# 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 migrating both the `field` and `object` metadata to be
using the new `FlatEntityFromV2` that requires all the
`UniversalFlatEntityExtraProperties` to be spread at the flat entity
root.
This means that we have to update all of their flat declaration
This type swap allows to isole a specific entity migration into his own
type scope and avoid to have everything handled at once
```ts
/**
* Currently under migration but aims to replace FlatEntity afterwards
*/
export type FlatEntityFromV2<
TEntity,
TMetadataName extends AllMetadataName | undefined = undefined,
TInnerFlatEntity extends { __universal?: unknown } = FlatEntityFrom<
TEntity,
TMetadataName
>,
> = Omit<TInnerFlatEntity, '__universal'> & TInnerFlatEntity['__universal'];
```
## Impact
Both object and field:
- Create input transpilation utils
- from entity to flat tools
- mocks
## Note
Removed from the universal extra properties the jsonb properties that do
not contain a serialized
## Next
Next step is to incrementally make the builder and runner expect
`UniversalFlatEntity` for both of these metadata
This way we will be able to fully migrate an entity e2e typesafely
# Introduction
In this PR we're refactoring the `FlatEntity` type to become a superset
of the `UniversalFlatEntity`.
Right now we're storing all the extra properties in `__universal`
property, at some point it might just be sibling to other entity and we
might rely on the `propertiesToCompare` constants and TypeScript
allowing passing a superset type into a smaller subset type
## FromTo utils
The entity to flat entity method now computes the universal information,
standardized a typing and pattern to do
## Example
Also strictly type

Should be merged once https://github.com/twentyhq/twenty/pull/16206 has
been released + command run to prod
In this PR
- Remove usage of viewGroup.fieldMetadataId, both in BE and FE states.
- But we still need to properly populate it until we fully remove
viewGroup.fieldMetadataId from db and ORM entity (upcoming 3rd PR out of
3). fieldMetadataId was removed from CoreViewGroup type and
CreateViewGroupInput and is determined BE-side based on the associated
view's mainGroupByFieldMetadataId. **I expect this means a downtime on
viewGroup creation, until both FE and BE are deployed and cache is
flushed.** This seems acceptable to me as it only regards viewGroup
creation.
- this information is replaced by view.mainGroupByFieldMetadataID
- Handle view group creation, update and deletion in the BE as a
side-effect of a view creation, update or deletion. Optimistic effects
are still used
- Add validation at view creation or update regarding
mainGroupByFieldMetadata
Left to do in 3rd PR
- Remove viewGroup.fieldMetadataId from db and ORM entity
- Restore feature allowing to update an existing grouped view's group by
field (already OK on BE side but need to rebuild FE optimistic)
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

## View soft deletion
We decided to remove the soft deletion grain on all the views, in this
PR context we've only removed soft deleted validation requirement on any
view entities
## Conclusion
close https://github.com/twentyhq/core-team-issues/issues/1754
## 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
### Summary
Implements side effect handling for `ViewGroup` and `ViewFilters` when
field metadata is updated in the v2 architecture. This ensures that
view-related records are properly maintained when enum field options are
modified, deleted, or created.
### Side effects
- **Side Effect System**: Added side effect handling for field metadata
updates that manages related view groups and view filters
- **Enum Field Updates**: When enum field options are modified, the
system now:
- **View Groups**: Creates new groups for added options, updates
existing groups for modified options, and deletes groups for removed
options
- **View Filters**: Updates filter values to reflect option changes and
removes filters that reference deleted options
### Enum runner fix
Update now works for both atomic enum and array enum ( multi select for
instance )
### Compute flat entity maps from to
Standardized this method usage across v2 services
Next step is to require dependencies dynamically
## Conclusion
closes https://github.com/twentyhq/core-team-issues/issues/1649
# Introduction
Initial motivation here was to migrate the object related records logic
from v1 to v2, please note that now in v2 views aren't records anymore
but core engine entities
## What's done
- Added specific label identifier targeting view field logic
- Handled side effects on viewField creation with lowest position on
object label identifier mutation
- Added viewField relations in field metadate entity + handled
optimistic in builder v2
- Added view relations in object metadata entity + handled optimistic in
builder v2
- Added integration tests covering the side effects and new validation
exceptions
- Sandardized cache computation
- Coverage on object metadata creation side effect on views and view
fields
## Coverage
```ts
PASS test/integration/graphql/suites/view/view-field/object-identifier-update-side-effect-on-view-field.integration-spec.ts
View Field Resolver - Successful object metadata identifier update side effect on view field
✓ should create a view field on label identifier object metadata update if it does not exist on view (7 ms)

# Introduction
Extracting the legacy fields build and dispatch out of the object one to
follow the generic flat entity build, also update caches entries for
object
## Main tasks
- flat field map cache
- flat field builder
- refactored the dispatch matrix to return flat entity maps instead of
flat entity arrays
- orchestrator aggregator
- removing legacy code
- making universal identifier aka standardId of standard field for
custom object deterministically dynamic
- perfs debug logs for v2
## TODO
- [x] Refactor the generic entity builder to be dependency flat maps in
order to main foreign keys list in flat parent
- [x] Refactor the flat object metadata to contain the array of related
fields and avoid costy find object fields
- [ ] Improve the create field handler to handle multiple field at once
- [ ] Refactor the dispatch to embbed the comparison
- [ ] Improve perf by extracting from elements out of existing
- [ ] Fix the labelIdentifierId validators on object before field
creation ( integ tests are in failing mode )

As you can see cache invalidation is way to long, we could replace the
cache by the optimistic in the end
# Introduction
Moving validation directly in the builder that has the perfect
granularity to do it.
When importing we won't have to infer and dispatch on the operation
nature ( update delete create ) and validate accordingly
## Objects
Only migrated object validation for the moment even though create object
involves a validate flat field metadata creation call too
## TODO
- improve `otherFlatObjectMetadataMapsToValidate` naming too vague
## Next
- handle fields validation within fields actions build
- Unit test coverage validation issue on builder and validate
- integration test plugging with new feature flag
## Manual tested
- Update
- Delete
- Create TODO
# 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
# Introduction
As discussed with Charles we will introduce a new command to convert
seeded twenty instance into `flatObjectMetadatas` `flatFieldMetadatas`
mocks but later.
We can think of this PR as a partial freeze of this command result run
even tho the template might not be strictly the same in the end.
For the moment we only extracted few objects with their fields in order
to start testing newly introduced tools
used scripts ( not committed and written on the fly ):

# Introduction
Following https://github.com/twentyhq/twenty/pull/13420
What has been done:
- `CreateFieldInput` transpilation to `FlatFieldMetadata`
- `FlatFieldMetadata` validator service
- A lof of transpilation utils from `input` to `flatObject` or
`flatField`
- Created dedicated v2 api metadata services
- Introducing `inferDeletionFromMissingObjectFieldIndex` in the builder,
to avoid diffing every object and field of the current workspace we
allow only generating create/update migration operations, usefull when
passing by the api metadata
## We still need to in another PR:
- Implement a strong unit test coverage and critical functions and
services
- Finalize flat field metadata validation exception for `options`
`defaultValue` `settings` and `relations`
- Finalize `flatObjectMetadata` validation and v2 service refactor
- Plug the new service when feature flag is enabled
# Introduction
In this PR we create basic transpilation methods and utils to handle
input to flat, entity to flat, object maps to flat. In order to
transpile everything into a common validation that will be implemented
in another PR
## FieldMetadataEntity typing
Added `never | null` to fields that should never be in order to ease
general abstracted method to pass null, as anw it's what is in the
database
## Todo
- ~~Create a feature flag~~
- Integration test for object creation through metadata api + pg col
introspection and snapshoting
