## Context Every entity created as a side effect of object creation must support the overridable pattern (`isActive` + `overrides` + override routing) before we can re-own side effects to their true application. Starting with View. viewField, viewFieldGroup, pageLayoutTab and pageLayoutWidget already extend `OverridableEntity`. This PR brings `view` to the same pattern. ## What this does - `ViewEntity` now extends `OverridableEntity<ViewOverrides>` (adds `isActive` boolean + `overrides` jsonb). All editable view properties are overridable; the 3 fieldMetadata foreign keys are converted to/from universal identifiers like viewField's `viewFieldGroupId`. - **Update**: mutations on a view not owned by the caller (e.g. standard views like "All Companies") are written into `overrides` instead of mutating the row. Reads merge overrides in the DTO. - **Delete/destroy**: views not owned by the caller are deactivated (`isActive = false`) instead of deleted. ~~- **INDEX invariant**: `key = INDEX` views can only be created via object-creation side effect. The API now rejects creating, deleting or destroying INDEX views (object-deletion cascade is unaffected). This was not really needed for this migration but was flagged during implementation.~~ - **Front**: views with `isActive = false` are filtered out of the views selector. - Fast instance command adds the two columns (`2-12-instance-command-fast-...-view-overridable-entity.ts`). ## Notes - Custom (caller-owned) views behave exactly as before: direct updates, soft delete. - View-group side effects (kanban groups) are computed on the override-merged view so overridden `mainGroupByFieldMetadataId` works.

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.
