is
reserved for _components themselves_, however, fixing this introduces a
breaking change. Here's how to migrate:
Old:
```ts
{
// ...
admin: {
components: {
AfterList: [],
AfterListTable: [],
BeforeList: [],
BeforeListTable: [],
}
}
}
```
New:
```ts
{
// ...
admin: {
components: {
afterList: [],
afterListTable: [],
beforeList: [],
beforeListTable: [],
}
}
}
```
The docs were also out of date for the Root-level Custom Components.
These components are documented in CaptalCase but are in fact cased
correctly in Payload. This PR fixes that.

Adds the ability to set response headers by using a new
`uploads.modifyResponseHeaders` property. You could previously do this
in Express in Payload v2.
You can do this like so:
```ts
upload: {
modifyResponseHeaders: ({ headers }) => {
headers.set('Cache-Control', 'public, max-age=86400')
return headers
}
},
```
**BREAKING:**
- Type narrowing for `relationTo` props on filterOptions, relationship
fields and upload fields
- Type narrowing for arguments of lexical relationship, link and upload
features
## Description
Standardizes all named field exports. This improves semantics when using
these components by appending `Field` onto the end of their names. Some
components were already doing this, i.e. `ArrayField` and `BlocksField`.
Now, all field components share this same convention. And since bundled
components were already aliasing most exports in this way, this change
will largely go unnoticed because most apps were _already_ importing the
correctly named components. What is ultimately means is that there was a
mismatch between the unbundled vs bundled exports. This PR resolves that
conflict. But this also introduces a potentially breaking change for
your app. If your app is using components that import from the
_unbundled_ `@payloadcms/ui` package, those import paths likely changed:
Old:
```tsx
import { Text } from '@payloadcms/ui/fields/Text'
```
New:
```tsx
import { TextField } from '@payloadcms/ui/fields/Text'
```
If you were importing direcetly from the _bundled_ version, you're
imports likely have not changed. For example:
This still works (the import path is top-level, pointing to the
_bundled_ code):
```tsx
import { TextField } from '@payloadcms/ui'
```

**BREAKING:** a bunch of exports have been moved around. There are now
two of them: `@payloadcms/richtext-lexical` and
`@payloadcms/richtext-lexical/client`. The root export is server-only.
If any imports don't resolve anymore after this version, simply change
the import to one of those, depending on if you are on the server or the
client
**BREAKING:**
- ServerFeature: `ClientComponent` has been renamed to `ClientFeature`
- ServerFeature: The nested `serverFeatureProps` has been renamed to
`sanitizedServerFeatureProps`
- ServerFeature: The FeatureProviderProviderServer type now expects 3
generics instead of 2. We have split the props generic into sanitized &
unsanitized props
- ClientFeature: The FeatureProviderProviderClient type now expects 2
generics instead of 1. We have split the props generic into sanitized &
unsanitized props
- ClientFeature: The nested `clientFeatureProps` has been renamed to
`sanitizedClientFeatureProps`
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/6869
Before, options from props were being stored in state and would not
update when props changed. Now options are memoized and will update when
the incoming `options` prop changes.
Allows `upload.handlers` to mutate the request. This can be useful when
you want to adjust headers on the request but do not want to return a
new response.
**BREAKING:** All `@payloadcms/ui/client` exports have been renamed to
`@payloadcms/ui`. A simple find & replace across your entire project
will be enough to migrate. This change greatly improves import
auto-completions in IDEs which lack proper support for package.json
exports, like Webstorm.
Copy of https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/6842 for beta
Allows empty strings ('') as defaultValue for fields of types: 'text'; 'textarea'; 'email'; 'code'. This can be useful when you want to ensure the value is always a string instead of null/undefined.

# Breaking Changes
### New file import locations
Exports from the `payload` package have been _significantly_ cleaned up.
Now, just about everything is able to be imported from `payload`
directly, rather than an assortment of subpath exports. This means that
things like `import { buildConfig } from 'payload/config'` are now just
imported via `import { buildConfig } from 'payload'`. The mental model
is significantly simpler for developers, but you might need to update
some of your imports.
Payload now exposes only three exports:
1. `payload` - all types and server-only Payload code
2. `payload/shared` - utilities that can be used in either the browser
or in Node environments
3. `payload/node` - heavy utilities that should only be imported in Node
scripts and never be imported into bundled code like Next.js
### UI library pre-bundling
With this release, we've dramatically sped up the compile time for
Payload by pre-bundling our entire UI package for use inside of the
Payload admin itself. There are new exports that should be used within
Payload custom components:
1. `@payloadcms/ui/client` - all client components
2. `@payloadcms/ui/server` - all server components
For all of your custom Payload admin UI components, you should be
importing from one of these two pre-compiled barrel files rather than
importing from the more deeply nested exports directly. That will keep
compile times nice and speedy, and will also make sure that the bundled
JS for your admin UI is kept small.
For example, whereas before, if you imported the Payload `Button`, you
would have imported it like this:
```ts
import { Button } from '@payloadcms/ui/elements/Button'
```
Now, you would import it like this:
```ts
import { Button } from '@payloadcms/ui/client'
```
This is a significant DX / performance optimization that we're pretty
pumped about.
However, if you are importing or re-using Payload UI components
_outside_ of the Payload admin UI, for example in your own frontend
apps, you can import from the individual component exports which will
make sure that the bundled JS is kept to a minimum in your frontend
apps. So in your own frontend, you can continue to import directly to
the components that you want to consume rather than importing from the
pre-compiled barrel files.
Individual component exports will now come with their corresponding CSS
and everything will work perfectly as-expected.
### Specific exports have changed
- `'@payloadcms/ui/templates/Default'` and
`'@payloadcms/ui/templates/Minimal`' are now exported from
`'@payloadcms/next/templates'`
- Old: `import { LogOut } from '@payloadcms/ui/icons/LogOut'` new:
`import { LogOutIcon } from '@payloadcms/ui/icons/LogOut'`
## Background info
In effort to make local dev as fast as possible, we need to import as
few files as possible so that the compiler has less to process. One way
we've achieved this in the Admin Panel was to _remove_ all .scss imports
from all components in the `@payloadcms/ui` module using a build
process. This stripped all `import './index.scss'` statements out of
each component before injecting them into `dist`. Instead, it bundles
all of the CSS into a single `main.css` file, and we import _that_ at
the root of the app.
While this concept is _still_ the right solution to the problem, this
particular approach is not viable when using these components outside
the Admin Panel, where not only does this root stylesheet not exist, but
where it would also bloat your app with unused styles. Instead, we need
to _keep_ these .scss imports in place so they are imported directly
alongside your components, as expected. Then, we need create a _new_
build step that _separately_ compiles the components _without_ their
stylesheets—this way your app can consume either as needed from the new
`client` and `server` barrel files within `@payloadcms/ui`, i.e. from
within `@payloadcms/next` and all other admin-specific packages and
plugins.
This way, all other applications will simply import using the direct
file paths, just as they did before. Except now they come with
stylesheets.
And we've gotten a pretty awesome initial compilation performance boost.

## BREAKING
- Our internal field hook methods now have new required `schemaPath` and
path `props`. This affects the following functions, if you are using
those: `afterChangeTraverseFields`, `afterReadTraverseFields`,
`beforeChangeTraverseFields`, `beforeValidateTraverseFields`,
`afterReadPromise`
- The afterChange field hook's `value` is now the value AFTER the
previous hooks were run. Previously, this was the original value, which
I believe is a bug
- Only relevant if you have built your own richText adapter: the
richText adapter `populationPromises` property has been renamed to
`graphQLPopulationPromises` and is now only run for graphQL. Previously,
it was run for graphQL AND the rest API. To migrate, use
`hooks.afterRead` to run population for the rest API
- Only relevant if you have built your own lexical features: The
`populationPromises` server feature property has been renamed to
`graphQLPopulationPromises` and is now only run for graphQL. Previously,
it was run for graphQL AND the rest API. To migrate, use
`hooks.afterRead` to run population for the rest API
- Serialized lexical link and upload nodes now have a new `id` property.
While not breaking, localization / hooks will not work for their fields
until you have migrated to that. Re-saving the old document on the new
version will automatically add the `id` property for you. You will also
get a bunch of console logs for every lexical node which is not migrated
**BREAKING:** We now export toast from `sonner` instead of
`react-toastify`. If you send out toasts from your own projects, make
sure to use our `toast` export, or install `sonner`. React-toastify
toasts will no longer work anymore. The Toast APIs are mostly similar,
but there are some differences if you provide options to your toast
CSS styles have been changed from Toastify
```css
/* before */
.Toastify
/* current */
.payload-toast-container
.payload-toast-item
.payload-toast-close-button
/* individual toast items will also have these classes depending on the state */
.toast-info
.toast-warning
.toast-success
.toast-error
```

## Description
### Issue:
Non-animated webp / gif files were using `metadata.pages` to calculate
it's resized heights for `imageSizes` or `cropping`.
### Fix:
It should only use this to calculate it's height if the file's
`metadata` contains `metadata.pages`. Non-animated webps and gifs would
not have this.

Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/6637
There was an issue where tab paths were being generated based on 2
scenarios when there are 3 possible scenarios:
- A path is provided and the tab is named
- A path is **not** provided but the tab is named
- Neither a path or a tab name are provided
Types are now auto-generated by default.
You can opt-out of this behavior by setting:
```ts
buildConfig({
// Rest of config
typescript: {
autoGenerate: false
},
})
```

functionality to not work as expected)
**BREAKING**:
- This bumps the minimum required node version from node 20.6.0 to node
20.9.0. This is because 20.6.0 breaks type generation due to a CJS node
bug, and 20.9.0 is the next v20 LTS version. The minimum node 18 version
stays the same (18.20.2)
## Description
fixes#6630
# BREAKING CHANGES
This only applies to you if you using db-postgres and have created the
`v2-v3-relationships` migration released in
[v3.0.0-beta.39](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/releases/tag/v3.0.0-beta.39)
from @payloadcms/db-postgres <= v3.0.0-beta.40.
### Steps to fix
- Delete the existing v2-v3-relationships migration file.
- If changes were made to your config since the previous migration was
made, you will need to revert those by checking out a previous commit in
your version control.
- Recreate the migration using `payload migrate:create --file
@payloadcms/db-postgres/relationships-v2-v3` to make the migration with
the snapshot .json file.
**BREAKING:**
- This upgrades the required version of lexical from 0.15.0 to 0.16.0.
If you are using lexical directly in your project, possibly due to
custom features, there might be breaking changes for you. Please consult
the lexical 0.16.0 changelog:
https://github.com/facebook/lexical/releases/tag/v0.16.0
**BREAKING**: useEditorFocusProvider has been removed and merged with
useEditorConfigContext. You can now find information about the focused
editor, parent editors and child editors within useEditorConfigContext
BREAKING CHANGE:
Moves `upload` field and `relationship` fields with `hasMany: false` &
`relationTo: string` from the many-to-many `_rels` join table to simple
columns. This only affects Postgres database users.
## TL;DR
We have dramatically simplified the storage of simple relationships in
relational databases to boost performance and align with more expected
relational paradigms. If you are using the beta Postgres adapter, and
you need to keep simple relationship data, you'll need to run a
migration script that we provide you.
### Background
For example, prior to this update, a collection of "posts" with a simple
`hasMany: false` and `relationTo: 'categories'` field would have a
`posts_rels` table where the category relations would be stored.
This was somewhat unnecessary as simple relations like this can be
expressed with a `category_id` column which is configured as a foreign
key. This also introduced added complexity for dealing directly with the
database if all you have are simple relations.
### Who needs to migrate
You need to migrate if you are using the beta Postgres database adapter
and any of the following applies to you.
- If you have versions enabled on any collection / global
- If you use the `upload` field
- If you have relationship fields that are `hasMany: false` (default)
and `relationTo` to a single category ([has
one](https://payloadcms.com/docs/fields/relationship#has-one)) relations
### We have a migration for you
Even though the Postgres adapter is in beta, we've prepared a predefined
migration that will work out of the box for you to migrate from an
earlier version of the adapter to the most recent version easily.
It makes the schema changes in step with actually moving the data from
the old locations to the new before adding any null constraints and
dropping the old columns and tables.
### How to migrate
The steps to preserve your data while making this update are as follows.
These steps are the same whether you are moving from Payload v2 to v3 or
a previous version of v3 beta to the most recent v3 beta.
**Important: during these steps, don't start the dev server unless you
have `push: false` set on your Postgres adapter.**
#### Step 1 - backup
Always back up your database before performing big changes, especially
in production cases.
#### Step 2 - create a pre-update migration
Before updating to new Payload and Postgres adapter versions, run
`payload migrate:create` without any other config changes to have a
prior snapshot of the schema from the previous adapter version
#### Step 3 - if you're migrating a dev DB, delete the dev `push` row
from your `payload_migrations` table
If you're migrating a dev database where you have the default setting to
push database changes directly to your DB, and you need to preserve data
in your development database, then you need to delete a `dev` migration
record from your database.
Connect directly to your database in any tool you'd like and delete the
dev push record from the `payload_migrations` table using the following
SQL statement:
```sql
DELETE FROM payload_migrations where batch = -1`
```
#### Step 4 - update Payload and Postgres versions to most recent
Update packages, making sure you have matching versions across all
`@payloadcms/*` and `payload` packages (including
`@payloadcms/db-postgres`)
#### Step 5 - create the predefined migration
Run the following command to create the predefined migration we've
provided:
```
payload migrate:create --file @payloadcms/db-postgres/relationships-v2-v3
```
#### Step 6 - migrate!
Run migrations with the following command:
```
payload migrate
```
Assuming the migration worked, you can proceed to commit this change and
distribute it to be run on all other environments.
Note that if two servers connect to the same database, only one should
be running migrations to avoid transaction conflicts.

Closes#6455. Proper localization support will be worked on later, this
just resolves the issue where having it enabled not only doesn't
localize those fields, it also omits them from the API response. Now,
they are not omitted, and localization is simply skipped.
**BREAKING:**
- bumps minimum required next.js version from `14.3.0-canary.68` to
`15.0.0-rc.0`
- bumps minimum required react and react-dom versions to `19.0.0
`(`19.0.0-rc-f994737d14-20240522` should be used)
- `@types/react` and `@types/react-dom` have to be bumped to
`npm:types-react@19.0.0-beta.2` using overrides and pnpm overrides, if
you want correct types. You can find an example of this here:
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/6429/files#diff-10cb9e57a77733f174ee2888587281e94c31f79e434aa3f932a8ec72fa7a5121L32
## Issues
- Bunch of todos for our react-select package which is having type
issues. Works fine, just type issues. Their type defs are importing JSX
in a weird way, we likely just have to wait until they fix them in a
future update.
Fixes webpack issue with isHotkey: `TypeError:
is_hotkey__WEBPACK_IMPORTED_MODULE_9__ is not a function`
Changing this from a default import to a named export, and it appears to
resolve the issue.
Fixes#6421
## Description
Renames the `Save` to `SaveButton`, etc. to match the already
established convention of the `PreviewButton`, etc. This matches the
imports with their respective component and type names, and also gives
these components more context to the developer whenever they're
rendered, i.e. its clearly just a button and not an entire block or
complex component.
**BREAKING**:
Import paths for these components have changed, if you were previously
importing these components into your own projects to customize, change
the import paths accordingly:
Old:
```ts
import { PublishButton } from '@payloadcms/ui/elements/Publish'
import { SaveButton } from '@payloadcms/ui/elements/Save'
import { SaveDraftButton } from '@payloadcms/ui/elements/SaveDraft'
```
New:
```ts
import { PublishButton } from '@payloadcms/ui/elements/PublishButton'
import { SaveButton } from '@payloadcms/ui/elements/SaveButton'
import { SaveDraftButton } from '@payloadcms/ui/elements/SaveDraftButton'
```

Change the exports of DefaultListView and DefaultEditView to be renamed
without "Default" as ListView
```ts
// before
import { DefaultEditView } from '@payloadcms/next/views'
import { DefaultListView } from '@payloadcms/next/views'
// after
import { EditView } from '@payloadcms/next/views'
import { ListView } from '@payloadcms/next/views'
```
Added additional prompt to make sure the translation we receive is using
formal language where it makes sense.
In the context of latin languages for example:
- Spanish: "tu" should be using "vos"
- French: "tu" should be using "votre"
These differences can affect verb conjugations and in these languages it
comes across as less professional if informal language is used.
## Description
Closes
[#225](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload-3.0-demo/issues/225).
The user verification emails are not being sent and this error is shown:
```ts
APIError: Error sending email: 422 validation_error - Invalid `from` field. The email address needs to follow the `email@example.com` or `Name <email@example.com>` format.
```
The issue is resolved by updating the `from` property on the outgoing
verification email:
```ts
from: `"${email.defaultFromName}" <${email.defaultFromName}>`,
// to
from: `"${email.defaultFromName}" <${email. defaultFromAddress}>`,
```
**NOTE:** This was not broken in 2.0, see correct outgoing email

Fixes an issue with creating versions when using custom DB names,
`uuid`, and drafts.
---------
Co-authored-by: PatrikKozak <patrik@payloadcms.com>
When typing into the search input on the list view of a collection, the
`like` operator is used for id which causes an error for postgres. To
fix this we are sanitizing the `like` for number or uuid fields to
instead be an `equals` operator. An alternate solution would have been
to cast the ids to text `id::text` but this would have performence
implications on larger data sets.

## Description
* The apostrophe character `’` should be used instead of the single
quote `'`
* Gender corrections: "L’adresse e-mail fourni**e**", "Vérification
échoué**e**"
* Lowercase: "Supprimer le **té**léversement"
* Dark and light theme: I think it makes more sense to use "Sombre" and
"Clair" here to identify the theme. Day/Night modes imply a hue/warmth
correction and are different features altogether. Reference:
https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mode_sombre#Mode_sombre_et_mode_nuit_ou_chaud
* Fix accent: "Mis à jour avec succ**è**s"
* "Bienvenue" I think would be the correct standalone greeting form.
Reference:
https://www.projet-voltaire.fr/question-orthographe/orthographe-bienvenu-bienvenue-chez-moi/
* "Recadrer" is the correct word for "crop". "Récolte" means "crop" in
the sense of "harvest", so this was probably a bad literal Google
Translate that slipped through.
* Correct all "Es-tu sûr ?" to the proper formal "Êtes-vous sûr ?" for
consistency
* Use _article défini_ since we will enumerate the values: "Ce champ
contient **les** sélections invalides suivantes :"
* Space before question marks

**BREAKING:** This upgrades all lexical packages from 0.14.5 to 0.15.0.
If there are any breaking changes within lexical, this could break your
project if you use lexical APIs directly (e.g. in custom features). We
have not noticed any breaking changes within core. Please consult their
changelog: https://github.com/facebook/lexical/releases/tag/v0.15.0
## Description
Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload-3.0-demo/issues/215
imports like import LogoSVG from '@/components/logo.svg' did not make it
to the TS module resolution, due to the early isClient check.
And the isClient check only uses node module resolution (using
nextResolves) which throws an error here.
This removes module resolution completely, as we "ignore" client files
anyways. Should also help improve performance, and we do not have to
fall back to ts module resolution for client files that way, which would
be unnecessary

**Breaking:** The following, exported components now need the `payload` object as a prop rather than the `config` object:
- `RenderCustomComponent` (optional)
- `Logo`
- `DefaultTemplate`
- `DefaultNav`
Breaking Changes:
- Globals config: `admin.description` no longer accepts a custom component. You will have to move it to `admin.components.elements.Description`
- Collections config: `admin.description` no longer accepts a custom component. You will have to move it to `admin.components.edit.Description`
- All Fields: `field.admin.description` no longer accepts a custom component. You will have to move it to `field.admin.components.Description`
- Collapsible Field: `field.label` no longer accepts a custom component. You will have to move it to `field.admin.components.RowLabel`
- Array Field: `field.admin.components.RowLabel` no longer accepts strings or records
- If you are using our exported field components in your own app, their `labelProps` property has been stripped down and no longer contains the `label` and `required` prop. Those can now only be configured at the top-level
**BREAKING:**
- Narrows the type of the `plugins` prop of lexical features. Client props are now also automatically provided to the plugin components. To migrate, type your plugin as either `PluginComponent` or PluginComponentWithAnchor.
- `BlockQuoteFeature` has been renamed to `BlockquoteFeature`
- `createClientComponent` is now exported only from /components
- The `LexicalBlocks` and `FieldWithRichTextRequiredEditor` types have been removed in favor of just `Blocks` & `Fields`, as well as improved validation.
BREAKING:
- The default inline toolbar has now been extracted into an `InlineToolbarFeature`. While it's part of the defaultFeatures, you might have to add it to your editor features if you are not including the defaultFeatures and still want to keep the inline toolbar (floating toolbar)
- Some types have been renamed, e.g. `InlineToolbarGroup` is now `ToolbarGroup`, and `InlineToolbarGroupItem` is now `ToolbarGroupItem`
- The `displayName` property of SlashMenuGroup and SlashMenuItem has been renamed to `label` to match the `label` prop of the toolbars
- The `inlineToolbarFeatureButtonsGroupWithItem`, `inlineToolbarFormatGroupWithItems` and `inlineToolbarTextDropdownGroupWithItems` exports have been renamed to `toolbarTextDropdownGroupWithItems`, `toolbarFormatGroupWithItems`, `toolbarFeatureButtonsGroupWithItems`
BREAKING CHANGE: All plugins have been updated to use named exports and the names have been updated to be consistent.

**BREAKING:**
If you have own, custom lexical features, there will be a bunch of breaking API changes for you. The saved JSON data is not affected.
- `floatingSelectToolbar` has been changed to `toolbarInline`
- `slashMenu.dynamicOptions `and `slashMenu.options` have been changed to `slashMenu.groups` and `slashMenu.dynamicGroups`
- `toolbarFixed.sections` is now `toolbarFixed.groups`
- Slash menu group `options` and toolbar group `entries` have both been renamed to `items`
- Toolbar group item `onClick` has been renamed to `onSelect` to match slash menu properties
- slashMenu item `onSelect` is no longer auto-wrapped inside an `editor.update`. If you perform editor updates in them, you have to wrap it inside an `editor.update` callback yourself. Within our own features this extra control has removed a good amount of unnecessary, nested `editor.update` calls, which is good
- Slash menu items are no longer initialized using the `new` keyword, as they are now types and no longer classes. You can convert them to an object and add the `key` property as an object property instead of an argument to the previous SlashMenuItem constructor
- CSS classnames for slash menu and toolbars, as well as their items, have changed
- `CheckListFeature` is now exported as and has been renamed to `ChecklistFeature`
For guidance on migration, check out how we migrated our own features in this PR's diff: https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/6191/files
BREAKING: this will now display errors if you're previously had invalid link or upload fields data - for example if you have a required field added to an uploads node and did not provide a value to it every time you've added an upload node
BREAKING: this will now display errors if you're previously had invalid link or upload fields data - for example if you have a required field added to an uploads node and did not provide a value to it every time you've added an upload node
**BREAKING:**
- Drawer fields are no longer wrapped in a `fields` group. This might be breaking if you depend on them being in a field group in any way - potentially if you use custom link fields. This does not change how the data is saved
- If you pass in an array of custom fields to the link feature, those were previously added to the base fields. Now, they completely replace the base fields for consistency. If you want to ADD fields to the base fields now, you will have to pass in a function and spread `defaultFields` - similar to how adding your own features to lexical works
**Example Migration for ADDING fields to the link base fields:**
**Previous:**
```ts
LinkFeature({
fields: [
{
name: 'rel',
label: 'Rel Attribute',
type: 'select',
hasMany: true,
options: ['noopener', 'noreferrer', 'nofollow'],
admin: {
description:
'The rel attribute defines the relationship between a linked resource and the current document. This is a custom link field.',
},
},
],
}),
```
**Now:**
```ts
LinkFeature({
fields: ({ defaultFields }) => [
...defaultFields,
{
name: 'rel',
label: 'Rel Attribute',
type: 'select',
hasMany: true,
options: ['noopener', 'noreferrer', 'nofollow'],
admin: {
description:
'The rel attribute defines the relationship between a linked resource and the current document. This is a custom link field.',
},
},
],
}),
BREAKING:
- Lexical may introduce breaking changes in their updates. Please consult their changelog. One breaking change I noticed is that the SerializedParagraphNode now has a new, required textFormat property.
- Now that lexical supports ESM, all CJS-style imports have been changed to ESM-style imports. You may have to do the same in your codebase if you import from lexical core packages
BREAKING:
- Unpopulated lexical relationship, link and upload nodes now save the relationTo document ID under value instead of value.id. This matches the behavior of core relationship fields. This changes the shape of the saved JSON data
- Any custom features which add their own population promises need to be reworked. populationPromises no longer accepts the promises as a return value. Instead, it expects you to mutate the promises array which is passed through, which mimics the way it works in core

It will scan commits between that and the prior release, find associated Issues and PRs, and comment on them to let people know a release has been made. Associated Issues and PRs can be directly [linked](https://docs.github.com/en/free-pro-team@latest/github/managing-your-work-on-github/linking-a-pull-request-to-an-issue) to the commit or manually linked from a PR associated with the commit.
## Inputs
**GITHUB_TOKEN**
A GitHub personal access token with repo scope, such as [`secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN`](https://docs.github.com/en/free-pro-team@latest/actions/reference/authentication-in-a-workflow#about-the-github_token-secret).
**comment-template** (optional)
Override the comment posted on Issues and PRs. Set to the empty string to disable commenting. Several variables strings will be automatically replaced:
-`{release_link}` - a markdown link to the release
-`{release_name}` - the release's name
-`{release_tag}` - the release's tag
**label-template** (optional)
Add the given label. Multiple labels can be separated by commas. Several variable strings will be automatically replaced:
-`{release_name}` - the release's name
-`{release_tag}` - the release's tag
**skip-label** (optional)
Skip processing if any of the given labels are present. Same processing rules as **label-template**. Default is "dependencies".
## Example
```yml
on:
release:
types:[published]
jobs:
release:
steps:
- uses:apexskier/github-release-commenter@v1
with:
GITHUB_TOKEN:${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
comment-template:|
Release {release_link} addresses this.
```
## Known limitations
These are some known limitations of this action. I'd like to try to address them in the future.
- Non-linear releases aren't supported. For example, releasing a patch to a prior major release after a new major release has been bumped.
- Non-sequential releases aren't supported. For example, if you release multiple prereleases between two official releases, this will only create a comment for the first prerelease in which a fix is released, not the final release.
- The first release for a project will be ignored. This is intentional, as the use case is unlikely. Most projects will either have several alphas that don't need release comments, or won't use issues/PRs for the first commit.
- If a large number of things are commented on, you may see the error `Error: You have triggered an abuse detection mechanism. Please wait a few minutes before you try again.`. Consider using the `skip-label` input to reduce your load on the GitHub API.
## Versions
Workflows will automatically update the tags `v1` and `latest`, allowing you to reference one of those instead of locking to a specific release.

**Please add a reproduction in order for us to be able to investigate.**
Depending on the quality of reproduction steps, this issue may be closed if no reproduction is provided.
### Why was this issue marked with the `invalid-reproduction` label?
To be able to investigate, we need access to a reproduction to identify what triggered the issue. We prefer a link to a public GitHub repository created with `create-payload-app@beta -t blank` or a forked/branched version of this repository with tests added (more info in the [reproduction-guide](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/blob/main/.github/reproduction-guide.md)).
To make sure the issue is resolved as quickly as possible, please make sure that the reproduction is as **minimal** as possible. This means that you should **remove unnecessary code, files, and dependencies** that do not contribute to the issue. Ensure your reproduction does not depend on secrets, 3rd party registries, private dependencies, or any other data that cannot be made public. Avoid a reproduction including a whole monorepo (unless relevant to the issue). The easier it is to reproduce the issue, the quicker we can help.
Please test your reproduction against the latest version of Payload to make sure your issue has not already been fixed.
### I added a link, why was it still marked?
Ensure the link is pointing to a codebase that is accessible (e.g. not a private repository). "[example.com](http://example.com/)", "n/a", "will add later", etc. are not acceptable links -- we need to see a public codebase. See the above section for accepted links.

## Internationalization (i18n)
If your PR adds a string to the UI, we need to make sure to translate it into all the languages that Payload supports. To do that:
- Find the appropriate internationalization file for your package. These are typically located in `packages/translations/src/languages`, although some packages (e.g., richtext-lexical) have separate i18n files for each feature.
- Add the string to the English locale "en".
- Translate it to other languages. You can use the `translateNewKeys` script if you have an OpenAI API key in your `.env` (under `OPENAI_KEY`), or you can use ChatGPT or Google translate - whatever is easier for you. For payload core translations (in packages/translations) you can run the `translateNewKeys` script using `cd packages/translations && pnpm translateNewKeys`. For lexical translations, you can run it using `cd packages/richtext-lexical && pnpm translateNewKeys`. External contributors can skip this step and leave it to us.

The [Examples Directory](./examples) is a great resource for learning how to setup Payload in a variety of different ways, but you can also find great examples in our blog and throughout our social media.
If you'd like to run the examples, you can either copy them to a folder outside this repo or run them directly by (1) navigating to the example's subfolder (`cd examples/your-example-folder`) and (2) using the `--ignore-workspace` flag to bypass workspace restrictions (e.g., `pnpm --ignore-workspace install` or `pnpm --ignore-workspace dev`).
desc: Payload makes it simple to define and manage access control. By declaring roles, you can set permissions and restrict what your users can interact with.
Access control within Payload is extremely powerful while remaining easy and intuitive to manage. Declaring who should have access to what documents is no more complex than writing a simple JavaScript function that either returns a `boolean` or a [`query`](/docs/queries/overview) constraint to restrict which documents users can interact with.
<YouTube id="DoPLyXG26Dg" title="Overview of Payload Access Control" />
**Example use cases:**
- Allowing anyone `read` access to all `Post`s
- Only allowing public access to `Post`s where a `status` field is equal to `published`
- Giving only `User`s with a `role` field equal to `admin` the ability to delete `Page`(s)
- Allowing anyone to create `ContactSubmission`s, but only logged in users to `read`, `update` or `delete` them
- Restricting a `User` to only be able to see their own `Order`(s), but no others
- Allowing `User`s that belong to a certain `Organization` to access only that `Organization`'s `Resource`s
### Default Settings
**By default, all Collections and Globals require that a user is logged in to be able to interact in any way.** The default Access Control function evaluates the `user` from the Express `req` and returns `true` if a user is logged in, and `false` if not.
In the Local API, all Access Control functions are skipped by default, allowing your server to do
whatever it needs. But, you can opt back in by setting the option <strong>
overrideAccess
</strong>{' '}
to <strong>false</strong>.
</Banner>
### Access Control Types
You can manage access within Payload on three different levels:
- [Collections](/docs/access-control/collections)
- [Fields](/docs/access-control/fields)
- [Globals](/docs/access-control/globals)
### When Access Control is Executed
<Banner type="success">
<strong>Note:</strong>
<br />
Access control functions are utilized in two places. It's important to understand how and when
your access control is executed.
</Banner>
#### As you execute operations
When you perform Payload operations like `create`, `read`, `update`, and `delete`, your access control functions will be executed before any changes or operations are completed.
#### Within the Admin UI
The Payload Admin UI responds dynamically to the access control that you define. For example, if you restrict editing a `ExampleCollection` to only users that feature a `role` of `admin`, the Payload Admin UI will **hide** the `ExampleCollection` from the Admin UI entirely. This is super powerful and allows you to control who can do what with your Admin UI.
To accomplish this, Payload ships with an `Access` operation, which is executed when a user logs into the Admin UI. Payload will execute each one of your access control functions, across all collections, globals, and fields, at the top level and return a response that contains a reflection of what the currently authenticated user can do with your application.
### Argument Availability
<Banner type="warning">
<strong>Important:</strong>
<br />
When your access control functions are executed via the <strong>access</strong> operation, the{' '}
<strong>id</strong> and <strong>data</strong> arguments will be <strong>undefined</strong>,
because Payload is executing your functions without referencing a specific document.
</Banner>
If you use `id` or `data` within your access control functions, make sure to check that they are defined first. If they are not, then you can assume that your access control is being executed via the `access` operation, to determine solely what the user can do within the Admin UI.
desc: Fully customize your Admin Panel by swapping in your own React components. Add fields, remove views, update routes and change functions to sculpt your perfect Dashboard.
While designing the Payload Admin panel, we determined it should be as minimal and straightforward as possible to allow easy customization and control. There are many times where you may want to completely control how a whole view or a field works. You might even want to add in new views entirely. In order for Payload to support this level of customization without introducing versioning / future-proofing issues, Payload provides for a pattern to supply your own React components via your Payload config.
To swap in your own React component, first, consult the list of available component overrides below. Determine the scope that corresponds to what you are trying to accomplish, and then author your React component accordingly.
<Banner type="success">
<strong>Tip:</strong>
<br />
Custom components will automatically be provided with all props that the default component normally
accepts.
</Banner>
### Base Component Overrides
You can override a set of admin panel-wide components by providing a component to your base Payload config's `admin.components` property. The following options are available:
| **`Nav`** | Contains the sidebar / mobile menu in its entirety. |
| **`BeforeNavLinks`** | Array of components to inject into the built-in Nav, _before_ the links themselves. |
| **`AfterNavLinks`** | Array of components to inject into the built-in Nav, _after_ the links. |
| **`BeforeDashboard`** | Array of components to inject into the built-in Dashboard, _before_ the default dashboard contents. |
| **`AfterDashboard`** | Array of components to inject into the built-in Dashboard, _after_ the default dashboard contents. [Demo](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/tree/main/test/admin/components/AfterDashboard/index.tsx) |
| **`BeforeLogin`** | Array of components to inject into the built-in Login, _before_ the default login form. |
| **`AfterLogin`** | Array of components to inject into the built-in Login, _after_ the default login form. |
| **`logout.Button`** | A custom React component. |
| **`graphics.Icon`** | Used as a graphic within the `Nav` component. Often represents a condensed version of a full logo. |
| **`graphics.Logo`** | The full logo to be used in contexts like the `Login` view. |
| **`providers`** | Define your own provider components that will wrap the Payload Admin UI. [More](#custom-providers) |
| **`actions`** | Array of custom components to be rendered in the Payload Admin UI header, providing additional interactivity and functionality. |
| **`views`** | Override or create new views within the Payload Admin UI. [More](#views) |
Here is a full example showing how to swap some of these components for your own.
`payload.config.js`
```ts
import { buildConfig } from 'payload/config'
import {
MyCustomNav,
MyCustomLogo,
MyCustomIcon,
MyCustomAccount,
MyCustomDashboard,
MyProvider,
MyCustomAdminAction,
} from './customComponents'
export default buildConfig({
admin: {
components: {
Nav: MyCustomNav,
graphics: {
Icon: MyCustomIcon,
Logo: MyCustomLogo,
},
actions: [MyCustomAdminAction],
views: {
Account: MyCustomAccount,
Dashboard: MyCustomDashboard,
},
providers: [MyProvider],
},
},
})
```
#### Views
You can easily swap entire views with your own by using the `admin.components.views` property. At the root level, Payload renders the following views by default, all of which can be overridden:
| **`Account`** | The Account view is used to show the currently logged in user's Account page. |
| **`Dashboard`** | The main landing page of the Admin panel. |
To swap out any of these views, simply pass in your custom component to the `admin.components.views` property of your Payload config. For example:
```ts
// payload.config.ts
{
// ...
admin: {
components: {
views: {
Account: MyCustomAccountView,
Dashboard: MyCustomDashboardView,
},
},
},
}
```
For more granular control, pass a configuration object instead. Each view corresponds to its own `<Route />` component in [React Router v5](https://v5.reactrouter.com). Payload exposes all of the properties of React Router:
_\* An asterisk denotes that a property is required._
#### Adding new views
To add a _new_ view to the Admin Panel, simply add another key to the `views` object with at least a `path` and `Component` property. For example:
```ts
// payload.config.ts
{
// ...
admin: {
components: {
views: {
MyCustomView: {
Component: MyCustomView,
path: '/my-custom-view',
},
},
},
},
}
```
<Banner type="warning">
<strong>Note:</strong>
<br />
Routes are cascading. This means that unless explicitly given the `exact` property, they will match on URLs that simply _start_ with the route's path. This is helpful when creating catch-all routes in your application. Alternatively, you could define your nested route _before_ your parent route.
</Banner>

For help on how to build your own custom view components, see [building a custom view component](#building-a-custom-view-component).
### Collections
You can override components on a collection-by-collection basis via the `admin.components` property.
| **`BeforeList`** | Array of components to inject _before_ the built-in List view |
| **`BeforeListTable`** | Array of components to inject _before_ the built-in List view's table |
| **`AfterList`** | Array of components to inject _after_ the built-in List view |
| **`AfterListTable`** | Array of components to inject _after_ the built-in List view's table |
| **`edit.SaveButton`** | Replace the default `Save` button with a custom component. Drafts must be disabled |
| **`edit.SaveDraftButton`** | Replace the default `Save Draft` button with a custom component. Drafts must be enabled and autosave must be disabled. |
| **`edit.PublishButton`** | Replace the default `Publish` button with a custom component. Drafts must be enabled. |
| **`edit.PreviewButton`** | Replace the default `Preview` button with a custom component. |
| **`views`** | Override or create new views within the Payload Admin UI. [More](#collection-views) |
Here is a full example showing how to swap some of these components for your own:
To swap out entire views on collections, you can use the `admin.components.views` property on the collection's config. Payload renders the following views by default, all of which can be overridden:
| **`Edit`** | The Edit view is used to edit a single document for a given collection. |
| **`List`** | The List view is used to show a list of documents for a given collection. |
To swap out any of these views, simply pass in your custom component to the `admin.components.views` property of your Payload config. This will replace the entire view, including the page breadcrumbs, title, tabs, etc, _as well as all nested routes_.
```ts
// Collection.ts
{
// ...
admin: {
components: {
views: {
Edit: MyCustomEditView,
List: MyCustomListView,
},
},
},
}
```
_For help on how to build your own custom view components, see [building a custom view component](#building-a-custom-view-component)._
**Customizing Nested Views within 'Edit' in Collections**
The `Edit` view in collections consists of several nested views, each serving a unique purpose. You can customize these nested views using the `admin.components.views.Edit` property in the collection's configuration. This approach allows you to replace specific nested views while keeping the overall structure of the `Edit` view intact, including the page breadcrumbs, title, tabs, etc.
Here's an example of how you can customize nested views within the `Edit` view in collections, including the use of the `actions` property:
```ts
// Collection.ts
{
// ...
admin: {
components: {
views: {
Edit: {
Default: {
Component: MyCustomDefaultTab,
actions: [CollectionEditButton], // Custom actions for the default edit view
},
API: {
Component: MyCustomAPIView,
actions: [CollectionAPIButton], // Custom actions for API view
},
LivePreview: {
Component: MyCustomLivePreviewView,
actions: [CollectionLivePreviewButton], // Custom actions for Live Preview
},
Version: {
Component: MyCustomVersionView,
actions: [CollectionVersionButton], // Custom actions for Version view
},
Versions: {
Component: MyCustomVersionsView,
actions: [CollectionVersionsButton], // Custom actions for Versions view
},
},
List: {
actions: [CollectionListButton],
},
},
},
},
}
```
**Adding New Tabs to 'Edit' View**
You can also add _new_ tabs to the `Edit` view by adding another key to the `components.views.Edit[key]` object with a `path` and `Component` property. See [Custom Tabs](#custom-tabs) for more information.
### Globals
As with Collections, you can override components on a global-by-global basis via the `admin.components` property.
| **`elements.SaveButton`** | Replace the default `Save` button with a custom component. Drafts must be disabled |
| **`elements.SaveDraftButton`** | Replace the default `Save Draft` button with a custom component. Drafts must be enabled and autosave must be disabled. |
| **`elements.PublishButton`** | Replace the default `Publish` button with a custom component. Drafts must be enabled. |
| **`elements.PreviewButton`** | Replace the default `Preview` button with a custom component. |
| **`views`** | Override or create new views within the Payload Admin UI. [More](#global-views) |
#### Global views
To swap out views for globals, you can use the `admin.components.views` property on the global's config. Payload renders the following views by default, all of which can be overridden:
| **`Edit`** | The Edit view is used to edit a single document for a given Global. |
To swap out any of these views, simply pass in your custom component to the `admin.components.views` property of your Payload config. This will replace the entire view, including the page breadcrumbs, title, and tabs, _as well as all nested views_.
```ts
// Global.ts
{
// ...
admin: {
components: {
views: {
Edit: MyCustomEditView,
},
},
},
}
```
_For help on how to build your own custom view components, see [building a custom view component](#building-a-custom-view-component)._
**Customizing Nested Views within 'Edit' in Globals**
Similar to collections, Globals allow for detailed customization within the `Edit` view. This includes the ability to swap specific nested views while maintaining the overall structure of the `Edit` view. You can use the `admin.components.views.Edit` property in the Globals configuration to achieve this, and this will only replace the nested view, leaving the page breadcrumbs, title, and tabs intact.
Here's how you can customize nested views within the `Edit` view in Globals, including the use of the `actions` property:
```ts
// Global.ts
{
// ...
admin: {
components: {
views: {
Edit: {
Default: {
Component: MyCustomGlobalDefaultTab,
actions: [GlobalEditButton], // Custom actions for the default edit view
},
API: {
Component: MyCustomGlobalAPIView,
actions: [GlobalAPIButton], // Custom actions for API view
},
LivePreview: {
Component: MyCustomGlobalLivePreviewView,
actions: [GlobalLivePreviewButton], // Custom actions for Live Preview
},
Version: {
Component: MyCustomGlobalVersionView,
actions: [GlobalVersionButton], // Custom actions for Version view
},
Versions: {
Component: MyCustomGlobalVersionsView,
actions: [GlobalVersionsButton], // Custom actions for Versions view
},
},
},
},
},
}
```
You can also add _new_ tabs to the `Edit` view by adding another key to the `components.views.Edit[key]` object with a `path` and `Component` property. See [Custom Tabs](#custom-tabs) for more information.
### Custom Tabs
You can easily swap individual collection or global edit views. To do this, pass an _object_ to the `admin.components.views.Edit` property of the config. Payload renders the following views by default, all of which can be overridden:
Edit: { // You can also define `components.views.Edit` as a component, this will override _all_ nested views
Default: MyCustomDefaultTab,
Versions: MyCustomVersionsTab,
Version: MyCustomVersionTab,
API: MyCustomAPITab,
LivePreview: MyCustomLivePreviewTab,
},
},
},
},
}
```
To add a _new_ tab to the `Edit` view, simply add another key to `components.views.Edit[key]` with at least a `path` and `Component` property. For example:
| **`user`** | The currently logged in user. Will be `null` if no user is logged in. |
| **`canAccessAdmin`** \* | If the currently logged in user is allowed to access the admin panel or not. |
<Banner type="warning">
<strong>Note:</strong>
<br />
It's up to you to secure your custom views. If your view requires a user to be logged in or to
have certain access rights, you should handle that within your view component yourself.
</Banner>
#### Example
You can find examples of custom views in the [Payload source code `/test/admin/components/views` folder](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/tree/main/test/admin/components/views). There, you'll find two custom views:
1. A custom view that uses the `DefaultTemplate`, which is the built-in Payload template that displays the sidebar and "eyebrow nav"
1. A custom view that uses the `MinimalTemplate` - which is just a centered template used for things like logging in or out
To see how to pass in your custom views to create custom views of your own, take a look at the `admin.components.views` property of the [Payload test admin config](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/blob/main/test/admin/config.ts).
### Fields
All Payload fields support the ability to swap in your own React components. So, for example, instead of rendering a default Text input, you might need to render a color picker that provides the editor with a custom color picker interface to restrict the data entered to colors only.
<Banner type="success">
<strong>Tip:</strong>
<br />
Don't see a built-in field type that you need? Build it! Using a combination of custom validation
and custom components, you can override the entirety of how a component functions within the admin
panel and effectively create your own field type.
</Banner>
**Fields support the following custom components:**
| **`Filter`** | Override the text input that is presented in the `List` view when a user is filtering documents by the customized field. |
| **`Cell`** | Used in the `List` view's table to represent a table-based preview of the data stored in the field. [More](#cell-component) |
| **`Field`** | Swap out the field itself within all `Edit` views. [More](#field-component) |
As an alternative to replacing the entire Field component, you may want to keep the majority of the default Field component and only swap components within. This allows you to replace the **`Label`** or **`Error`** within a field component or add additional components inside the field with **`beforeInput`** or **`afterInput`**. **`beforeInput`** and **`afterInput`** are allowed in any fields that don't contain other fields, except [UI](/docs/fields/ui) and [Rich Text](/docs/fields/rich-text).
When writing your own custom components you can make use of a number of hooks to set data, get reactive changes to other fields, get the id of the document or interact with a context from a custom provider.
### Sending and receiving values from the form
When swapping out the `Field` component, you'll be responsible for sending and receiving the field's `value` from the form itself. To do so, import the `useField` hook as follows:
```tsx
import { useField } from 'payload/components/forms'
| **`showError`** | A boolean value that represents if the error should be shown. |
#### Example
```tsx
import React from 'react'
type Props = {
message: string
showError?: boolean
}
const CustomError: React.FC<Props> = (props) => {
const { message, showError } = props
if (showError) {
return <p style={{color: 'red'}}>{message}</p>
} else return null;
}
```
## afterInput and beforeInput
With these properties you can add multiple components before and after the input element. For example, you can add an absolutely positioned button to clear the current field value.
As your admin customizations gets more complex you may want to share state between fields or other components. You can add custom providers to do add your own context to any Payload app for use in other custom components within the admin panel. Within your config add `admin.components.providers`, these can be used to share context or provide other custom functionality. Read the [React context](https://reactjs.org/docs/context.html) docs to learn more.
<Banner type="warning">
<strong>Reminder:</strong> Don't forget to pass the **children** prop through the provider
component for the admin UI to show
</Banner>
### Styling Custom Components
Payload exports its SCSS variables and mixins for reuse in your own custom components. This is helpful in cases where you might want to style a custom input similarly to Payload's built-ini styling, so it blends more thoroughly into the existing admin UI.
To make use of Payload SCSS variables / mixins to use directly in your own components, you can import them as follows:
```
@import '~payload/scss';
```
### Getting the current language
When developing custom components you can support multiple languages to be consistent with Payload's i18n support. The best way to do this is to add your translation resources to the [i18n configuration](https://payloadcms.com/docs/configuration/i18n) and import `useTranslation` from `react-i18next` in your components.
In any custom component you can get the selected locale with `useLocale` hook. `useLocale` returns the full locale object, consisting of a `label`, `rtl`(right-to-left) property, and then `code`. Here is a simple example:
```tsx
import { useLocale } from 'payload/components/utilities'
Payload provides a variety of powerful hooks that can be used within your own React components. With them, you can interface with Payload itself and build just about any type of complex customization you can think of—directly in familiar React code.
### useField
The `useField` hook is used internally within every applicable Payload field component, and it manages sending and receiving a field's state from its parent form.
Outside of internal use, its most common use-case is in custom `Field` components. When you build a custom React `Field` component, you'll be responsible for sending and receiving the field's `value` from the form itself. To do so, import the `useField` hook as follows:
```tsx
import { useField } from 'payload/components/forms'
The `useField` hook accepts an `args` object and sends back information and helpers for you to make use of:
```ts
const field = useField<string>({
path: 'fieldPathHere', // required
validate: myValidateFunc, // optional
disableFormData?: false, // if true, the field's data will be ignored
condition?: myConditionHere, // optional, used to skip validation if condition fails
})
// Here is what `useField` sends back
const {
showError, // whether or not the field should show as errored
errorMessage, // the error message to show, if showError
value, // the current value of the field from the form
formSubmitted, // if the form has been submitted
formProcessing, // if the form is currently processing
setValue, // method to set the field's value in form state
initialValue, // the initial value that the field mounted with
} = field;
// The rest of your component goes here
```
### useFormFields
There are times when a custom field component needs to have access to data from other fields, and you have a few options to do so. The `useFormFields` hook is a powerful and highly performant way to retrieve a form's field state, as well as to retrieve the `dispatchFields` method, which can be helpful for setting other fields' form states from anywhere within a form.
<Banner type="success">
<strong>This hook is great for retrieving only certain fields from form state</strong> because it
ensures that it will only cause a rerender when the items that you ask for change.
</Banner>
Thanks to the awesome package [`use-context-selector`](https://github.com/dai-shi/use-context-selector), you can retrieve a specific field's state easily. This is ideal because you can ensure you have an up-to-date field state, and your component will only re-render when _that field's state_ changes.
You can pass a Redux-like selector into the hook, which will ensure that you retrieve only the field that you want. The selector takes an argument with type of `[fields: Fields, dispatch: React.Dispatch<Action>]]`.
```tsx
import { useFormFields } from 'payload/components/forms'
const MyComponent: React.FC = () => {
// Get only the `amount` field state, and only cause a rerender when that field changes
return <span>The fee is ${(amount.value * feePercentage.value) / 100}</span>
}
}
```
### useAllFormFields
**To retrieve more than one field**, you can use the `useAllFormFields` hook. Your component will re-render when _any_ field changes, so use this hook only if you absolutely need to. Unlike the `useFormFields` hook, this hook does not accept a "selector", and it always returns an array with type of `[fields: Fields, dispatch: React.Dispatch<Action>]]`.
You can do lots of powerful stuff by retrieving the full form state, like using built-in helper functions to reduce field state to values only, or to retrieve sibling data by path.
```tsx
import { useAllFormFields, reduceFieldsToValues, getSiblingData } from 'payload/components/forms';
const ExampleComponent: React.FC = () => {
// the `fields` const will be equal to all fields' state,
// and the `dispatchFields` method is usable to send field state up to the form
If you are building a custom component, then you should use `setValue` which is returned from the `useField` hook to programmatically set your field's value. But if you're looking to update _another_ field's value, you can use `dispatchFields` returned from `useFormFields`.
You can send the following actions to the `dispatchFields` function.
| **`ADD_ROW`** | Adds a row of data (useful in array / block field data) |
| **`DUPLICATE_ROW`** | Duplicates a row of data (useful in array / block field data) |
| **`MODIFY_CONDITION`** | Updates a field's conditional logic result (true / false) |
| **`MOVE_ROW`** | Moves a row of data (useful in array / block field data) |
| **`REMOVE`** | Removes a field from form state |
| **`REMOVE_ROW`** | Removes a row of data from form state (useful in array / block field data) |
| **`REPLACE_STATE`** | Completely replaces form state |
| **`UPDATE`** | Update any property of a specific field's state |
To see types for each action supported within the `dispatchFields` hook, check out the Form types [here](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/blob/main/packages/payload/src/admin/components/forms/Form/types.ts).
### useForm
The `useForm` hook can be used to interact with the form itself, and sends back many methods that can be used to reactively fetch form state without causing rerenders within your components each time a field is changed. This is useful if you have action-based callbacks that your components fire, and need to interact with form state _based on a user action_.
<Banner type="warning">
<strong>Warning:</strong>
<br />
This hook is optimized to avoid causing rerenders when fields change, and as such, its `fields`
property will be out of date. You should only leverage this hook if you need to perform actions
against the form in response to your users' actions. Do not rely on its returned "fields" as being
up-to-date. They will be removed from this hook's response in an upcoming version.
</Banner>
The `useForm` hook returns an object with the following properties: |
<TableWithDrawers
columns={[
'Action',
'Description',
'Example',
]}
rows={[
[
{
value: <strong><code>fields</code></strong>,
},
{
value: "Deprecated. This property cannot be relied on as up-to-date.",
In any custom component you can get the selected locale object with the `useLocale` hook. `useLocale`gives you the full locale object, consisting of a `label`, `rtl`(right-to-left) property, and then `code`. Here is a simple example:
```tsx
import { useLocale } from 'payload/components/utilities'
const Greeting: React.FC = () => {
// highlight-start
const locale = useLocale()
// highlight-end
const trans = {
en: 'Hello',
es: 'Hola',
}
return <span> {trans[locale.code]} </span>
}
```
### useAuth
Useful to retrieve info about the currently logged in user as well as methods for interacting with it. It sends back an object with the following properties:
| **`logOut`** | A method to log out the currently logged in user |
| **`refreshCookie`** | A method to trigger the silent refreshing of a user's auth token |
| **`setToken`** | Set the token of the user, to be decoded and used to reset the user and token in memory |
| **`token`** | The logged in user's token (useful for creating preview links, etc.) |
| **`refreshPermissions`** | Load new permissions (useful when content that effects permissions has been changed) |
| **`permissions`** | The permissions of the current user |
```tsx
import { useAuth } from 'payload/components/utilities'
import { User } from '../payload-types.ts'
const Greeting: React.FC = () => {
// highlight-start
const { user } = useAuth<User>()
// highlight-end
return <span>Hi, {user.email}!</span>
}
```
### useConfig
Used to easily fetch the full Payload config.
```tsx
import { useConfig } from 'payload/components/utilities'
const MyComponent: React.FC = () => {
// highlight-start
const config = useConfig()
// highlight-end
return <span>{config.serverURL}</span>
}
```
### useEditDepth
Sends back how many editing levels "deep" the current component is. Edit depth is relevant while adding new documents / editing documents in modal windows and other cases.
```tsx
import { useEditDepth } from 'payload/components/utilities'
const MyComponent: React.FC = () => {
// highlight-start
const editDepth = useEditDepth()
// highlight-end
return <span>My component is {editDepth} levels deep</span>
}
```
### usePreferences
Returns methods to set and get user preferences. More info can be found [here](https://payloadcms.com/docs/admin/preferences).
### useTableColumns
Returns methods to manipulate table columns
```tsx
import { useTableColumns } from 'payload/components/hooks'
The `useDocumentEvents` hook provides a way of subscribing to cross-document events, such as updates made to nested documents within a drawer. This hook will report document events that are outside the scope of the document currently being edited. This hook provides the following:
| **`mostRecentUpdate`** | An object containing the most recently updated document. It contains the `entitySlug`, `id` (if collection), and `updatedAt` properties |
| **`reportUpdate`** | A method used to report updates to documents. It accepts the same arguments as the `mostRecentUpdate` property. |
**Example:**
```tsx
import { useDocumentEvents } from 'payload/components/hooks'
const ListenForUpdates: React.FC = () => {
const { mostRecentUpdate } = useDocumentEvents()
return (
<span>
{JSON.stringify(mostRecentUpdate)}
</span>
)
}
```
<Banner type="info">
Right now the `useDocumentEvents` hook only tracks recently updated documents, but in the future it will track more document-related events as needed, such as document creation, deletion, etc.
Enabling Authentication on a Collection automatically exposes additional auth-based operations in the Local, REST, and GraphQL APIs.
### Access
The Access operation returns what a logged in user can and can't do with the collections and globals that are registered via your config. This data can be immensely helpful if your app needs to show and hide certain features based on access control, as the Payload Admin panel does.
**REST API endpoint**:
`GET http://localhost:3000/api/access`
Example response:
```ts
{
canAccessAdmin: true,
collections: {
pages: {
create: {
permission: true,
},
read: {
permission: true,
},
update: {
permission: true,
},
delete: {
permission: true,
},
fields: {
title: {
create: {
permission: true,
},
read: {
permission: true,
},
update: {
permission: true,
},
}
}
}
}
}
```
**Example GraphQL Query**:
```graphql
query {
Access {
pages {
read {
permission
}
}
}
}
```
Document access can also be queried on a collection/global basis. Access on a global can queried like `http://localhost:3000/api/global-slug/access`, Collection document access can be queried like `http://localhost:3000/api/collection-slug/access/:id`.
### Me
Returns either a logged in user with token or null when there is no logged in user.
user: { // The JWT "payload" ;) from the logged in user
email: 'dev@payloadcms.com',
createdAt: "2020-12-27T21:16:45.645Z",
updatedAt: "2021-01-02T18:37:41.588Z",
id: "5ae8f9bde69e394e717c8832"
},
token: '34o4345324...', // The token that can be used to authenticate the user
exp: 1609619861, // Unix timestamp representing when the user's token will expire
}
```
**Example GraphQL Query**:
```graphql
query {
me[collection-singular-label] {
user {
email
}
exp
}
}
```
### Login
Accepts an `email` and `password`. On success, it will return the logged in user as well as a token that can be used to authenticate. In the GraphQL and REST APIs, this operation also automatically sets an HTTP-only cookie including the user's token. If you pass an Express `res` to the Local API operation, Payload will set a cookie there as well.
**Example REST API login**:
```ts
const res = await fetch('http://localhost:3000/api/[collection-slug]/login', {
As Payload sets HTTP-only cookies, logging out cannot be done by just removing a cookie in JavaScript, as HTTP-only cookies are inaccessible by JS within the browser. So, Payload exposes a `logout` operation to delete the token in a safe way.
**Example REST API logout**:
```ts
const res = await fetch('http://localhost:3000/api/[collection-slug]/logout', {
method: 'POST',
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
},
})
```
**Example GraphQL Mutation**:
```
mutation {
logout[collection-singular-label]
}
```
### Refresh
Allows for "refreshing" JWTs. If your user has a token that is about to expire, but the user is still active and using the app, you might want to use the `refresh` operation to receive a new token by sending the operation the token that is about to expire.
This operation requires a non-expired token to send back a new one. If the user's token has already expired, you will need to allow them to log in again to retrieve a new token.
If successful, this operation will automatically renew the user's HTTP-only cookie and will send back the updated token in JSON.
**Example REST API token refresh**:
```ts
const res = await fetch('http://localhost:3000/api/[collection-slug]/refresh-token', {
method: 'POST',
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
},
})
const json = await res.json()
// JSON will be equal to the following:
/*
{
user: {
email: 'dev@payloadcms.com',
createdAt: "2020-12-27T21:16:45.645Z",
updatedAt: "2021-01-02T18:37:41.588Z",
id: "5ae8f9bde69e394e717c8832"
},
refreshedToken: '34o4345324...',
exp: 1609619861
}
*/
```
**Example GraphQL Mutation**:
```
mutation {
refreshToken[collection-singular-label] {
user {
email
}
refreshedToken
}
}
```
<Banner type="success">
The Refresh operation will automatically find the user's token in either a JWT header or the
HTTP-only cookie. But, you can specify the token you're looking to refresh by providing the REST
API with a `token` within the JSON body of the request, or by providing the GraphQL resolver a
`token` arg.
</Banner>
### Verify by Email
If your collection supports email verification, the Verify operation will be exposed which accepts a verification token and sets the user's `_verified` property to `true`, thereby allowing the user to authenticate with the Payload API.
**Example REST API user verification**:
```ts
const res = await fetch(`http://localhost:3000/api/[collection-slug]/verify/${TOKEN_HERE}`, {
If a user locks themselves out and you wish to deliberately unlock them, you can utilize the Unlock operation. The Admin panel features an Unlock control automatically for all collections that feature max login attempts, but you can programmatically unlock users as well by using the Unlock operation.
To restrict who is allowed to unlock users, you can utilize the [`unlock`](/docs/access-control/overview#unlock) access control function.
**Example REST API unlock**:
```ts
const res = await fetch(`http://localhost:3000/api/[collection-slug]/unlock`, {
method: 'POST',
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
},
})
```
**Example GraphQL Mutation**:
```
mutation {
unlock[collection-singular-label]
}
```
**Example Local API unlock**:
```ts
const result = await payload.unlock({
collection: '[collection-slug]',
})
```
### Forgot Password
Payload comes with built-in forgot password functionality. Submitting an email address to the Forgot Password operation will generate an email and send it to the respective email address with a link to reset their password.
The link to reset the user's password contains a token which is what allows the user to securely reset their password.
By default, the Forgot Password operations send users to the Payload Admin panel to reset their password, but you can customize the generated email to send users to the frontend of your app instead by [overriding the email HTML](/docs/authentication/config#forgot-password).
**Example REST API Forgot Password**:
```ts
const res = await fetch(`http://localhost:3000/api/[collection-slug]/forgot-password`, {
disableEmail: false, // you can disable the auto-generation of email via local API
})
```
<Banner type="success">
<strong>Tip:</strong>
<br />
You can stop the reset-password email from being sent via using the local API. This is helpful if
you need to create user accounts programmatically, but not set their password for them. This
effectively generates a reset password token which you can then use to send to a page you create,
allowing a user to "complete" their account by setting their password. In the background, you'd
use the token to "reset" their password.
</Banner>
### Reset Password
After a user has "forgotten" their password and a token is generated, that token can be used to send to the reset password operation along with a new password which will allow the user to reset their password securely.
**Example REST API Reset Password**:
```ts
const res = await fetch(`http://localhost:3000/api/[collection-slug]/reset-password`, {
_A screenshot of the Overview page for a Cloud project._
### Database
Your Payload Cloud project comes with a MongoDB serverless Atlas DB instance or a Dedicated Atlas cluster, depending on your plan. To interact with your cloud database, you will be provided with a MongoDB connection string. This can be found under the **Database** tab of your project.
`mongodb+srv://your_connection_string`
### File Storage
Payload Cloud gives you S3 file storage backed by Cloudflare as a CDN, and this plugin extends Payload so that all of your media will be stored in S3 rather than locally.
AWS Cognito is used for authentication to your S3 bucket. The[Payload Cloud Plugin](https://github.com/payloadcms/plugin-cloud)will automatically pick up these values. These values are only if you'd like to access your files directly, outside of Payload Cloud.
### Build Settings
You can update settings from your Project’s Settings tab. Changes to your build settings will trigger a redeployment of your project.
### Environment Variables
From the Environment Variables page of the Settings tab, you can add, update and delete variables for use in your project. Like build settings, these changes will trigger a redeployment of your project.
<Banner>
Note: For security reasons, any variables you wish to provide to the Admin panel must be prefixed
With Payload Cloud, you can add custom domain names to your project. To do so, first go to the Domains page of the Settings tab of your project. Here you can see your default domain. To add a new domain, type in the domain name you wish to use.
<Banner>
Note: do not include the protocol (http:// or https://) or any paths (/page). Only include the
domain name and extension, and optionally a subdomain. - your-domain.com - backend.your-domain.com
</Banner>
Once you click save, a DNS record will be generated for your domain name to point to your live project. Add this record into your DNS provider’s records, and once the records are resolving properly (this can take 1hr to 48hrs in some cases), your domain will now to point to your live project.
You will also need to configure your Payload project to use your specified domain. In your `payload.config.ts` file, specify your `serverURL` with your domain:
```ts
export default buildConfig({
serverURL: 'https://example.com',
// the rest of your config,
})
```
### Email
Powered by [Resend](https://resend.com), Payload Cloud comes with integrated email support out of the box. No configuration is needed, and you can use `payload.sendEmail()` to send email right from your Payload app. To learn more about sending email with Payload, checkout the [Email Configuration](https://payloadcms.com/docs/email/overview) overview.
If you are on the Pro or Enterprise plan, you can add your own custom Email domain name. From the Email page of your project’s Settings, add the domain you wish to use for email delivery. This will generate a set of DNS records. Add these records to your DNS provider and click verify to check that your records are resolving properly. Once verified, your emails will now be sent from your custom domain name.
### Developing Locally
To make changes to your project, you will need to clone the repository defined in your project settings to your local machine. In order to run your project locally, you will need configure your local environment first. Refer to your repository’s `README.md` file to see the steps needed for your specific template.
From there, you are ready to make updates to your project. When you are ready to make your changes live, commit your changes to the branch you specified in your Project settings, and your application will automatically trigger a redeploy and build from your latest commit.
### Cloud Plugin
Projects generated from a template will come pre-configured with the official Cloud Plugin, but if you are using your own repository you will need to add this into your project. To do so, add the plugin to your Payload config:
`yarn add @payloadcms/plugin-cloud`
```js
import { payloadCloud } from '@payloadcms/plugin-cloud'
import { buildConfig } from 'payload/config'
export default buildConfig({
plugins: [payloadCloud()],
// rest of config
})
```
<Banner type="warning">
**Note:** If your Payload config already has an email with transport, this will take precedence
over Payload Cloud's email service.
</Banner>
##### **Optional configuration**
If you wish to opt-out of any Payload cloud features, the plugin also accepts options to do so.
desc: Structure your Collections for your needs by defining fields, adding slugs and labels, establishing access control, tying in hooks, setting timestamps and more.

{
name: 'total',
type: 'number',
required: true,
},
{
name: 'placedBy',
type: 'relationship',
relationTo: 'customers',
required: true,
},
],
}
```
#### More collection config examples
You can find an assortment
of [example collection configs](https://github.com/payloadcms/public-demo/tree/master/src/payload/collections) in the Public
Demo source code on GitHub.
### Admin options
You can customize the way that the Admin panel behaves on a collection-by-collection basis by defining the `admin`
| `group` | Text used as a label for grouping collection and global links together in the navigation. |
| `hidden` | Set to true or a function, called with the current user, returning true to exclude this collection from navigation and admin routing. |
| `hooks` | Admin-specific hooks for this collection. [More](#admin-hooks) |
| `useAsTitle` | Specify a top-level field to use for a document title throughout the Admin panel. If no field is defined, the ID of the document is used as the title. |
| `description` | Text or React component to display below the Collection label in the List view to give editors more information. |
| `defaultColumns` | Array of field names that correspond to which columns to show by default in this collection's List view. |
| `disableDuplicate ` | Disables the "Duplicate" button while editing documents within this collection. |
| `hideAPIURL` | Hides the "API URL" meta field while editing documents within this collection. |
| `enableRichTextLink` | The [Rich Text](/docs/fields/rich-text) field features a `Link` element which allows for users to automatically reference related documents within their rich text. Set to `true` by default. |
| `enableRichTextRelationship` | The [Rich Text](/docs/fields/rich-text) field features a `Relationship` element which allows for users to automatically reference related documents within their rich text. Set to `true` by default. |
| `preview` | Function to generate preview URLS within the Admin panel that can point to your app. [More](#preview). |
| `livePreview` | Enable real-time editing for instant visual feedback of your front-end application. [More](/docs/live-preview/overview). |

| `listSearchableFields` | Specify which fields should be searched in the List search view. [More](#list-searchable-fields) |
| **`pagination`** | Set pagination-specific options for this collection. [More](#pagination) |
### Preview
Collection `admin` options can accept a `preview` function that will be used to generate a link pointing to the frontend
of your app to preview data.
If the function is specified, a Preview button will automatically appear in the corresponding collection's Edit view.
Clicking the Preview button will link to the URL that is generated by the function.
**The preview function accepts two arguments:**
1. The document being edited
1. An `options` object, containing `locale` and `token` properties. The `token` is the currently logged-in user's JWT.
Global configs are in many ways similar to [Collections](/docs/configuration/collections). The big difference is that Collections will potentially contain _many_ documents, while a Global is a "one-off". Globals are perfect for things like header nav, site-wide banner alerts, app-wide localized strings, and other "global" data that your site or app might rely on.
As with Collection configs, it's often best practice to write your Globals in separate files and then import them into the main Payload config.
| **`slug`** \* | Unique, URL-friendly string that will act as an identifier for this Global. |
| **`fields`** \* | Array of field types that will determine the structure and functionality of the data stored within this Global. [Click here](/docs/fields/overview) for a full list of field types as well as how to configure them. |
| **`label`** | Text for the name in the Admin panel or an object with keys for each language. Auto-generated from slug if not defined. |
| **`description`** | Text or React component to display below the Global header to give editors more information. |
| **`admin`** | Admin-specific configuration. See below for [more detail](/docs/configuration/globals#admin-options). |
| **`hooks`** | Entry points to "tie in" to collection actions at specific points. [More](/docs/hooks/overview#global-hooks) |
| **`access`** | Provide access control functions to define exactly who should be able to do what with this Global. [More](/docs/access-control/overview/#globals) |
| **`versions`** | Set to true to enable default options, or configure with object properties. [More](/docs/versions/overview#globals-config) |
| **`endpoints`** | Add custom routes to the REST API. [More](/docs/rest-api/overview#custom-endpoints) |
| **`graphQL.name`** | Text used in schema generation. Auto-generated from slug if not defined. |
| **`typescript`** | An object with property `interface` as the text used in schema generation. Auto-generated from slug if not defined. |
| **`custom`** | Extension point for adding custom data (e.g. for plugins) |
_\* An asterisk denotes that a property is required._
#### Simple Global example
```ts
import { GlobalConfig } from 'payload/types'
const Nav: GlobalConfig = {
slug: 'nav',
fields: [
{
name: 'items',
type: 'array',
required: true,
maxRows: 8,
fields: [
{
name: 'page',
type: 'relationship',
relationTo: 'pages', // "pages" is the slug of an existing collection
required: true,
},
],
},
],
}
export default Nav
```
#### Global config example
You can find a few [example Global configs](https://github.com/payloadcms/public-demo/tree/master/src/payload/globals) in the Public Demo source code on GitHub.
### Admin options
You can customize the way that the Admin panel behaves on a Global-by-Global basis by defining the `admin` property on a Global's config.
| `group` | Text used as a label for grouping collection and global links together in the navigation. |
| `hidden` | Set to true or a function, called with the current user, returning true to exclude this global from navigation and admin routing. |
| `components` | Swap in your own React components to be used within this Global. [More](/docs/admin/components#globals) |
| `preview` | Function to generate a preview URL within the Admin panel for this global that can point to your app. [More](#preview). |
| `livePreview`| Enable real-time editing for instant visual feedback of your front-end application. [More](/docs/live-preview/overview). |
| `hideAPIURL` | Hides the "API URL" meta field while editing documents within this collection. |
### Preview
Global `admin` options can accept a `preview` function that will be used to generate a link pointing to the frontend of your app to preview data.
If the function is specified, a Preview button will automatically appear in the corresponding global's Edit view. Clicking the Preview button will link to the URL that is generated by the function.
**The preview function accepts two arguments:**
1. The document being edited
1. An `options` object, containing `locale` and `token` properties. The `token` is the currently logged-in user's JWT.
As with Collections, you can specify extremely granular access control (what users can do with this Global) on a Global-by-Global basis. However, Globals only have `update` and `read` access control due to their nature of only having one document. To learn more, go to the [Access Control](/docs/access-control/overview) docs.
### Hooks
Globals also fully support a smaller subset of Hooks. To learn more, go to the [Hooks](/docs/hooks/overview) documentation.
### Field types
Globals support all field types that Payload has to offer—including simple fields like text and checkboxes all the way to more complicated layout-building field groups like Blocks. [Click here](/docs/fields/overview) to learn more about field types.
### TypeScript
You can import global types as follows:
```ts
import { GlobalConfig } from 'payload/types'
// This is the type used for incoming global configs.
// Only the bare minimum properties are marked as required.
```
```ts
import { SanitizedGlobalConfig } from 'payload/types'
// This is the type used after an incoming global config is fully sanitized.
// Generally, this is only used internally by Payload.
desc: Add and maintain as many locales as you need by adding Localization to your Payload config, set options for default locale, fallbacks, fields and more.
Payload features deep field-based localization support. Maintaining as many locales as you need is easy. All localization support is opt-in by default. To do so, follow the two steps below.
### Enabling in the Payload config
Add the `localization` property to your Payload config to enable localization project-wide. You'll need to provide a list of all locales that you'd like to support as well as set a few other options.
**Example Payload config set up for localization:**
```ts
import { buildConfig } from 'payload/config'
export default buildConfig({
collections: [
// collections go here
],
localization: {
locales: ['en', 'es', 'de'],
defaultLocale: 'en',
fallback: true,
},
})
```
**Example Payload config set up for localization with full locales objects:**
```ts
import { buildConfig } from 'payload/config'
export default buildConfig({
collections: [
// collections go here
],
localization: {
locales: [
{
label: 'English',
code: 'en',
},
{
label: 'Arabic',
code: 'ar',
// opt-in to setting default text-alignment on Input fields to rtl (right-to-left) when current locale is rtl
rtl: true,
},
],
defaultLocale: 'en',
fallback: true,
},
})
```
**Example Payload config set up for localization with full locales objects (including [internationalization](/docs/configuration/i18n) support):**
```ts
import { buildConfig } from 'payload/config'
export default buildConfig({
collections: [
// collections go here
],
localization: {
locales: [
{
label: {
en: 'English', // English label
nb: 'Engelsk', // Norwegian label
},
code: 'en',
},
{
label: {
en: 'Norwegian', // English label
nb: 'Norsk', // Norwegian label
},
code: 'nb',
},
],
defaultLocale: 'en',
fallback: true,
},
})
```
**Here is a brief explanation of each of the options available within the `localization` property:**
**`locales`**
Array-based list of all locales that you would like to support. These can be strings of locale codes or objects with a `label`, a locale `code`, and the `rtl` (right-to-left) property. The locale codes do not need to be in any specific format. It's up to you to define how to represent your locales. Common patterns are to use two-letter ISO 639 language codes or four-letter language and country codes (ISO 3166‑1) such as `en-US`, `en-UK`, `es-MX`, etc.
**`defaultLocale`**
Required string that matches one of the locale codes from the array provided. By default, if no locale is specified, documents will be returned in this locale.
**`fallback`**
Boolean enabling "fallback" locale functionality. If a document is requested in a locale, but a field does not have a localized value corresponding to the requested locale, then if this property is enabled, the document will automatically fall back to the fallback locale value. If this property is not enabled, the value will not be populated.
### Field by field localization
Payload localization works on a **field** level—not a document level. In addition to configuring the base Payload config to support localization, you need to specify each field that you would like to localize.
**Here is an example of how to enable localization for a field:**
```js
{
name: 'title',
type: 'text',
// highlight-start
localized: true,
// highlight-end
}
```
With the above configuration, the `title` field will now be saved in the database as an object of all locales instead of a single string.
All field types with a `name` property support the `localized` property—even the more complex field types like `array`s and `block`s.
<Banner>
<strong>Note:</strong>
<br />
Enabling localization for field types that support nested fields will automatically create
localized "sets" of all fields contained within the field. For example, if you have a page layout
using a blocks field type, you have the choice of either localizing the full layout, by enabling
localization on the top-level blocks field, or only certain fields within the layout.
</Banner>
<Banner type="warning">
<strong>Important:</strong>
<br />
When converting an existing field to or from `localized: true` the data structure in the document
will change for this field and so existing data for this field will be lost. Before changing the
localization setting on fields with existing data, you may need to consider a field migration
strategy.
</Banner>
### Retrieving localized docs
When retrieving documents, you can specify which locale you'd like to receive as well as which fallback locale should be used.
##### REST API
REST API locale functionality relies on URL query parameters.
**`?locale=`**
Specify your desired locale by providing the `locale` query parameter directly in the endpoint URL.
**`?fallback-locale=`**
Specify fallback locale to be used by providing the `fallback-locale` query parameter. This can be provided as either a valid locale as provided to your base Payload config, or `'null'`, `'false'`, or `'none'` to disable falling back.
In the GraphQL API, you can specify `locale` and `fallbackLocale` args to all relevant queries and mutations.
The `locale` arg will only accept valid locales, but locales will be formatted automatically as valid GraphQL enum values (dashes or special characters will be converted to underscores, spaces will be removed, etc.). If you are curious to see how locales are auto-formatted, you can use the [GraphQL playground](/docs/graphql/overview#graphql-playground).
The `fallbackLocale` arg will accept valid locales as well as `none` to disable falling back.
**Example:**
```graphql
query {
Posts(locale: de, fallbackLocale: none) {
docs {
title
}
}
}
```
<Banner>
In GraphQL, specifying the locale at the top level of a query will automatically apply it
throughout all nested relationship fields. You can override this behavior by re-specifying locale
arguments in nested related document queries.
</Banner>
##### Local API
You can specify `locale` as well as `fallbackLocale` within the Local API as well as properties on the `options` argument. The `locale` property will accept any valid locale, and the `fallbackLocale` property will accept any valid locale as well as `'null'`, `'false'`, `false`, and `'none'`.
**Example:**
```js
const posts = await payload.find({
collection: 'posts',
locale: 'es',
fallbackLocale: false,
})
```
<Banner type="alert">
<strong>Tip:</strong>
<br />
The REST and Local APIs can return all localization data in one request by passing 'all' or '*' as
the <strong>locale</strong> parameter. The response will be structured so that field values come
back as the full objects keyed for each locale instead of the single, translated value.
desc: The Payload config is central to everything that Payload does, from adding custom React components, to modifying collections, controlling localization and much more.
Payload is a _config-based_, code-first CMS and application framework. The Payload config is central to everything that Payload does. It scaffolds the data that Payload stores as well as maintains custom React components, hook logic, custom validations, and much more.
**Also, because the Payload source code is fully written in TypeScript, its configs are strongly typed—meaning that even if you aren't using TypeScript, your IDE (such as VSCode) may still provide helpful information like type-ahead suggestions while you write your config.**

```
#### Full example config
You can see a full [example config](https://github.com/payloadcms/public-demo/blob/master/src/payload/payload.config.ts) in the Public Demo source code on GitHub.
### Using environment variables in your config
We suggest using the `dotenv` package to handle environment variables alongside of Payload. All that's necessary to do is to require the package as high up in your application as possible (for example, at the top of your `server.js` file), and ensure that it can find an `.env` file that you create.
**Add this line to the top of your server:**
```
require('dotenv').config()
// ...
// the rest of your `server.js` file goes here
```
Note that if you rely on any environment variables in your config itself, you should also call `dotenv()` at the top of your config itself as well. There's no harm in calling it in both your server and your config itself!
**Here is an example project structure w/ `dotenv` and an `.env` file:**
```
project-name
---- .env
---- package.json
---- payload.config.js
---- server.js
```
<Banner type="warning">
<strong>Important:</strong>
<br />
If you use an environment variable to configure any properties that are required for the Admin
panel to function (ex. serverURL or any routes), you need to make sure that your Admin panel code
can access it. [Click here](/docs/admin/webpack#admin-environment-vars) for more info.
Payload is designed to automatically locate your configuration file. By default, it will first look in the root of your current working directory for a file named `payload.config.js` or `payload.config.ts` if you're using TypeScript.
In development mode, if the configuration file is not found at the root, Payload will attempt to read your `tsconfig.json`, and search in the directory specified in `compilerOptions.rootDir` (typically "src").
In production mode, Payload will first attempt to find the config file in the output directory specified in `compilerOptions.outDir` of your `tsconfig.json`, then fallback to the source directory (`compilerOptions.rootDir`), and finally will check the 'dist' directory.
Please ensure your `tsconfig.json` is properly configured if you want Payload to accurately auto-detect your configuration file location. If `tsconfig.json` does not exist or doesn't specify `rootDir` or `outDir`, Payload will default to the current working directory.
#### Overriding the Config Location
In addition to the above automated detection, you can specify your own location for the Payload config file. This is done by using the environment variable `PAYLOAD_CONFIG_PATH`. The path you provide via this environment variable can either be absolute or relative to your current working directory. This can be useful in situations where your Payload config is not in a standard location, or you wish to switch between multiple configurations.
When `PAYLOAD_CONFIG_PATH` is set, Payload will use this path to load the configuration, bypassing all automated detection.
### Developing within the Config
Payload comes with `isomorphic-fetch` installed which means that even in Node, you can use the `fetch` API just as you would within the browser. No need to import `axios` or similar, unless you want to!
### TypeScript
You can import config types as follows:
```ts
import { Config } from 'payload/config'
// This is the type used for an incoming Payload config.
// Only the bare minimum properties are marked as required.
```
```ts
import { SanitizedConfig } from 'payload/config'
// This is the type used after an incoming Payload config is fully sanitized.
// Generally, this is only used internally by Payload.
```
### Telemetry
Payload collects **completely anonymous** telemetry data about general usage. This data is super important to us and helps us accurately understand how we're growing and what we can do to build the software into everything that it can possibly be. The telemetry that we collect also help us demonstrate our growth in an accurate manner, which helps us as we seek investment to build and scale our team. If we can accurately demonstrate our growth, we can more effectively continue to support Payload as free and open-source software. To opt out of telemetry, you can pass `telemetry: false` within your Payload config.
For more information about what we track, take a look at our [privacy policy](/privacy).
desc: Payload features first-party database migrations all done in TypeScript.
---
Payload exposes a full suite of migration controls available for your use. Migration commands are accessible via the `npm run payload` command in your project directory.
Ensure you have an npm script called "payload" in your `package.json` file.
Note that you need to run Payload migrations through the package manager that you are using, because Payload should not be globally installed on your system.
</Banner>
### Migration file contents
Payload stores all created migrations in a folder that you can specify. By default, migrations are stored in `./src/migrations`.
A migration file has two exports - an `up` function, which is called when a migration is executed, and a `down` function that will be called if for some reason the migration fails to complete successfully. The `up` function should contain all changes that you attempt to make within the migration, and the `down` should ideally revert any changes you make.
For an added level of safety, migrations should leverage Payload [transactions](/docs/database/transactions).
Here is an example migration file:
```ts
import { MigrateUpArgs, MigrateDownArgs } from '@payloadcms/your-db-adapter'
export async function up({ payload }: MigrateUpArgs): Promise<void> {
// Perform changes to your database here.
// You have access to `payload` as an argument, and
// everything is done in TypeScript.
};
export async function down({ payload }: MigrateDownArgs): Promise<void> {
// Do whatever you need to revert changes if the `up` function fails
};
```
### Migrations Directory
Each DB adapter has an optional property `migrationDir` where you can override where you want your migrations to be stored/read. If this is not specified, Payload will check the default and possibly make a best effort to find your migrations directory by searching in common locations ie. `./src/migrations`, `./dist/migrations`, `./migrations`, etc.
All database adapters should implement similar migration patterns, but there will be small differences based on the adapter and its specific needs. Below is a list of all migration commands that should be supported by your database adapter.
## Commands
### Migrate
The `migrate` command will run any migrations that have not yet been run.
```text
npm run payload migrate
```
### Create
Create a new migration file in the migrations directory. You can optionally name the migration that will be created. By default, migrations will be named using a timestamp.
```text
npm run payload migrate:create optional-name-here
```
### Status
The `migrate:status` command will check the status of migrations and output a table of which migrations have been run, and which migrations have not yet run.
`payload migrate:status`
```text
npm run payload migrate:status
```
### Down
Roll back the last batch of migrations.
```text
npm run payload migrate:down
```
### Refresh
Roll back all migrations that have been run, and run them again.
```text
npm run payload migrate:refresh
```
### Reset
Roll back all migrations.
```text
npm run payload migrate:reset
```
### Fresh
Drops all entities from the database and re-runs all migrations from scratch.
To use Payload with MongoDB, install the package `@payloadcms/db-mongodb`. It will come with everything you need to store your Payload data in MongoDB.
Then from there, pass it to your Payload config as follows:
```ts
import { mongooseAdapter } from '@payloadcms/db-mongodb'
| `autoPluralization` | Tell Mongoose to auto-pluralize any collection names if it encounters any singular words used as collection `slug`s. |
| `connectOptions` | Customize MongoDB connection options. Payload will connect to your MongoDB database using default options which you can override and extend to include all the [options](https://mongoosejs.com/docs/connections.html#options) available to mongoose. |
| `disableIndexHints` | Set to true to disable hinting to MongoDB to use 'id' as index. This is currently done when counting documents for pagination, as it increases the speed of the count function used in that query. Disabling this optimization might fix some problems with AWS DocumentDB. Defaults to false |
| `migrationDir` | Customize the directory that migrations are stored. |
### Access to Mongoose models
After Payload is initialized, this adapter exposes all of your Mongoose models and they are available for you to work with directly.
We will be adding support for SQLite and MySQL in the near future using Drizzle ORM.
To use a specific database adapter, you need to install it and configure it according to its own specifications. Visit the documentation for your applicable database adapter to learn more.
## Selecting a database
There are several factors to consider when choosing which database technology and hosting option is right for your project and workload. Payload can theoretically support any database, but it's up to you to decide which database to use.
#### When to use MongoDB
If your project has a lot of dynamic fields, and you are comfortable with allowing Payload to enforce data integrity across your documents, MongoDB is a great choice. With it, your Payload documents are stored as _one_ document in your database—no matter if you have localization enabled, how many block or array fields you have, etc. This means that the shape of your data in your database will very closely reflect your field schema, and there is minimal complexity involved in storing or retrieving your data.
You should prefer MongoDB if:
- You prefer simplicity within your database
- You don't want to deal with keeping production / staging databases in sync via [DDL changes](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_definition_language)
- Most (or everything) in your project is localized
- You leverage a lot of array fields, block fields, or `hasMany` select fields and similar
#### When to use a relational DB
Many projects might call for more rigid database architecture where the shape of your data is strongly enforced at the database level. For example, if you know the shape of your data and it's relatively "flat", and you don't anticipate it to change often, your workload might suit relational databases like Postgres very well.
You should prefer a relational DB like Postgres if:
- You are comfortable with migration workflows
- You require enforced data consistency at the database level
- You have a lot of relationships between collections and require relationships to be enforced
#### Differences in Payload features
It's important to note that almost everything Payload does is available in all of our officially supported database adapters, including localization, arrays, blocks, etc.
The only thing that is not supported in Postgres yet is the [Point field](/docs/fields/point), but that should be added soon.
It's up to you to choose which database you would like to use.
## Configuration
To configure the database for your Payload application, an adapter can be assigned to `config.db`. This property is required within your Payload config.
Here's an example:
```ts
import { postgresAdapter } from '@payloadcms/db-postgres'
export default buildConfig({
// Your config goes here
collections: [
// Collections go here
],
// Here is where you pass your database adapter
// and the adapter will require options specific to itself
To use Payload with Postgres, install the package `@payloadcms/db-postgres`. It leverages Drizzle ORM and `node-postgres` to interact with a Postgres database that you provide.
<Banner>
The Postgres database adapter is currently in beta. If you would like to help us test this package, we'd love to hear if you find any bugs or issues!
</Banner>
It automatically manages changes to your database for you in development mode, and exposes a full suite of migration controls for you to leverage in order to keep other database environments in sync with your schema. DDL transformations are automatically generated.
To configure Payload to use Postgres, pass the `postgresAdapter` to your Payload config as follows:
```ts
import { postgresAdapter } from '@payloadcms/db-postgres'
| `pool` | [Pool connection options](https://orm.drizzle.team/docs/quick-postgresql/node-postgres) that will be passed to Drizzle and `node-postgres`. |
| `push` | Disable Drizzle's [`db push`](https://orm.drizzle.team/kit-docs/overview#prototyping-with-db-push) in development mode. By default, `push` is enabled for development mode only. |
| `migrationDir` | Customize the directory that migrations are stored. |
### Access to Drizzle
After Payload is initialized, this adapter will expose the full power of Drizzle to you for use if you need it.
You can access Drizzle as follows:
```text
payload.db.drizzle
```
### Tables, relations, and enums
In addition to exposing Drizzle directly, all of the tables, Drizzle relations, and enum configs are exposed for you via the `payload.db` property as well.
- Tables - `payload.db.tables`
- Enums - `payload.db.enums`
- Relations - `payload.db.relations`
### Prototyping in development mode
Drizzle exposes two ways to work locally in development mode.
The first is [`db push`](https://orm.drizzle.team/kit-docs/overview#prototyping-with-db-push), which automatically pushes changes you make to your Payload config (and therefore, Drizzle schema) to your database so you don't have to manually migrate every time you change your Payload config. This only works in development mode, and should not be mixed with manually running [`migrate`](/docs/database/migrations) commands.
You will be warned if any changes that you make will entail data loss while in development mode. Push is enabled by default, but you can opt out if you'd like.
Alternatively, you can disable `push` and rely solely on migrations to keep your local database in sync with your Payload config.
### Migration workflows
Migrations are extremely powerful thanks to the seamless way that Payload and Drizzle work together. Let's take the following scenario:
1. You are building your Payload config locally, with a local database used for testing.
1. You have left the default setting of `push` enabled, so every time you change your Payload config (add or remove fields, collections, etc.), Drizzle will automatically push changes to your local DB.
1. Once you're done with your changes, or have completed a feature, you can run `npm run payload migrate:create`.
1. Payload and Drizzle will look for any existing migrations, and automatically generate all SQL changes necessary to convert your schema from its prior state into the state of your current Payload config, and store the resulting DDL in a newly created migration.
1. Once you're ready to go to production, you will be able to run `npm run payload migrate` against your production database, which will apply any new migrations that have not yet run.
1. Now your production database is in sync with your Payload config!
<Banner type="warning">
Warning: do not mix "push" and migrations with your local development database. If you use "push" locally, and then try to migrate, Payload will throw a warning, telling you that these two methods are not meant to be used interchangeably.
desc: Database transactions are fully supported within Payload.
---
Database transactions allow your application to make a series of database changes in an all-or-nothing commit. Consider an HTTP request that creates a new **Order** and has an `afterChange` hook to update the stock count of related **Items**. If an error occurs when updating an **Item** and an HTTP error is returned to the user, you would not want the new **Order** to be persisted or any other items to be changed either. This kind of interaction with the database is handled seamlessly with transactions.
By default, Payload will use transactions for all operations, as long as it is supported by the configured database. Database changes are contained within all Payload operations and any errors thrown will result in all changes being rolled back without being committed. When transactions are not supported by the database, Payload will continue to operate as expected without them.
<Banner type="info">
<strong>Note:</strong>
<br />
MongoDB requires a connection to a replicaset in order to make use of transactions.
</Banner>
The initial request made to Payload will begin a new transaction and attach it to the `req.transactionID`. If you have a `hook` that interacts with the database, you can opt-in to using the same transaction by passing the `req` in the arguments. For example:
// because req.transactionID is assigned from Payload and passed through, my-slug will only persist if the entire request is successful
await req.payload.create({
req,
collection: 'my-slug',
data: {
some: 'data',
},
})
}
```
### Async Hooks with Transactions
Since Payload hooks can be async and be written to not await the result, it is possible to have an incorrect success response returned on a request that is rolled back. If you have a hook where you do not `await` the result, then you should **not** pass the `req.transactionID`.
// Should this call fail, it will not rollback other changes
// because the req (and its transationID) is not passed through
const safelyIgnoredAsync = req.payload.create({
collection: 'my-slug',
data: {
some: 'other data',
},
})
}
```
### Direct Transaction Access
When writing your own scripts or custom endpoints, you may wish to have direct control over transactions. This is useful for interacting with your database outside of Payload's local API.
The following functions can be used for managing transactions:
`payload.db.beginTransaction` - Starts a new session and returns a transaction ID for use in other Payload Local API calls.
`payload.db.commitTransaction` - Takes the identifier for the transaction, finalizes any changes.
`payload.db.rollbackTransaction` - Takes the identifier for the transaction, discards any changes.
desc: Payload uses NodeMailer to allow you to send emails smoothly from your app. Set up email functions such as password resets, order confirmations and more.
Payload comes ready to send your application's email. Whether you simply need built-in password reset
email to work or you want customers to get an order confirmation email, you're almost there. Payload makes use of
[NodeMailer](https://nodemailer.com) for email and won't get in your way for those already familiar.
For email to send from your Payload server, some configuration is required. The settings you provide will be set
in the `email` property object of your payload init call. Payload will make use of the transport that you have configured for it for things like reset password or verifying new user accounts and email send methods are available to you as well on your payload instance.
### Configuration
**Three ways to set it up**
1. **Default**: When email is not needed, a mock email handler will be created and used when nothing is provided. This is ideal for development environments and can be changed later when ready to [go to production](/docs/production/deployment).
1. **Recommended**: Set the `transportOptions` and Payload will do the set up for you.
1. **Advanced**: The `transport` object can be assigned a nodemailer transport object set up in your server scripts and given for Payload to use.
The following options are configurable in the `email` property object as part of the options object when calling payload.init().
| **`fromName`** \* | The name part of the From field that will be seen on the delivered email |
| **`fromAddress`** \* | The email address part of the From field that will be used when delivering email |
| **`transport`** | The NodeMailer transport object for when you want to do it yourself, not needed when transportOptions is set |
| **`transportOptions`** | An object that configures the transporter that Payload will create. For all the available options see the [NodeMailer documentation](https://nodemailer.com/smtp/) or see the examples below |
| **`logMockCredentials`** | If set to true and no transport/transportOptions, ethereal credentials will be logged to console on startup |
_\* An asterisk denotes that a property is required._
### Use SMTP
Simple Mail Transfer Protocol, also known as SMTP can be passed in using the `transportOptions` object on the `email` options.
**Example email part using SMTP:**
```ts
payload.init({
email: {
transportOptions: {
host: process.env.SMTP_HOST,
auth: {
user: process.env.SMTP_USER,
pass: process.env.SMTP_PASS,
},
port: 587,
secure: true, // use TLS
tls: {
// do not fail on invalid certs
rejectUnauthorized: false,
},
},
fromName: 'hello',
fromAddress: 'hello@example.com',
},
// ...
})
```
<Banner type="warning">
It is best practice to avoid saving credentials or API keys directly in your code, use
Many third party mail providers are available and offer benefits beyond basic SMTP. As an example your payload init could look this if you wanted to use SendGrid.com though the same approach would work for any other [NodeMailer transports](https://nodemailer.com/transports/) shown here or provided by another third party.
```ts
import payload from 'payload'
import nodemailerSendgrid from 'nodemailer-sendgrid'
To take full control of the mail transport you may wish to use `nodemailer.createTransport()` on your server and provide it to Payload init.
```ts
import payload from 'payload'
import nodemailer from 'nodemailer'
const payload = require('payload')
const nodemailer = require('nodemailer')
const transport = await nodemailer.createTransport({
host: process.env.SMTP_HOST,
port: 587,
auth: {
user: process.env.SMTP_USER,
pass: process.env.SMTP_PASS,
},
})
payload.init({
email: {
fromName: 'Admin',
fromAddress: 'admin@example.com',
transport,
},
// ...
})
```
### Sending Mail
With a working transport you can call it anywhere you have access to payload by calling `payload.sendEmail(message)`. The `message` will contain the `to`, `subject` and `email` or `text` for the email being sent. To see all available message configuration options see [NodeMailer](https://nodemailer.com/message).
### Mock transport
By default, Payload uses a mock implementation that only sends mail to the [ethereal](https://ethereal.email) capture service that will never reach a user's inbox. While in development you may wish to make use of the captured messages which is why the payload output during server output helpfully logs this out on the server console.
To see ethereal credentials, add `logMockCredentials: true` to the email options. This will cause them to be logged to console on startup.
```ts
payload.init({
email: {
fromName: 'Admin',
fromAddress: 'admin@example.com',
logMockCredentials: true, // Optional
},
// ...
})
```
**Console output when starting payload with a mock email instance and logMockCredentials: true**
```
[06:37:21] INFO (payload): Starting Payload...
[06:37:22] INFO (payload): Payload Demo Initialized

[06:37:23] INFO (payload): Mock email account password: VNdGcvDZeyEhtuPBqf
```
The mock email handler is used when payload is started with neither `transport` or `transportOptions` to know how to deliver email.
<Banner type="warning">
The randomly generated email account username and password will be different each time the Payload
server starts.
</Banner>
### Using multiple mail providers
Payload supports the use of a single transporter of email, but there is nothing stopping you from having more. Consider a use case where sending bulk email is handled differently than transactional email and could be done using a [hook](/docs/hooks/overview).

### Admin Config
In addition to the default [field admin config](/docs/fields/overview#admin-config), you can adjust the following properties:
| **`slug`** \* | Identifier for this block type. Will be saved on each block as the `blockType` property. |
| **`fields`** \* | Array of fields to be stored in this block. |
| **`labels`** | Customize the block labels that appear in the Admin dashboard. Auto-generated from slug if not defined. |

#### Auto-generated data per block
In addition to the field data that you define on each block, Payload will store two additional properties on each block:
**`blockType`**
The `blockType` is saved as the slug of the block that has been selected.
**`blockName`**
The Admin panel provides each block with a `blockName` field which optionally allows editors to label their blocks for better editability and readability.
### Example
`collections/ExampleCollection.js`
```ts
import { Block, CollectionConfig } from 'payload/types'
const QuoteBlock: Block = {
slug: 'Quote', // required
imageURL: 'https://google.com/path/to/image.jpg',
imageAltText: 'A nice thumbnail image to show what this block looks like',
As you build your own Block configs, you might want to store them in separate files but retain typing accordingly. To do so, you can import and use Payload's `Block` type:
| **`name`** \* | To be used as the property name when stored and retrieved from the database. [More](/docs/fields/overview#field-names) |
| **`label`** | Text used as a field label in the Admin panel or an object with keys for each language. |
| **`unique`** | Enforce that each entry in the Collection has a unique value for this field. |

| **`admin`** | Admin-specific configuration. See below for [more detail](#admin-config). |
| **`custom`** | Extension point for adding custom data (e.g. for plugins) |
_\* An asterisk denotes that a property is required._
### Admin Config
In addition to the default [field admin config](/docs/fields/overview#admin-config), you can adjust the following properties:
| **`editorOptions`** | Options that can be passed to the monaco editor, [view the full list](https://microsoft.github.io/monaco-editor/typedoc/variables/editor.EditorOptions.html). |
desc: Fields are the building blocks of Payload, find out how to add or remove a field, change field type, add hooks, define access control and validation.
Fields are the building blocks of Payload. Collections and Globals both use Fields to define the
shape of the data that they store. Payload offers a wide variety of field types - both simple and
complex.
</Banner>
Fields are defined as an array on Collections and Globals via the `fields` key. They define the shape of the data that will be stored as well as automatically construct the corresponding Admin UI.
The required `type` property on a field determines what values it can accept, how it is presented in the API, and how the field will be rendered in the admin interface.
**Simple collection with two fields:**
```ts
import { CollectionConfig } from 'payload/types'
export const Page: CollectionConfig = {
slug: 'pages',
fields: [
{
name: 'myField',
type: 'text', // highlight-line
},
{
name: 'otherField',
type: 'checkbox', // highlight-line
},
],
}
```
### Field types
- [Array](/docs/fields/array) - for repeating content, supports nested fields
- [Code](/docs/fields/code) - code editor that saves a string to the database
- [Collapsible](/docs/fields/collapsible) - used for admin layout, nest fields within a collapsible component
- [Date](/docs/fields/date) - date / time field that saves a timestamp
- [Email](/docs/fields/email) - validates the entry is a properly formatted email
- [Group](/docs/fields/group) - nest fields within an object
- [Number](/docs/fields/number) - field that enforces that its value be a number
- [Point](/docs/fields/point) - geometric coordinates for location data
- [Radio](/docs/fields/radio) - radio button group, allowing only one value to be selected
- [Relationship](/docs/fields/relationship) - assign relationships to other collections
- [Rich Text](/docs/fields/rich-text) - fully extensible Rich Text editor
- [Row](/docs/fields/row) - used for admin field layout, no effect on data shape
- [Select](/docs/fields/select) - dropdown / picklist style value selector
- [Tabs](/docs/fields/tabs) - used for admin layout, nest fields within tabs
- [Text](/docs/fields/text) - simple text input
- [Textarea](/docs/fields/textarea) - allows a bit larger of a text editor
- [Upload](/docs/fields/upload) - allows local file and image upload
- [UI](/docs/fields/ui) - inject your own custom components and do whatever you need
### Field-level hooks
One of the most powerful parts about Payload is its ability for you to define field-level hooks that can control the logic of your fields to a fine-grained level. for more information about how to define field hooks, [click here](/docs/hooks/overview#field-hooks).
### Field-level access control
In addition to being able to define access control on a document-level, you can define extremely granular permissions on a field by field level. For more information about field-level access control, [click here](/docs/access-control/overview#fields).
### Field names
Some fields use their `name` property as a unique identifier to store and retrieve from the database. `__v`, `salt`, and `hash` are all reserved field names which are sanitized from Payload's config and cannot be used.
### Validation
Field validation is enforced automatically based on the field type and other properties such as `required` or `min` and `max` value constraints on certain field types. This default behavior can be replaced by providing your own validate function for any field. It will be used on both the frontend and the backend, so it should not rely on any Node-specific packages. The validation function can be either synchronous or asynchronous and expects to return either `true` or a string error message to display in both API responses and within the Admin panel.
There are two arguments available to custom validation functions.
1. The value which is currently assigned to the field
2. An optional object with dynamic properties for more complex validation having the following:
return 'The customer number provided does not match any customers within our records.'
},
},
],
}
```
When supplying a field `validate` function, Payload will use yours in place of the default. To make use of the default field validation in your custom logic you can import, call and return the result as needed.
For example:
```ts
import { text } from 'payload/fields/validations'
const field: Field = {
name: 'notBad',
type: 'text',
validate: (val, args) => {
if (val === 'bad') {
return 'This cannot be "bad"'
}
// highlight-start
return text(val, args)
// highlight-end
},
}
```
### Customizable ID
Collections ID fields are generated automatically by default. An explicit `id` field can be declared in the `fields` array to override this behavior.
Users are then required to provide a custom ID value when creating a record through the Admin UI or API.
Valid ID types are `number` and `text`.
Example:
```ts
{
fields: [
{
name: 'id',
type: 'number',
},
],
}
```
### Admin config
In addition to each field's base configuration, you can define specific traits and properties for fields that only have effect on how they are rendered in the Admin panel. The following properties are available for all fields within the `admin` property:
| `condition` | You can programmatically show / hide fields based on what other fields are doing. [Click here](#conditional-logic) for more info. |
| `components` | All field components can be completely and easily swapped out for custom components that you define. [Click here](#custom-components) for more info. |
| `description` | Helper text to display with the field to provide more information for the editor user. [Click here](#description) for more info. |
| `position` | Specify if the field should be rendered in the sidebar by defining `position: 'sidebar'`. |
| `width` | Restrict the width of a field. you can pass any string-based value here, be it pixels, percentages, etc. This property is especially useful when fields are nested within a `Row` type where they can be organized horizontally. |
| `style` | Attach raw CSS style properties to the root DOM element of a field. |
| `className` | Attach a CSS class name to the root DOM element of a field. |
| `readOnly` | Setting a field to `readOnly` has no effect on the API whatsoever but disables the admin component's editability to prevent editors from modifying the field's value. |
| `disabled` | If a field is `disabled`, it is completely omitted from the Admin panel. |
| `disableBulkEdit` | Set `disableBulkEdit` to `true` to prevent fields from appearing in the select options when making edits for multiple documents. |
| `hidden` | Setting a field's `hidden` property on its `admin` config will transform it into a `hidden` input type. Its value will still submit with the Admin panel's requests, but the field itself will not be visible to editors. |
### Custom components
All Payload fields support the ability to swap in your own React components with ease. For more information, including examples, [click here](/docs/admin/components#fields).
### Conditional logic
You can show and hide fields based on what other fields are doing by utilizing conditional logic on a field by field basis. The `condition` property on a field's admin config accepts a function which takes three arguments:
- `data` - the entire document's data that is currently being edited
- `siblingData` - only the fields that are direct siblings to the field with the condition
- `{ user }` - the final argument is an object containing the currently authenticated user
The `condition` function should return a boolean that will control if the field should be displayed or not.
**Example:**
```ts
{
fields: [
{
name: 'enableGreeting',
type: 'checkbox',
defaultValue: false,
},
{
name: 'greeting',
type: 'text',
admin: {
// highlight-start
condition: (data, siblingData, { user }) => {
if (data.enableGreeting) {
return true
} else {

### Default values
Fields can be prefilled with starting values using the `defaultValue` property. This is used in the admin UI and also on the backend as API requests will be populated with missing or undefined field values. You can assign the defaultValue directly in the field configuration or supply a function for dynamic behavior. Values assigned during a create request on the server are added before validation occurs.
Functions are called with an optional argument object containing:
- `user` - the authenticated user object
- `locale` - the currently selected locale string
Here is an example of a defaultValue function that uses both:
You can use async defaultValue functions to fill fields with data from API requests.

### Description
A description can be configured in three ways.
- As a string
- As a function which returns a string
- As a React component
Functions are called with an optional argument object with the following shape, and React components are rendered with the following props:
- `path` - the path of the field
- `value` - the current value of the field
As shown above, you can simply provide a string that will show by the field, but there are use cases where you may want to create some dynamic feedback. By using a function or a component for the `description` property you can provide realtime feedback as the user interacts with the form.
**Function Example:**
```ts
{
fields: [
{
name: 'message',
type: 'text',
maxLength: 20,
admin: {
description: ({ path, value }) =>
`${typeof value === 'string' ? 20 - value.length : '20'} characters left (field: ${path})`,
},
},
]
}
```
This example will display the number of characters allowed as the user types.
**Component Example:**
```ts
{
fields: [
{
name: 'message',
type: 'text',
maxLength: 20,
admin: {
description:
({ path, value }) => (
<div>
Character count:
{' '}
{ value?.length || 0 }
(field: {path})
</div>
)
}
}
]
}
```
This component will count the number of characters entered, as well as display the path of the field.
### TypeScript
You can import the internal Payload `Field` type as well as other common field types as follows:
desc: The Radio field type allows for the selection of one value from a predefined set of possible values. Learn how to use Radio fields, see examples and options.
| **`name`** \* | To be used as the property name when stored and retrieved from the database. [More](/docs/fields/overview#field-names) |

Option values should be strings that do not contain hyphens or special characters due to GraphQL
enumeration naming constraints. Underscores are allowed. If you determine you need your option
values to be non-strings or contain special characters, they will be formatted accordingly before
being used as a GraphQL enum.
</Banner>
### Admin config
In addition to the default [field admin config](/docs/fields/overview#admin-config), the Radio Group field type allows for the specification of the following `admin` properties:
**`layout`**
The `layout` property allows for the radio group to be styled as a horizonally or vertically distributed list. The default value is `horizontal`.
| **`name`** \* | To be used as the property name when stored and retrieved from the database. [More](/docs/fields/overview#field-names) |
| **`relationTo`** \* | Provide one or many collection `slug`s to be able to assign relationships to. |
| **`filterOptions`** | A query to filter which options appear in the UI and validate against. [More](#filtering-relationship-options). |
| **`hasMany`** | Boolean when, if set to `true`, allows this field to have many relations instead of only one. |
| **`minRows`** | A number for the fewest allowed items during validation when a value is present. Used with `hasMany`. |
| **`maxRows`** | A number for the most allowed items during validation when a value is present. Used with `hasMany`. |
| **`maxDepth`** | Sets a number limit on iterations of related documents to populate when queried. [Depth](/docs/getting-started/concepts#depth) |

| **`unique`** | Enforce that each entry in the Collection has a unique value for this field. |
| **`validate`** | Provide a custom validation function that will be executed on both the Admin panel and the backend. [More](/docs/fields/overview#validation) |
| **`index`** | Build a an [index](/docs/database/overview) for this field to produce faster queries. Set this field to `true` if your users will perform queries on this field's data often. |
| **`saveToJWT`** | If this field is top-level and nested in a config supporting [Authentication](/docs/authentication/config), include its data in the user JWT. |
| **`hooks`** | Provide field-based hooks to control logic for this field. [More](/docs/fields/overview#field-level-hooks) |

The [Depth](/docs/getting-started/concepts#depth) parameter can be used to automatically populate
related documents that are returned by the API.
</Banner>
### Admin config
In addition to the default [field admin config](/docs/fields/overview#admin-config), the Relationship field type also
allows for the following admin-specific properties:
**`isSortable`**
Set to `true` if you'd like this field to be sortable within the Admin UI using drag and drop (only works when `hasMany`
is set to `true`).
**`allowCreate`**
Set to `false` if you'd like to disable the ability to create new documents from within the relationship field (hides
the "Add new" button in the admin UI).
**`sortOptions`**
The `sortOptions` property allows you to define a default sorting order for the options within a Relationship field's
dropdown. This can be particularly useful for ensuring that the most relevant options are presented first to the user.
You can specify `sortOptions` in two ways:
**As a string:**
Provide a string to define a global default sort field for all relationship field dropdowns across different
collections. You can prefix the field name with a minus symbol ("-") to sort in descending order.
Example:
```ts
sortOptions: 'fieldName',
```
This configuration will sort all relationship field dropdowns by `"fieldName"` in ascending order.
**As an object :**
Specify an object where keys are collection slugs and values are strings representing the field names to sort by. This
allows for different sorting fields for each collection's relationship dropdown.
Example:
```ts
sortOptions: {
"pages"
:
"fieldName1",
"posts"
:
"-fieldName2",
"categories"
:
"fieldName3"
}
```
In this configuration:
- Dropdowns related to `pages` will be sorted by `"fieldName1"` in ascending order.
- Dropdowns for `posts` will use `"fieldName2"` for sorting in descending order (noted by the "-" prefix).
- Dropdowns associated with `categories` will sort based on `"fieldName3"` in ascending order.
Note: If `sortOptions` is not defined, the default sorting behavior of the Relationship field dropdown will be used.
### Filtering relationship options
Options can be dynamically limited by supplying a [query constraint](/docs/queries/overview), which will be used both
for validating input and filtering available relationships in the UI.
The `filterOptions` property can either be a `Where` query, or a function returning `true` to not filter, `false` to
prevent all, or a `Where` query. When using a function, it will be
called with an argument object with the following properties:
desc: The Select field provides a dropdown-style interface for choosing options from a predefined list. Learn how to use Select fields, see examples and options.
| **`name`** \* | To be used as the property name when stored and retrieved from the database. [More](/docs/fields/overview#field-names) |
| **`options`** \* | Array of options to allow the field to store. Can either be an array of strings, or an array of objects containing a `label` string and a `value` string. |
| **`hasMany`** | Boolean when, if set to `true`, allows this field to have many selections instead of only one. |
| **`label`** | Text used as a field label in the Admin panel or an object with keys for each language. |
| **`unique`** | Enforce that each entry in the Collection has a unique value for this field. |
| **`validate`** | Provide a custom validation function that will be executed on both the Admin panel and the backend. [More](/docs/fields/overview#validation) |

**`placeholder`**
Set this property to define a placeholder string in the text input.
**`autoComplete`**
Set this property to a string that will be used for browser autocomplete.
**`rtl`**
Override the default text direction of the Admin panel for this field. Set to `true` to force right-to-left text direction.
desc: UI fields are purely presentational and allow developers to customize the admin panel to a very fine degree, including adding actions and other functions.
The UI (user interface) field gives you a ton of power to add your own React components directly
into the Admin panel, nested directly within your other fields. It has absolutely no effect on the
data of your documents. It is presentational-only.
</Banner>
This field is helpful if you need to build in custom functionality via React components within the Admin panel. Think of it as a way for you to "plug in" your own React components directly within your other fields, so you can provide your editors with new controls exactly where you want them to go.
With this field, you can also inject custom `Cell` components that appear as additional columns within collections' List views.
**Example uses:**
- Add a custom message or block of text within the body of an Edit view to describe the purpose of surrounding fields
- Add a "Refund" button to an Order's Edit view sidebar, which might make a fetch call to a custom `refund` endpoint
- Add a "view page" button into a Pages List view to give editors a shortcut to view a page on the frontend of the site
- Build a "clear cache" button or similar mechanism to manually clear caches of specific documents
| **`name`** \* | A unique identifier for this field. |
| **`label`** | Human-readable label for this UI field. |
| **`admin.components.Field`** \* | React component to be rendered for this field within the Edit view. [More](/docs/admin/components/#field-component) |
| **`admin.components.Cell`** | React component to be rendered as a Cell within collection List views. [More](/docs/admin/components/#field-component) |
| **`custom`** | Extension point for adding custom data (e.g. for plugins) |
