### Multi Tenant Plugin
This PR adds a `@payloadcms/plugin-multi-tenant` package. The goal is to
consolidate a source of truth for multi-tenancy. Currently we are
maintaining different implementations for clients, users in discord and
our examples repo. When updates or new paradigms arise we need to
communicate this with everyone and update code examples which is hard to
maintain.
### What does it do?
- adds a tenant selector to the sidebar, above the nav links
- adds a hidden tenant field to every collection that you specify
- adds an array field to your users collection, allowing you to assign
users to tenants
- by default combines the access control (to enabled collections) that
you define, with access control based on the tenants assigned to user on
the request
- by default adds a baseListFilter that filters the documents shown in
the list view with the selected tenant in the admin panel
### What does it not do?
- it does not implement multi-tenancy for your frontend. You will need
to query data for specific tenants to build your website/application
- it does not add a tenants collection, you **NEED** to add a tenants
collection, where you can define what types of fields you would like on
it
### The plugin config
Most of the options listed below are _optional_, but it is easier to
just lay out all of the configuration options.
**TS Type**
```ts
type MultiTenantPluginConfig<ConfigTypes = unknown> = {
/**
* After a tenant is deleted, the plugin will attempt to clean up related documents
* - removing documents with the tenant ID
* - removing the tenant from users
*
* @default true
*/
cleanupAfterTenantDelete?: boolean
/**
* Automatically
*/
collections: {
[key in CollectionSlug]?: {
/**
* Set to `true` if you want the collection to behave as a global
*
* @default false
*/
isGlobal?: boolean
/**
* Set to `false` if you want to manually apply the baseListFilter
*
* @default true
*/
useBaseListFilter?: boolean
/**
* Set to `false` if you want to handle collection access manually without the multi-tenant constraints applied
*
* @default true
*/
useTenantAccess?: boolean
}
}
/**
* Enables debug mode
* - Makes the tenant field visible in the admin UI within applicable collections
*
* @default false
*/
debug?: boolean
/**
* Enables the multi-tenant plugin
*
* @default true
*/
enabled?: boolean
/**
* Field configuration for the field added to all tenant enabled collections
*/
tenantField?: {
access?: RelationshipField['access']
/**
* The name of the field added to all tenant enabled collections
*
* @default 'tenant'
*/
name?: string
}
/**
* Field configuration for the field added to the users collection
*
* If `includeDefaultField` is `false`, you must include the field on your users collection manually
* This is useful if you want to customize the field or place the field in a specific location
*/
tenantsArrayField?:
| {
/**
* Access configuration for the array field
*/
arrayFieldAccess?: ArrayField['access']
/**
* When `includeDefaultField` is `true`, the field will be added to the users collection automatically
*/
includeDefaultField?: true
/**
* Additional fields to include on the tenants array field
*/
rowFields?: Field[]
/**
* Access configuration for the tenant field
*/
tenantFieldAccess?: RelationshipField['access']
}
| {
arrayFieldAccess?: never
/**
* When `includeDefaultField` is `false`, you must include the field on your users collection manually
*/
includeDefaultField?: false
rowFields?: never
tenantFieldAccess?: never
}
/**
* The slug for the tenant collection
*
* @default 'tenants'
*/
tenantsSlug?: string
/**
* Function that determines if a user has access to _all_ tenants
*
* Useful for super-admin type users
*/
userHasAccessToAllTenants?: (
user: ConfigTypes extends { user: User } ? ConfigTypes['user'] : User,
) => boolean
}
```
**Example usage**
```ts
import type { Config } from './payload-types'
import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
export default buildConfig({
plugins: [
multiTenantPlugin<Config>({
collections: {
pages: {},
},
userHasAccessToAllTenants: (user) => isSuperAdmin(user),
}),
],
})
```
### How to configure Collections as Globals for multi-tenant
When using multi-tenant, globals need to actually be configured as
collections so the content can be specific per tenant.
To do that, you can mark a collection with `isGlobal` and it will behave
like a global and users will not see the list view.
```ts
multiTenantPlugin({
collections: {
navigation: {
isGlobal: true,
},
},
})
```

- Build faster, never hit a roadblock
Quickstart
Before beginning to work with Payload, make sure you have all of the required software.
pnpx create-payload-app@latest
If you're new to Payload, you should start with the website template (pnpx create-payload-app@latest -t website). It shows how to do everything - including custom Rich Text blocks, on-demand revalidation, live preview, and more. It comes with a frontend built with Tailwind all in one /app folder.
One-click templates
Jumpstart your next project by starting with a pre-made template. These are production-ready, end-to-end solutions designed to get you to market as fast as possible.
🌐 Website
Build any kind of website, blog, or portfolio from small to enterprise. Comes with a fully functional front-end built with RSCs and Tailwind.
We're constantly adding more templates to our Templates Directory. If you maintain your own template, consider adding the payload-template topic to your GitHub repository for others to find.
✨ Features
- Completely free and open-source
- Next.js native, built to run inside your
/appfolder - Use server components to extend Payload UI
- Query your database directly in server components, no need for REST / GraphQL
- Fully TypeScript with automatic types for your data
- Auth out of the box
- Versions and drafts
- Localization
- Block-based layout builder
- Customizable React admin
- Lexical rich text editor
- Conditional field logic
- Extremely granular Access Control
- Document and field-level hooks for every action Payload provides
- Intensely fast API
- Highly secure thanks to HTTP-only cookies, CSRF protection, and more

📚 Examples
The Examples Directory 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 use create-payload-app to create a project from one:
npx create-payload-app --example example_name
You can see more examples at:
🔌 Plugins
Payload is highly extensible and allows you to install or distribute plugins that add or remove functionality. There are both officially-supported and community-supported plugins available. If you maintain your own plugin, consider adding the payload-plugin topic to your GitHub repository for others to find.
