Fixes https://github.com/twentyhq/twenty/issues/20524 ## Problem Adding (or renaming/removing) an option on a `SELECT` / `MULTI_SELECT` field failed for fields whose object + field name combination is long, surfacing to the user only as: > Migration action 'update' for 'fieldMetadata' failed — Migration execution failed. The real underlying Postgres error was: ``` type "_personalInsurancePolicyOrQuote_insuranceCoverageClassification" already exists ALTER TYPE "..."."_personalInsurancePolicyOrQuote_insuranceCoverageClassifications_enum" RENAME TO "..._insuranceCoverageClassifications_enum_old" ``` ## Root cause PostgreSQL truncates identifiers to **63 bytes** (`NAMEDATALEN - 1`). The enum type name `_personalInsurancePolicyOrQuote_insuranceCoverageClassifications_enum` is **69 chars**, so it was already stored truncated to 63 (`..._insuranceCoverageClassification` — the `_enum` suffix chopped off). Multi-select / select option changes go through the rename-and-recreate path in `alterEnumValues`, which renames the enum to `<name>_old`. That candidate is 73 chars → Postgres truncates it back to the **same 63-byte string** as the source → `type "..." already exists`. The failure is deterministic, so every retry on that field failed. The transaction rolls back cleanly, leaving no `_old` artifacts behind. The temporary column name (`<column>_old`) had the same latent bug for very long field names. ## Fix Add `buildTemporaryIdentifier(base, suffix)` to `WorkspaceSchemaEnumManagerService`, which trims the base name so the `_old` suffix survives within 63 bytes and stays distinct from the original. Applied to both the temporary enum name and the temporary column name. The `_old` type/column are transient (dropped within the same transaction), so the trimmed name only needs to fit and not collide — which it now does. ## Test Added `workspace-schema-enum-manager.service.spec.ts` reproducing the exact failing object/field names. Both assertions (target identifier ≤ 63 bytes; truncated source ≠ truncated target) fail on `main` and pass with the fix. ## Recovery No manual cleanup needed for affected workspaces — failed migrations rolled back cleanly. Once deployed, option edits on long-named fields work; the field remained fully usable in the meantime (only option changes were blocked).

Installation
Cloud
The fastest way to get started. Sign up at twenty.com and spin up a workspace in under a minute, with no infrastructure to manage and always up to date.
Build an app
Scaffold a new app with the Twenty CLI:
npx create-twenty-app my-app
Define objects, fields, and views as code:
import { defineObject, FieldType } from 'twenty-sdk/define';
export default defineObject({
nameSingular: 'deal',
namePlural: 'deals',
labelSingular: 'Deal',
labelPlural: 'Deals',
fields: [
{ name: 'name', label: 'Name', type: FieldType.TEXT },
{ name: 'amount', label: 'Amount', type: FieldType.CURRENCY },
{ name: 'closeDate', label: 'Close Date', type: FieldType.DATE_TIME },
],
});
Then ship it to your workspace:
npx twenty app:publish --private
See the app development guide for objects, views, agents, and logic functions.
Self-hosting
Run Twenty on your own infrastructure with Docker Compose, or contribute locally via the local setup guide.
Everything you need
Twenty gives you the building blocks of a modern CRM (objects, views, workflows, and agents) and lets you extend them as code. Here's a tour of what's in the box.
