-## Next.js Conflict with Local API
-
-There is a known issue when using the Local API with Next.js version `13.4.13` and higher. Next.js executes within a
-separate child process, and Payload has not been initialized yet in these instances. That means that unless you
-explicitly initialize Payload within your operation, it will not be running and return no data / an empty object.
-
-As a workaround, we recommend leveraging the following pattern to determine and ensure Payload is initialized:
-
-```
-import dotenv from 'dotenv'
-import path from 'path'
-import type { Payload } from 'payload'
-import payload from 'payload'
-import type { InitOptions } from 'payload/config'
-import { seed as seedData } from './seed'
-
-dotenv.config({
-  path: path.resolve(__dirname, '../.env'),
-})
-
-let cached = (global as any).payload
-
-if (!cached) {
-  cached = (global as any).payload = { client: null, promise: null }
-}
-
-interface Args {
-  initOptions?: Partial<InitOptions>
-  seed?: boolean
-}
-
-export const getPayloadClient = async ({ initOptions, seed }: Args = {}): Promise<Payload> => {
-  if (!process.env.DATABASE_URI) {
-    throw new Error('DATABASE_URI environment variable is missing')
-  }
-  if (!process.env.PAYLOAD_SECRET) {
-    throw new Error('PAYLOAD_SECRET environment variable is missing')
-  }
-  if (cached.client) {
-    return cached.client
-  }
-  if (!cached.promise) {
-    cached.promise = payload.init({
-      mongoURL: process.env.DATABASE_URI,
-      secret: process.env.PAYLOAD_SECRET,
-      local: initOptions?.express ? false : true,
-      ...(initOptions || {}),
-    })
-  }
-  try {
-    process.env.PAYLOAD_DROP_DATABASE = seed ? 'true' : 'false'
-    cached.client = await cached.promise
-    if (seed) {
-      payload.logger.info('---- SEEDING DATABASE ----')
-      await seedData(payload)
-    }
-  } catch (e: unknown) {
-    cached.promise = null
-    throw e
-  }
-  return cached.client
-}

-## Example Script using Local API
-
-The Local API is especially useful for running scripts
-
-```ts
-import payload from 'payload'
-import path from 'path'
-import dotenv from 'dotenv'
-
-dotenv.config({
-  path: path.resolve(__dirname, '../.env'),
-})
-
-const { PAYLOAD_SECRET } = process.env
-
-const doAction = async (): Promise<void> => {
-  await payload.init({
-    secret: PAYLOAD_SECRET,
-    local: true, // Enables local mode, doesn't spin up a server or frontend
-  })
-
-  // Perform any Local API operations here
-  await payload.find({
-    collection: 'posts',
-    // where: {} // optional
-  })
-
-  await payload.create({
-    collection: 'posts',
-    data: {},
-  })
-}
-
-doAction()
-```

 ## TypeScript
 
 Local API calls will automatically infer your [generated types](/docs/typescript/generating-types).
