## What & why
Lets users resize the columns of a Kanban (record board) view. Requested
by a user; the design avoids the "ragged board" problem by making the
width a **single shared value**.
## Behaviour
- A drag handle appears on the right edge of every column header.
- Because all columns read **one** width value, dragging any handle
resizes **every** column together — they can never end up mismatched.
- Width is clamped between **150px** and **400px** (default **200px**).
- The width is **persisted per view** and restored on reload.
## Approach
**Backend** — a new nullable `View.kanbanColumnWidth` field, threaded
through the existing view-level setting pattern (the same one
`kanbanAggregateOperation` / `shouldHideEmptyGroups` use), so it gets
create/update/manifest/override support for free:
- entity column + `ViewOverrides` + `@WasIntroducedInUpgrade`
- `CreateViewInput` / `UpdateViewInput` (`Int`, `@Min(150)`/`@Max(400)`)
+ `ViewDTO`
- flat-view editable properties, entity-properties config, compare-type,
standard-view + manifest converters
- a fast instance command adding the `core.view` column
**Frontend** — the value hydrates into a view-scoped atom and drives a
single CSS variable set on the board container, which both column
headers and bodies read. Live dragging only writes that CSS variable (no
per-move React re-render); the final width is committed to the atom and
persisted via `updateView` on pointer-up.
## Nullability / defaults
`kanbanColumnWidth` is nullable — `null` means "never resized" and the
UI falls back to the 200px default, so existing rows need no backfill.
## Validation
- `nx typecheck twenty-server` ✅ and `nx typecheck twenty-front` ✅
- `nx lint:diff-with-main twenty-server` ✅; frontend lint fixes applied
(split constants to one-per-file, removed `useRef`-for-state in favour
of `useState`).
- Draft pending a final green CI run (the dev container reclaimed
`node_modules` mid-session; re-running locally).
## Test plan
- [ ] Drag a kanban column edge → all columns resize together, clamped
150–400px
- [ ] Reload → width persists for that view; other views unaffected
- [ ] A view that was never resized still renders at 200px

## Summary
The `fromViewManifestToUniversalFlatView` converter hardcoded five view
fields to `null` instead of reading them from the manifest:
- `mainGroupByFieldMetadataUniversalIdentifier`
- `kanbanAggregateOperation`
- `kanbanAggregateOperationFieldMetadataUniversalIdentifier`
- `calendarLayout`
- `calendarFieldMetadataUniversalIdentifier`
As a result **any** Kanban view in an app manifest is rejected by
`validateFlatViewCreation` with `"Kanban view must have a main group by
field"`, and any Calendar view would trip the `view.entity.ts` check
constraint requiring `calendarLayout` + `calendarFieldMetadataId` to be
non-null. Discovered while trying to install
[`twenty-crm-meeting-baas`](https://github.com/Meeting-BaaS/twenty-crm-meeting-baas)
which ships a Kanban view.
## Changes
- **Server converter**: read all five fields from the manifest (with `??
null` fallback).
- **`ViewManifest` type** (`twenty-shared`): add the five fields so SDK
users can set them type-safely.
- **Move `ViewCalendarLayout`** from `twenty-server` to `twenty-shared`
so the manifest type can reference it. Seven import sites updated; the
front-end imports via generated GraphQL types and is unaffected.
- **Unit tests**: extend
`from-view-manifest-to-universal-flat-view.util.spec.ts` with
preservation + null-default cases for both Kanban and Calendar (5 tests
total).
- **Regression coverage**: add a Kanban view
(`post-cards-by-status.view.ts`) to the `rich-app` fixture grouped by
the existing `status` SELECT field. The existing
`applications-install-delete-reinstall` e2e test now exercises the
Kanban path end-to-end — a future regression here would fail CI.
Note: `expected-manifest.ts` and the `views.length` assertion in
`manifest.tests.ts` were updated to reflect the new fixture view.
## Test plan
- [x] `nx test twenty-server --
from-view-manifest-to-universal-flat-view` → 5/5 pass
- [x] `nx typecheck twenty-shared` / `twenty-sdk` / `twenty-server` → no
new errors (one pre-existing unrelated error in
`admin-panel.module-factory.ts`)
- [x] `nx lint twenty-shared` / `twenty-sdk` → clean
- [x] Manual install of the Meeting BaaS app on a dev workspace succeeds
with the Kanban view after this fix
- [ ] CI: SDK e2e `applications-install-delete-reinstall` passes against
the new fixture view
- [ ] CI: integration test `calendar-field-deactivation-deletes-views`
still passes after the enum move

In this PR (1/3)
- introduce view.mainGroupByFieldMetadataId as the new reference
determining which fieldMetadataId is used in a grouped view, in order to
deprecate viewGroup.fieldMetadataId which creates inconsistencies.
view.mainGroupByFieldMetadataId is now filled at every view creation,
though not in use yet.
- Introduce a command to backfill view.mainGroupByFieldMetadataId for
existing views + delete all viewGroup.fieldMetadataId with a
fieldMetadataId that is not view.mainGroupByFieldMetadataId. (It should
concern 37 active workspaces)
- Temporarily disable the option to change a grouped view's
fieldMetadataId as for now it creates inconsistencies. This feature can
be reintroduced when we have done the full migration.
In a next PR
- (2/3) use view.mainGroupByFieldMetadataId instead of
viewGroup.fieldMetadataId. In FE we may keep viewGroup.fieldMetadataId
as a state (TBD). View groups will now be created / deleted as a side
effect of view's mainGroupByFieldMetadataId update.
- (3/3) remove viewGroup.fieldMetadataId

## Overview
This PR strengthens our permission system by introducing more granular
role-based access control across the platform.
## Changes
### New Permissions Added
- **Applications** - Control who can install and manage applications
- **Layouts** - Control who can customize page layouts and UI structure
- **AI** - Control access to AI features and agents
- **Upload File** - Separate permission for file uploads
- **Download File** - Separate permission for file downloads (frontend
visibility)
### Security Enhancements
- Implemented whitelist-based validation for workspace field updates
- Added explicit permission guards to core entity resolvers
- Enhanced ESLint rule to enforce permission checks on all mutations
- Created `CustomPermissionGuard` and `NoPermissionGuard` for better
code documentation
### Affected Components
- Core entity resolvers: webhooks, files, domains, applications,
layouts, postgres credentials
- Workspace update mutations now use whitelist validation
- Settings UI updated with new permission controls
### Developer Experience
- ESLint now catches missing permission guards during development
- Explicit guard markers make permission requirements clear in code
review
- Comprehensive test coverage for new permission logic
## Testing
- ✅ All TypeScript type checks pass
- ✅ ESLint validation passes
- ✅ New permission guards properly enforced
- ✅ Frontend UI displays new permissions correctly
## Migration Notes
Existing workspaces will need to assign the new permissions to roles as
needed. By default, all new permissions are set to `false` for non-admin
roles.
## Context
- All flatEntity should extend SyncableEntity
- SyncableEntity should now have applicationId and application relation
- Fix syncApp deletion, should now properly use migration v2 to delete
syncable entities
# Introduction
Preparing view-filter and view-group introduction in v2 core engine
Moving view from `core-modules` to `metadata-modules`
## What happened
### Created dedicated modules for each view entity:
- ViewFieldModule
- ViewFilterModule
- ViewFilterGroupModule
- ViewGroupModule
- ViewSortModule
### Each module is now completely independent with its own:
- Controller
- Resolver
- Service
- Entity
### Created dedicated abstraction metadata module folder for:
- flat-view-field
- flat-view
### Dependencies
- Eleminated circular dep on ViewModule to all others ones
- Granular import not importing the whole viewModule anymore everywhere
