### What?
This PR adds a new `admin.disableRowTypes` config to `'join'` fields
which hides the `"Type"` column from the relationship table.
### Why?
While the collection type column _can be_ helpful for providing
information, it's not always necessary and can sometimes be redundant
when the field only has a singular relationTo. Hiding it can be helpful
by removing visual noise and providing editors the data directly.
### How?
By threading `admin.disableRowTypes` directly to the `getTableState`
function of the `RelationshipTable` component.
**With row types** (via `admin.disableRowTypes: false | undefined` OR
default for polymorphic):

**Without row types** (default for monomorphic):

Follow up to #11375.
When setting `filterOptions` on relationship or upload fields _that are
nested within a named field_, those options won't be applied to the
`Filter` component in the list view.
This is because of how we key the results when resolving `filterOptions`
on the server. Instead of using the field path as expected, we were
using the field name, causing a failed lookup on the front-end. This
also solves an issue where two fields with the same name would override
each other's `filterOptions`, since field names alone are not unique.
Unrelated: this PR also does some general housekeeping to e2e test
helpers.

Fixes#12975.
When editing autosave-enabled documents through the join field, the
document drawer closes unexpectedly on every autosave interval, making
it nearly impossible to use.
This is because as of #12842, the underlying relationship table
re-renders on every autosave event, remounting the drawer each time. The
fix is to lift the drawer out of table's rendering tree and into the
join field itself. This way all rows share the same drawer, whose
rendering lifecycle has been completely decoupled from the table's
state.
Note: this is very similar to how relationship fields achieve similar
functionality.
This PR also adds jsdocs to the `useDocumentDrawer` hook and strengthens
its types.

Supports grouping documents by specific fields within the list view.
For example, imagine having a "posts" collection with a "categories"
field. To report on each specific category, you'd traditionally filter
for each category, one at a time. This can be quite inefficient,
especially with large datasets.
Now, you can interact with all categories simultaneously, grouped by
distinct values.
Here is a simple demonstration:
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/0dcd19d2-e983-47e6-9ea2-cfdd2424d8b5
Enable on any collection by setting the `admin.groupBy` property:
```ts
import type { CollectionConfig } from 'payload'
const MyCollection: CollectionConfig = {
// ...
admin: {
groupBy: true
}
}
```
This is currently marked as beta to gather feedback while we reach full
stability, and to leave room for API changes and other modifications.
Use at your own risk.
Note: when using `groupBy`, bulk editing is done group-by-group. In the
future we may support cross-group bulk editing.
Dependent on #13102 (merged).

Monomorphic join fields were not using the `draft` argument when
fetching documents to display in the table. This change makes the join
field treatment of drafts consistent with the `relationship` type
fields.
Added e2e test to cover.

### What?
This PR introduces support for copy + pasting complex fields such as
Arrays and Blocks. These changes introduce a new `ClipboardAction`
component that houses logic for copy + pasting to and from the clipboard
to supported fields. I've scoped this PR to include only Blocks &
Arrays, however the structure of the components introduced lend
themselves to be easily extended to other field types. I've limited the
scope because there may be design & functional blockers that make it
unclear how to add actions to particular fields.
Supported fields:
- Arrays
([Demo](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/523916f6-77d0-43e2-9a11-a6a9d8c1b71c))
- Array Rows
([Demo](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/0cd01a1f-3e5e-4fea-ac83-8c0bba8d1aac))
- Blocks
([Demo](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/4c55ac2b-55f4-4793-9b53-309b2e090dd9))
- Block Rows
([Demo](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/1b4d2bea-981a-485b-a6c4-c59a77a50567))
Fields that may be supported in the future with minimal effort by
adopting the changes introduced here:
- Tabs
- Groups
- Collapsible
- Relationships
This PR also encompasses e2e tests that check both field and row-level
copy/pasting.
### Why?
To make it simpler and faster to copy complex fields over between
documents and rows within those docs.
### How?
Introduces a new `ClipboardAction` component with helper utilities to
aid in copy/pasting and validating field data.
Addresses #2977 & #10703
Notes:
- There seems to be an issue with Blocks & Arrays that contain RichText
fields where the RichText field dissappears from the dom upon replacing
form state. These fields are resurfaced after either saving the data or
dragging/dropping the row containing them.
- Copying a Row and then pasting it at the field-level will overwrite
the field to include only that one row. This is intended however can be
changed if requested.
- Clipboard permissions are required to use this feature. [See Clipboard
API caniuse](https://caniuse.com/async-clipboard).
#### TODO
- [x] ~~I forgot BlockReferences~~
- [x] ~~Fix tests failing due to new buttons causing locator conflicts~~
- [x] ~~Ensure deeply nested structures work~~
- [x] ~~Add missing translations~~

There are nearly a dozen independent implementations of the same modal
spread throughout the admin panel and various plugins. These modals are
used to confirm or cancel an action, such as deleting a document, bulk
publishing, etc. Each of these instances is nearly identical, leading to
unnecessary development efforts when creating them, inconsistent UI, and
duplicative stylesheets.
Everything is now standardized behind a new `ConfirmationModal`
component. This modal comes with a standard API that is flexible enough
to replace nearly every instance. This component has also been exported
for reuse.
Here is a basic example of how to use it:
```tsx
'use client'
import { ConfirmationModal, useModal } from '@payloadcms/ui'
import React, { Fragment } from 'react'
const modalSlug = 'my-confirmation-modal'
export function MyComponent() {
const { openModal } = useModal()
return (
<Fragment>
<button
onClick={() => {
openModal(modalSlug)
}}
type="button"
>
Do something
</button>
<ConfirmationModal
heading="Are you sure?"
body="Confirm or cancel before proceeding."
modalSlug={modalSlug}
onConfirm={({ closeConfirmationModal, setConfirming }) => {
// do something
setConfirming(false)
closeConfirmationModal()
}}
/>
</Fragment>
)
}
```
This feature allows you to specify `collection` for the join field as
array.
This can be useful for example to describe relationship linking like
this:
```ts
{
slug: 'folders',
fields: [
{
type: 'join',
on: 'folder',
collection: ['files', 'documents', 'folders'],
name: 'children',
},
{
type: 'relationship',
relationTo: 'folders',
name: 'folder',
},
],
},
{
slug: 'files',
upload: true,
fields: [
{
type: 'relationship',
relationTo: 'folders',
name: 'folder',
},
],
},
{
slug: 'documents',
fields: [
{
type: 'relationship',
relationTo: 'folders',
name: 'folder',
},
],
},
```
Documents and files can be placed to folders and folders themselves can
be nested to other folders (root folders just have `folder` as `null`).
Output type of `Folder`:
```ts
export interface Folder {
id: string;
children?: {
docs?:
| (
| {
relationTo?: 'files';
value: string | File;
}
| {
relationTo?: 'documents';
value: string | Document;
}
| {
relationTo?: 'folders';
value: string | Folder;
}
)[]
| null;
hasNextPage?: boolean | null;
} | null;
folder?: (string | null) | Folder;
updatedAt: string;
createdAt: string;
}
```
While you could instead have many join fields (for example
`childrenFolders`, `childrenFiles`) etc - this doesn't allow you to
sort/filter and paginate things across many collections, which isn't
trivial. With SQL we use `UNION ALL` query to achieve that.

### What?
This PR fixes an issue where the `join` field table was not respecting
the locale selected in the admin ui localizer.
This also introduces an e2e test to the existing suite to catch this
issue.
### Why?
To properly render `join` field table data according to chosen and
configured locales.
### How?
Threading `req.locale` through to the `payload.find` call in
`buildTableState`.
Fixes#11134

### What?
Assuming you have a hook in your collection that is looking for certain
conditions to be met related to the join field. The way you would
prevent it is to throw a `new ValidationError()` with errors containing
the path of the field. Previously, the error message for the field would
not show in the admin UI at all.
### Why?
Users need to be able to see any custom error messages for joins field
in the UI so they can address the issue.
### How?
Adds an error class and display the FieldError in the Join field in the
UI component.
Previously, data created by other tests was also leaking into unrelated tests, causing them to fail. The new reset-db-between-tests logic added by this PR fixes this.
Additionally, this increases playwright timeouts for CI, and adds a specific timeout override for opening a drawer, as it was incredibly slow in CI

### What?
This PR fixes an issue where deleting an entry in a `Join` via the
`Drawer` accessed through the `DrawerLink` would not update the table
until the page was refreshed.
### Why?
For a better, more reactive, deletion experience for end-users. Ideally,
the deletion is reflected in the table right away.
### How?
By passing an `onDrawerDelete` function to the `DrawerLink` which simply
filters out the existing doc according to an id.

### What?
The join field had a limitation imposed that prevents it from targeting
polymorphic relationship fields. With this change we can support any
relationship fields.
### Why?
Improves the functionality of join field.
### How?
Extended the database adapters and removed the config sanitization that
would throw an error when polymorphic relationships were used.
Fixes #
Add the ability to specify which columns should appear in the
relationship table of a join fields
The new property is in the Join field `admin.defaultColumns` and can be
set to an array of strings containing the field names in the desired
order.
In PR #9930 we added `overrideAccess: false` to the find operation and
failed to pass the user. This caused
https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/9974 where any access
control causes the edit view to error.
The fix was to pass the user through.
This change also adds Join Field e2e tests to the CI pipeline which was
previously missing and would have caught the error.
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.

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?
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
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.
## 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.
