## Summary
- Adds an `objectRecordCounts` query on the `/metadata` GraphQL endpoint
that returns approximate record counts for all objects in the workspace
- Uses PostgreSQL's `pg_class.reltuples` catalog stats — a single
instant query instead of N `COUNT(*)` table scans
- Replaces the previous `CombinedFindManyRecords` approach which hit the
server's 20 root resolver limit and silently showed 0 for all counts on
the settings Data Model page
### Server
- `ObjectRecordCountDTO` — GraphQL type with `objectNamePlural` and
`totalCount`
- `ObjectRecordCountService` — reads `pg_class` catalog for the
workspace schema
- Query added to `ObjectMetadataResolver` with `@MetadataResolver()` +
`NoPermissionGuard`
### Frontend
- `OBJECT_RECORD_COUNTS` query added to
`object-metadata/graphql/queries.ts`
- `useCombinedGetTotalCount` simplified to a zero-argument hook using
the new query
- `SettingsObjectTable` simplified to a single hook call

## Overview
This PR implements **generic many-to-many relation support** through
junction tables (also known as associative entities or join tables).
This replaces the need for hardcoded taskTarget/noteTarget logic and
provides a flexible foundation for modeling complex entity
relationships.
## Architecture
### Data Model
Many-to-many relationships are implemented using a **junction object
pattern**:
```
┌─────────┐ ┌──────────────────┐ ┌─────────┐
│ Pet │──────>│ PetRocket │<──────│ Rocket │
│ │ 1:N │ (junction) │ N:1 │ │
│ rockets ├───────┤ pet : Pet ├───────┤ │
└─────────┘ │ rocket : Rocket │ └─────────┘
└──────────────────┘
```
The junction object (PetRocket) has:
- A `MANY_TO_ONE` relation to **Pet** (the source)
- A `MANY_TO_ONE` relation to **Rocket** (the target)
The source object (Pet) has a `ONE_TO_MANY` relation pointing to the
junction, with **field settings** that specify which target field to
follow.
### Field Settings Schema
Junction configuration is stored in `FieldMetadataRelationSettings`:
```typescript
{
relationType: "ONE_TO_MANY",
// Points to the target field on the junction object
junctionTargetFieldId?: string; // For regular relations
junctionTargetMorphId?: string; // For polymorphic relations
}
```
**Two configuration modes:**
1. **`junctionTargetFieldId`** - References a specific `RELATION` field
on the junction
2. **`junctionTargetMorphId`** - References a `morphId` group for
polymorphic targets (e.g., link to Person OR Company)
### GraphQL Query Generation
When a junction relation is detected, the GraphQL fields are generated
to fetch the nested target:
```graphql
query GetPetWithRockets {
pet(id: "...") {
rockets { # ONE_TO_MANY to junction
id
rocket { # Target field on junction
id
name
__typename
}
}
}
}
```
For polymorphic junction targets:
```graphql
caretakerPerson { id, name }
caretakerCompany { id, name }
```
## Frontend Architecture
### Display Flow
1. **Detection**: `hasJunctionConfig()` checks if field has junction
settings
2. **Config Resolution**: `getJunctionConfig()` resolves junction object
metadata and target fields
3. **Record Extraction**: `extractTargetRecordsFromJunction()` extracts
target records from junction records
4. **Rendering**: Target records displayed as chips (not junction
records)
### Edit Flow
1. **Picker Opening**: Initializes the multi-record picker with:
- Searchable object types (derived from junction target fields)
- Pre-selected items (extracted from existing junction records)
2. **Selection Handling**: Manages create/delete of junction records:
- **Select**: Creates new junction record with source + target IDs
- **Deselect**: Finds and deletes the junction record
- **Optimistic Updates**: Manually updates Recoil store before API call
### Key Trade-offs
| Decision | Trade-off |
|----------|-----------|
| Junction records managed manually | More control over optimistic
updates, but requires manual cache management |
| Settings stored per-field | Flexible (same junction can power
different views), but requires UI to configure |
| Polymorphic via morphId groups | Supports N target types, but adds
query complexity |
| Feature flag gated | Safe rollout, but requires flag management |
## Backend Changes
- **Validation**: Junction target field must exist and be a valid
`MANY_TO_ONE` relation
- **Settings**: Extended `FieldMetadataRelationSettings` type with
junction fields
- **Dev Seeder**: Added sample junction objects (PetRocket,
EmploymentHistory, PetCareAgreement) for testing
## How to Test
1. Enable the `IS_JUNCTION_RELATIONS_ENABLED` feature flag
2. Create objects with junction pattern (Pet → PetRocket → Rocket)
3. Configure the junction target in field settings (advanced mode)
4. Verify:
- Display shows target objects (Rockets), not junction records
(PetRockets)
- Picker allows selecting/deselecting targets
- Changes persist correctly

# Introduction
This has been fixed on main already 1 hour ago, this PR now only passes
the field application id instead of the object applicationId that could
be different for example when creating a custom field on a standard
object
For the moment not introducing any logic around application integrity
directly and still relying on the isCustom and standardId definition
This will have to be refactored once we deprecate the standardId
resolves#14190
added refreshCoreViews() call after object creation to immediately
update core views state, ensuring new objects appear in the navigation
drawer without requiring a refresh

# Introduction
- Implementing the delete one for the new object metadata service v2.
- Handling relation fields and fields in the first place to finally
remove the object
- puting back updatedAt and createdAt in flat metadatas
- duplicate criteria addition for flat object
- removing datasource id from object metadata dto
- Enable update to unique for composite field with defaultValue
different from default defaultValue on subfield not included in unique
constraint
- Enable update to unique for standard field + Disable update to
non-unique for standard index
- Fix typo
Fixes https://github.com/twentyhq/core-team-issues/issues/1360
Context :
- IndexFieldMetadata was no longer available on 'objects' gql query
([since this PR](https://github.com/twentyhq/twenty/pull/12785)). Then,
unicity checks on import do not work anymore.
Fix :
- Add a dataloader logic in indexFieldMetadata
- Add extra check in unicity hook on import
In this PR:
## Improve recompute metadata cache performance. We are aiming for
~100ms
Deleting relationMetadata table and FKs pointing on it
Fetching indexMetadata and indexFieldMetadata in a separate query as
typeorm is suboptimizing
## Remove caching lock
As recomputing the metadata cache is lighter, we try to stop preventing
multiple concurrent computations. This also simplifies interfaces
## Introduce self recovery mecanisms to recompute cache automatically if
corrupted
Aka getFreshObjectMetadataMaps
## custom object resolver performance improvement: 1sec to 200ms
Double check queries and indexes used while creating a custom object
Remove the queries to db to use the cached objectMetadataMap
## reduce objectMetadataMaps to 500kb
<img width="222" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/2370dc80-49b6-4b63-8d5e-30c5ebdaa062"
/>
We used to stored 3 fieldMetadataMaps (byId, byName, byJoinColumnName).
While this is great for devXP, this is not great for performances.
Using the same mecanisme as for objectMetadataMap: we only keep byIdMap
and introduce two otherMaps to idByName, idByJoinColumnName to make the
bridge
## Add dataloader on IndexMetadata (aka indexMetadataList in the API)
## Improve field resolver performances too
## Deprecate ClientConfig
# What
Fully deprecate old relations because we have one bug tied to it and it
make the codebase complex
# How I've made this PR:
1. remove metadata datasource (we only keep 'core') => this was causing
extra complexity in the refactor + flaky reset
2. merge dev and demo datasets => as I needed to update the tests which
is very painful, I don't want to do it twice
3. remove all code tied to RELATION_METADATA /
relation-metadata.resolver, or anything tied to the old relation system
4. Remove ONE_TO_ONE and MANY_TO_MANY that are not supported
5. fix impacts on the different areas : see functional testing below
# Functional testing
## Functional testing from the front-end:
1. Database Reset ✅
2. Sign In ✅
3. Workspace sign-up ✅
5. Browsing table / kanban / show ✅
6. Assigning a record in a one to many / in a many to one ✅
7. Deleting a record involved in a relation ✅ => broken but not tied to
this PR
8. "Add new" from relation picker ✅ => broken but not tied to this PR
9. Creating a Task / Note, Updating a Task / Note relations, Deleting a
Task / Note (from table, show page, right drawer) ✅ => broken but not
tied to this PR
10. creating a relation from settings (custom / standard x oneToMany /
manyToOne) ✅
11. updating a relation from settings should not be possible ✅
12. deleting a relation from settings (custom / standard x oneToMany /
manyToOne) ✅
13. Make sure timeline activity still work (relation were involved
there), espacially with Task / Note => to be double checked ✅ => Cannot
convert undefined or null to object
14. Workspace deletion / User deletion ✅
15. CSV Import should keep working ✅
16. Permissions: I have tested without permissions V2 as it's still hard
to test v2 work and it's not in prod yet ✅
17. Workflows global test ✅
## From the API:
1. Review open-api documentation (REST) ✅
2. Make sure REST Api are still able to fetch relations ==> won't do, we
have a coupling Get/Update/Create there, this requires refactoring
3. Make sure REST Api is still able to update / remove relation => won't
do same
## Automated tests
1. lint + typescript ✅
2. front unit tests: ✅
3. server unit tests 2 ✅
4. front stories: ✅
5. server integration: ✅
6. chromatic check : expected 0
7. e2e check : expected no more that current failures
## Remove // Todos
1. All are captured by functional tests above, nothing additional to do
## (Un)related regressions
1. Table loading state is not working anymore, we see the empty state
before table content
2. Filtering by Creator Tim Ap return empty results
3. Not possible to add Tasks / Notes / Files from show page
# Result
## New seeds that can be easily extended

## -5k lines of code
## No more 'metadata' dataSource (we only have 'core)
## No more relationMetadata (I haven't drop the table yet it's not
referenced in the code anymore)
## We are ready to fix the 6 months lag between current API results and
our mocked tests
## No more bug on relation creation / deletion

Fixes#10793
This PR is a work in progress.
**Still left to fix:**
- [x] When disabling synchronization of labels / api names, the edited
labels should be set to the English version. Currently the client just
send the localized versions together with the `isLabelSyncedWithName`
change. Could be an easy fix.
- [ ] Sometimes flipping the switch don't trigger the update function,
may be a regression as it seems to affect the custom objects too.
- [ ] There is a frontend problem where the labels inputs don't reflect
the changes made. When enabling back synchronisation after editing
labels, they are correctly back to their base values (backend,
navigation breadcrumb, etc) but the label inputs still have the old
values (switching pages will put them back to normal). I suspect this
could be linked to the above problem.
- [ ] API names are still displayed for standard objects per (kept them
for debugging, trivial fix)
- [ ] `SettingsDataModelObjectAboutForm` have a `disableEdition`
parameter which is now used only for a few fields, not sure if it's
worth keeping because it's a bit misleading since it doesn't "disable"
much?
- [ ] I don't know what these do, but I have seen "Remote" object types.
Not sure if they work with my patch or not (I don't know how to test
them)
- [ ] Make it work with metadata synchronisation
**What should work:**
- Disabling synchronization of standard objects should work, label
inputs should no longer be disabled
- Modifying labels should work
- Enabling back synchronization should reset back the labels to the base
value and disable the label inputs again (minus the mentioned display
bug)
- The synchronisation switch should still work as expected for custom
objects
- Creating custom objects should still work (it uses the same form)

## Context
All objects have '...duplicates' resolver but only companies and people
have duplicate criteria (hard coded constant).
Gql schema and resolver should be created only if duplicate criteria
exist.
## Solution
- Add a new @WorkspaceDuplicateCriteria decorator at object level,
defining duplicate criteria for given object.
- Add a new duplicate criteria field in ObjectMetadata table
- Update schema and resolver building logic
- Update front requests for duplicate check (only for object with
criteria defined)
closes https://github.com/twentyhq/twenty/issues/9828
Fixes#9827
Also uncovered a conflict with `@objectType('Relation')` and
`@objectType('relation)`
I don't want to address it in this PR so I will create a followup issue
when we close this but I think there's a confusion between
Relation/RelationMetadata, it's unclear what is what

## Context
The recent addition of object renaming introduced issues with enum
names. Enum names should follow the pattern
`${schemaName}.${tableName}_${columnName}_enum`. To address this, and to
allow users to customize the API name (which is included in the enum
name, columnName), this PR implements behavior similar to object
renaming by introducing a `isLabelSyncedWithName` boolean.

In this PR:
1. Refactor guards to avoid duplicated queries: WorkspaceAuthGuard and
UserAuthGuard only check for existence of workspace and user in the
request without querying the database
In this PR
1. Enable deletion of relation fields in the product and via the api
(migration part was missing in the api)
3. Change wording, only use "deactivate" and "delete" everywhere (and
not a mix of the two + "disable", "erase")
Fixes#5276.
Updates were not triggering a cache version incrementation because they
do not trigger migrations while that is where the caching version logic
was.
We have decided to move the cache incrementation logic to the services.
New strategy:
- add settings field on FieldMetadata. Contains a boolean isIdField and
for numbers, a precision
- if idField, the graphql scalar returned will be a GraphQL id. This
will allow the app to work even for ids that are not uuid
- remove globals dateScalar and numberScalar modes. These were not used
- set limit as Integer
- check manually in query runner mutations that we send a valid id
Todo left:
- remove WorkspaceBuildSchemaOptions since this is not used anymore.
Will do in another PR

We have recently discovered that we were using ID type in place of UUID
type in many place in the code.
We have merged #4895 but this introduced bugs as we forgot to replace it
everywhere
When writing to the normalized cache (record), it's crucial to use _refs
for relationships to avoid many problems. Essentially, we only deal with
level 0 and generate all fields to be comfortable with their defaults.
When writing in queries (which should be very rare, the only cases are
prefetch and the case of activities due to the nested query; I've
reduced this to a single file for activities
usePrepareFindManyActivitiesQuery 🙂), it's important to use queryFields
to avoid bugs. I've implemented them on the side of query generation and
record generation.
When doing an updateOne / createOne, etc., it's necessary to distinguish
between optimistic writing (which we actually want to do with _refs) and
the server response without refs. This allows for a clean write in the
optimistic cache without worrying about nesting (as the first point).
To simplify the whole activities part, write to the normalized cache
first. Then, base queries on it in an idempotent manner. This way,
there's no need to worry about the current page or action. The
normalized cache is up-to-date, so I update the queries. Same idea as
for optimisticEffects, actually.
Finally, I've triggered optimisticEffects rather than the manual update
of many queries.
