## Problem
After creating a custom object in **Settings → Data Model**, the new
object's **"New Field"** (and **"Add relation"**) buttons are missing.
They only appear after a hard page refresh.
## Root cause
`CreateOneObjectMetadataItem`
(`packages/twenty-front/src/modules/object-metadata/graphql/mutations.ts`)
selected only a subset of object-level fields and omitted
`isUIEditable`, `isRemote`, `isSystem`, `isUICreatable`,
`universalIdentifier`, `shortcut`, and `duplicateCriteria` — all of
which are present in the shared `ObjectMetadataFields` fragment used by
the bootstrap query.
`useCreateOneObjectMetadataItem` writes the mutation response into the
metadata store via `addToDraft`. Because the mutation resolves *after*
the SSE create event and `addToDraft` replaces entries by `id`, the
reduced mutation response overwrites the fuller record that arrived over
SSE. The stored object then has `isUIEditable === undefined`, so
`isObjectMetadataReadOnly` returns `true` (`!undefined`), and
`ObjectFields` hides the action buttons via its `{!readonly && …}`
guard.
A hard refresh "fixes" it only because the bootstrap query repopulates
the store from `ObjectMetadataFields`, which includes the missing
fields.
## Fix
Add the missing object-level fields to the `CreateOneObjectMetadataItem`
selection so a newly created object matches the bootstrap shape, and
regenerate the metadata GraphQL types. No other code changes required.
## How to test
1. Go to **Settings → Data Model** and create a new custom object.
2. Open the new object's **Fields** tab.
3. ✅ The **"New Field"** button is visible immediately — no refresh
needed.
Before this change, the button was hidden until a manual refresh.

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.
