Ratish jain 3290bf3ab1 fix(rest-api): prevent silent pagination failures and include valid options in enum validation errors (#20092)
# Summary 
(fixes #20044)

This PR implements two fixes for the REST API to enforce stricter
validation and provide better error messages.

Issue 1: Cursor parameter silently ignored
Problem: When users provided common cursor aliases (e.g., cursor, after,
before) instead of the correct parameter names (starting_after,
ending_before), the API silently ignored them and returned page 1 on
every request.
Solution: Added strict validation to detect common cursor aliases and
throw a clear error directing users to use the correct parameter names.

-
packages/twenty-server/src/engine/api/rest/input-request-parsers/ending-before-parser-utils/parse-ending-before-rest-request.util.ts
- Test files for both parsers
Example error:
Invalid cursor parameter 'cursor'. Use 'starting_after' for pagination.
---
Issue 2: OpportunityStageEnum not validated on REST
Problem: When creating or updating opportunities via REST with an
invalid stage value, the API either silently dropped the value or
returned a generic error without listing valid options.
Solution: Updated the SELECT field validation to include valid options
in the error message.
Files modified:
-
packages/twenty-server/src/engine/api/common/common-args-processors/data-arg-processor/validator-utils/validate-rating-and-select-field-or-throw.util.ts
- Test file
Example error:
Invalid value "BAD_VALUE" for field "stage". Valid values are: NEW,
SCREENING, MEETING, PROPOSAL, CUSTOMER
---
### Testing
- Added 5 new test cases for `parse-starting-after-rest-request.util.ts`
- Added 6 new test cases for `parse-ending-before-rest-request.util.ts`
- Added 1 new test case for
`validate-rating-and-select-field-or-throw.util.ts`
- All 21 tests passing
---
Breaking Changes
None - correct usage is unaffected.
