# Introduction
Following https://github.com/twentyhq/twenty/pull/17632 and
https://github.com/twentyhq/twenty/pull/17572
This PR deprecates the agent, skill, field metadata and role
`standardId` in favor of the `universalIdentifier` usage
## Note
- Removed previous standard ids declaration modules
- Twenty-sdk now re-exports the `STANDARD_OBJECTS` universalIdentifier
hashmap constant
- deleted some sync-metadata deadcode too ( mainly types )
# Introduction
In this PR we're deprecating the object metadata standard id and
replacing it to the universalIdentifier usage
As we've totally removed its insertion for both new field and object in
https://github.com/twentyhq/twenty/pull/17572
## Note
- Removed upgrade commands before `1.17`
# Introduction
Important note: This PR officially deprecates the `standardId`, about to
drop col and entity property after this has been merged
Important note2: Haven't updated the optimistic tool to also update the
universal identifier aggregators only the ids one, they should not be
consumed in the runner context -> need to improve typing or either the
optimistic tooling
In this PR we're introducing all the devxp allowing future metadata
incremental universal migration -> this has an impact on all existing
metadata actions handler ( explaining its size )
This PR also introduce workspace agnostic create update actions runner
for both field and object metadata in order to battle test the described
above devxp
Noting that these two metadata are the most complex to handle
Notes:
- A workspace migration is now highly bind to a
`applicationUniversalIdentifier`. Though we don't strictly validate
application scope for the moment
## Next
Migrate both object and field builder to universal comparison
## Universal Actions vs Flat Actions Architecture
### Concept
The migration system uses a two-phase action model:
1. **Universal Actions** - Actions defined using `universalIdentifier`
(stable, portable identifiers like `standardId` + `applicationId`)
2. **Flat Actions** - Actions defined using database `entityId` (UUIDs
specific to a workspace)
### Why This Separation?
- **Universal actions are portable**: They can be serialized, stored,
and replayed across different workspaces
- **Flat actions are executable**: They contain the actual database IDs
needed to perform operations
- **Decoupling**: The builder produces universal actions; the runner
transpiles them to flat actions at execution time
### Transpiler Pattern
Each action handler must implement
`transpileUniversalActionToFlatAction()`:
```typescript
@Injectable()
export class CreateFieldActionHandlerService extends WorkspaceMigrationRunnerActionHandler(
'create',
'fieldMetadata',
) {
override async transpileUniversalActionToFlatAction(
context: WorkspaceMigrationActionRunnerArgs<UniversalCreateFieldAction>,
): Promise<FlatCreateFieldAction> {
// Resolve universal identifiers to database IDs
const flatObjectMetadata = findFlatEntityByUniversalIdentifierOrThrow({
flatEntityMaps: allFlatEntityMaps.flatObjectMetadataMaps,
universalIdentifier: action.objectMetadataUniversalIdentifier,
});
return {
type: action.type,
metadataName: action.metadataName,
objectMetadataId: flatObjectMetadata.id, // Resolved ID
flatFieldMetadatas: /* ... transpiled entities ... */,
};
}
}
```
### Action Handler Base Class
`BaseWorkspaceMigrationRunnerActionHandlerService<TActionType,
TMetadataName>` provides:
- **`transpileUniversalActionToFlatAction()`** - Abstract method each
handler must implement
- **`transpileUniversalDeleteActionToFlatDeleteAction()`** - Shared
helper for delete actions
## FlatEntityMaps custom properties
Introduced a `TWithCustomMapsProperties` generic parameter to control
whether custom indexing structures are included:
- **`false` (default)**: Returns `FlatEntityMaps<MetadataFlatEntity<T>>`
- used in builder/runner contexts
- **`true`**: Returns the full maps type with custom properties (e.g.,
`byUserWorkspaceIdAndFolderId`) - used in cache contexts
## Create Field Actions Refactor
Refactored create-field actions to support relation field pairs
bundling.
**Problem:** Relation fields (e.g., `Attachment.targetTask` ↔
`Task.attachments`) couldn't resolve each other's IDs during
transpilation because they were in separate actions with independent
`fieldIdByUniversalIdentifier` maps.
**Solution:**
- Removed `objectMetadataUniversalIdentifier` from
`UniversalCreateFieldAction` and `objectMetadataId` from
`FlatCreateFieldAction` - each field now carries its own
- Runner groups fields by object internally and processes each table
separately
- Split aggregator into two focused utilities:
- `aggregateNonRelationFieldsIntoObjectActions` - merges non-relation
fields into object actions
- `aggregateRelationFieldPairs` - bundles relation pairs with shared
`fieldIdByUniversalIdentifier`

How it works
- `manifest.json` files are now committed when apps are published to our
repo
- to display available apps, from the server, we read into our github
repo, using a pod-scoped cache
- feature flagged
- app installation will be behind permission gate MARKETPLACE_APPS
Limitations and what is yet to develop
- content and settings tabs
- installed apps tab
- app installation
- test and potentially fix reading from .manifest.json once [Reshape
manifest
structure](https://github.com/twentyhq/core-team-issues/issues/2183) is
done. additional work is expected on assets notably. (couldnt properly
do it here as manifest.json will only be committed after this pr)
- we only read in community/ folder for now - we may want tochange that
- the cache is rather artisanal for now and scoped by pod - we may want
to change that
Removes the versioning system for logic functions (`latestVersion`,
`publishedVersions`) and simplifies the file storage structure.
### Changes
- Remove `publishOneLogicFunctionOrFail` and publishing logic from
workflow status updates
- Add `createLogicFunctionFromExistingLogicFunction` to duplicate logic
functions when creating draft workflow versions
- Update `createDraftStep` to create a new logic function copy instead
of referencing the same one
- Migrate file storage to v2 endpoints with
`applicationUniversalIdentifier`
- Unify path structure: source files at `source/workflow/{id}/`, built
files at `built-logic-function/workflow/{id}/`
- Store full paths in `sourceHandlerPath` and `builtHandlerPath` entity
fields
## Summary
- Remove `latestVersion` and `publishedVersions` columns from
`LogicFunction` entity
- Remove version parameter from logic function execution, build, and
source code retrieval
- Update all related services, DTOs, utilities, and tests
- Add database migration to drop the version columns
## Summary
Migrates trigger entities (`CronTriggerEntity`,
`DatabaseEventTriggerEntity`, `RouteTriggerEntity`) into
`ServerlessFunctionEntity` by storing trigger settings as JSONB columns
directly on the serverless function. This simplifies the architecture
since these relationships were effectively one-to-one.
## Changes
### Schema Changes
- Added three new nullable JSONB columns to `ServerlessFunctionEntity`:
- `cronTriggerSettings` - stores cron pattern
- `databaseEventTriggerSettings` - stores event name and updated fields
filter
- `httpRouteTriggerSettings` - stores path, HTTP method, auth
requirements, and forwarded headers
### Core Logic Updates
- `CronTriggerCronJob` - now queries `ServerlessFunctionEntity` directly
instead of `CronTriggerEntity`
- `CallDatabaseEventTriggerJobsJob` - now queries
`ServerlessFunctionEntity` directly
- `RouteTriggerService` - now queries `ServerlessFunctionEntity`
directly
- `ApplicationSyncService` - extracts trigger settings from manifest and
writes to serverless function
## Context
Introduces a middleware that automatically sets the workspace auth
context in AsyncLocalStorage for HTTP requests, making it available
throughout the request lifecycle without explicit parameter passing.
The motivation behind this change is to reduce boilerplate and simplify
the developer experience when working with workspace data in HTTP
request handlers.
The Problem (Before)
Every HTTP request handler that needed to access workspace data had to:
- Extract auth-related info from decorators (@AuthWorkspace(),
@AuthUserWorkspaceId(), etc.) in controller/resolver and pass down to
services
- Build or pass the authContext explicitly (sometimes with type
assertion which was flaky)
Then call executeInWorkspaceContext(authContext, async () => { ... })
## Changes
- Add WorkspaceAuthContextMiddleware that extracts auth context from the
request and stores it in AsyncLocalStorage
- Register middleware for GraphQL, metadata, and REST routes (runs after
hydration middlewares)
- Simplify executeInWorkspaceContext signature: fn is now the first
parameter, authContext is optional second
- If authContext is not provided, it's automatically retrieved from the
storage (set by middleware)
- Update all callers (~120 files) to use the new parameter order
- Fixes a bug in search where system auth context was used, bypassing
RLS feature.
## Implement Navigation Menu Items Frontend
Implements the frontend for navigation menu items, the new system
replacing favorites.
### Changes
- Added GraphQL fragments and queries for navigation menu items
- Added hooks for managing navigation menu items (create, update,
delete, sorting, filtering)
- Updated components to use navigation menu items instead of favorites
- Added test coverage for utility functions
### Migration Note
The favorites and navigation menu item modules currently exist in
parallel. The favorites code will be removed once all data has been
migrated to navigation menu items.
<!-- CURSOR_SUMMARY -->
---
> [!NOTE]
> Replaces Favorites with feature-flagged `NavigationMenuItem` across
frontend and backend, while keeping Favorites as fallback until
migration completes.
>
> - UI: new `navigation-menu-item` components (folders, orphan items,
drag provider/droppable, icons, skeleton), dispatcher components to
switch from Favorites, and updated “Add to favorites” action to create
`NavigationMenuItem` when `IS_NAVIGATION_MENU_ITEM_ENABLED`
> - DnD: shared `validateAndExtractFolderId` and droppable id utils
moved to `ui/layout/draggable-list`; favorites DnD updated to use shared
utils
> - GraphQL (client): add fragments, queries, mutations, hooks
(create/update/delete/find), and generated types; added
`RecordIdentifier` and `targetRecordIdentifier` on `NavigationMenuItem`
> - Prefetch: new prefetch state/effect for navigation menu items; skip
favorites prefetch when flag enabled
> - Backend: add DTOs (`NavigationMenuItem`, `RecordIdentifier`),
resolver `targetRecordIdentifier` field, service logic to fetch record
identifiers with permission-aware access and image signing,
`getRecordImageIdentifier` util, entity relation to `view`, and
migration adding FK on `viewId`
> - Feature flags & seeding: add `IS_NAVIGATION_MENU_ITEM_ENABLED` to
enums, dev seeder enables it; standard app seeds workspace navigation
menu items instead of favorites when flag on
> - Tests: add unit tests for sorting/labels/folder id and related utils

# Introduction
Previously the command would have been `old` renaming only any `owner`
field on `opportunity` object
Now we also search for any colliding `joinColumnName` with `ownerId`
which is also introduced by the new standard owner field
In a nutshell: previously gracefully handling existing custom `owner`
field collision but not for RELATION types that has an additional
collision surface: `joinColumnName`

https://github.com/twentyhq/twenty/issues/17413#issuecomment-3799872079
# Introduction
In this PR we're introducing mainly two branded type signatures for both
`JsonbProperty` entities properties and `SerializedRelation` (jsonb
serialized property storing another entity id).
Allowing to dynamically map over them later in order to build universal
`jsonb` `serialized` relations.
## `JsonbProperty`
A branded wrapper type that marks entity properties stored as PostgreSQL
JSONB columns. It adds a phantom brand `__JsonbPropertyBrand__` to
object types while leaving primitives unchanged. The branded key is
optional and typed as never, also omitted when transpiled to
`UniversalFlat`
**Should be used at entities lvl only:**
```typescript
@Column({ type: 'jsonb', nullable: false })
gridPosition: JsonbProperty<GridPosition>;
@Column({ nullable: false, type: 'jsonb', default: [] })
publishedVersions: JsonbProperty<string[]>;
```
## `SerializedRelation`
A branded string type that marks foreign key IDs stored inside JSONB
objects. These are entity references serialized within a JSONB column
rather than being a regular database foreign key.
**Usage in jsonb property generic***
```ts
type FieldMetadataRelationSettings = {
relationType: RelationType;
onDelete?: RelationOnDeleteAction;
joinColumnName?: string | null;
junctionTargetFieldId?: SerializedRelation;
};
```
## `FormatJsonbSerializedRelation<T>`
A transformation type that processes JSONB properties for universal
entity mapping. It:
1. Detects properties with the `JsonbProperty` brand
2. Finds `SerializedRelation` properties
3. Renames them from `*Id` to `*UniversalIdentifier`
4. Removes the brand from the output type ( optional though )
```typescript
// Input: JsonbProperty<{ targetFieldMetadataId: SerializedRelation }>
// Output: { targetFieldMetadataUniversalIdentifier: SerializedRelation }
```
## Result
An example of the dynamic type mapping, through a type-test example
```ts
type SettingsTestCase = UniversalFlatFieldMetadata<
| FieldMetadataType.RELATION
| FieldMetadataType.NUMBER
| FieldMetadataType.TEXT
>['settings']
type SettingsExpectedResult =
| {
relationType: RelationType;
onDelete?: RelationOnDeleteAction | undefined;
joinColumnName?: string | null | undefined;
junctionTargetFieldUniversalIdentifier?: SerializedRelation | undefined;
}
| {
dataType?: NumberDataType | undefined;
decimals?: number | undefined;
type?: FieldNumberVariant | undefined;
}
| {
displayedMaxRows?: number | undefined;
}
| null;
type Assertions = [
Expect<Equal<SettingsTestCase, SettingsExpectedResult>>,
]
```
## Remarks
- Removed duplicated twenty-server and twenty-shared typed
- Removed class validator instances for default value that were not used
at runtime, we will refactor that to add validation across all entities
following a same pattern
# Introduction
Currently refactoring `flatEntity` typing, encountering some tsc errors
due to this fk aggregator custom override
It shall now follow generic pattern leading to be named `fieldIds`
Needs to flush object cache when released
Closes [1744](https://github.com/twentyhq/core-team-issues/issues/1744).
This PR migrates attachments to morph relations behind a feature flag,
following the TimelineActivity pattern. it introduces the
`IS_ATTACHMENT_MIGRATED` flag, updates standard field metadata and
indexes to use morph relations, adds a workspace migration that renames
`attachment.*Id` columns to `target*Id` and converts the corresponding
field metadata to `MORPH_RELATION` with a shared `morphId`. On the
frontend, attachment read/write paths now switch to `target*Id` when the
flag is enabled.
It also fixes optimistic filtering for morph join columns. The metadata
API deduplicates morph fields, so attachments now expose a single target
field of type `MORPH_RELATION` plus a `morphRelations` array listing
each target object. Because only one `settings.joinColumnName` is
returned (e.g. `targetRocketId`), filters like `targetCompanyId` don’t
map to any field and the optimistic cache code throws.
`doesMorphRelationJoinColumnMatch` resolves this by computing all valid
join column names from `morphRelations` using
`computeMorphRelationFieldName` and comparing them to the filter key.
That makes filters like `targetCompanyId` resolvable even with a single
target field, so attachment uploads and list matching no longer crash.

src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/50e19418-3438-4d1e-9f1f-1bc1a03174a9"
/>
<br />
<br />
Today the metadata API returns one morph field called `target` and a
list of possible targets (`morphRelations`), but it does not tell us the
join column for each target. That’s why the Frontend had to compute join
column names.
If we want to fix this at the API level, there are two options:
- Add join column names to each target in `morphRelations` (e.g. company
→ `targetCompanyId`). This is additive and low‑risk.
- Return each target as its own field (`targetCompany`, `targetPerson`,
etc.) instead of a single target. This is a larger change because it
changes the shape of metadata and would require more UI updates.

Implements a new syncable `navigationMenuItem` entity in the core schema
to replace the workspace `favorite` entity.
## Next Steps
- Frontend integration ([separate
PR](https://github.com/twentyhq/twenty/pull/17268))
- Data migration (separate PR)
Summary
- Serverless functions are now built when created/updated instead of at
execution time
- Added builtHandlerPath field to track pre-built function artifacts
- Renamed base-typescript-project to seed-project with pre-built ESM
output included
- Renamed file folder enums for consistency (Functions → BuiltFunction,
SourceCode → Source)
- supports backwards compatibility with existing serverless functions
Tested with all combinations
- storage : local driver and S3 driver
- serverless : local driver and lambda driver
# Introduction
As we've been identifying both standard and custom entities for all the
metadata that had standard
We now still need to identify all custom entities enforcing them to have
an `applicationId` and `universalIdentifier`
In this PR we've removed the `SyncableEntityRequired` in favor requiring
props directly in the `SyncableEntity`
Which means that all metadata in db will now expect non nullable
applicationId and universalIdentifier across the whole application
Will add some type cleanup later in

As part of the extensibility effort, we are introducing a new engine
entity called "Front Component". This represents a dynamic react
component that will be rendered in CommandMenu actions or in PageLayout
widgets
This PR introduce the entity and all the necessary boilerplate to make
it syncable and cachable in the engine
