## Summary
Adds an external **Partner** self-service role that sees and edits only
its own
records via row-level security (RLS), so a validated partner can sign in
and manage
just the deals they're matched on.
## What's included
- **`partnerUser` relation** on Partner, Person, Company, Opportunity (+
inverse
relations on Workspace Member) — the login member a record belongs to.
- **RLS predicates** scoping each of those objects to "partnerUser IS
the current
workspace member", plus a self-scope on Workspace Member so member-typed
relations
resolve without exposing the internal team roster. Applied out-of-band
via
`yarn rls:configure` (the app manifest cannot ship RLS predicates).
- **Assign / unassign cascade** (`on-opportunity-partner-assigned` logic
function):
assigning a Partner to an Opportunity stamps `partnerUser` onto the
Opportunity +
its Company + People; removing the Partner clears it (and cascades to
the
Company/People when no other deal of that member still uses them).
- **Partner role permissions**
- Partner profile: full read/update.
- Opportunity: read all; **update `stage` and `amount` only** (every
other
user-facing field locked).
- Company / Person: read-only.
- Workspace Member: read-only, RLS-scoped to self.
- **`partnerUser` column** added to the Validated Partners view so the
login member
can be assigned inline.
## Install / upgrade note
After install or reinstall, run `yarn rls:configure` (`:prod` variant
for prod) to
(re)apply the RLS predicates and verify the field-permission locks.
Manifest sync
handles object/field permissions; predicates are applied by this script.
## Platform gaps found (for the eng team)
1. **Manifest sync doesn't invalidate the roles-permissions Redis
cache.** Permission
changes deployed via `yarn twenty dev --once` persist to the DB but
aren't reflected
in the cached snapshot used for enforcement until
`engine:workspace:metadata:permissions:roles-permissions:<workspaceId>:{data,hash}`
is flushed. Relevant on any real workspace when permissions change.
2. **Locking a server-injected field silently breaks all updates.** The
`*.updateOne`
pre-query hook writes `updatedBy` into every update, so
`canUpdateFieldValue:false`
on `updatedBy` makes the permission check reject *every* record update
with
`PERMISSION_DENIED`. Field-permission lock lists must exclude
server-managed/injected
fields (`updatedBy`; and `position`, co-written with `stage` on kanban
drag).
## Version
Minor bump → `0.5.0` (new role, new fields, new behaviour;
backwards-compatible).
## Testing
- Verified locally as a partner user: edits own profile; edits
Opportunity stage +
amount; Company/Person read-only; sees only matched deals; unassigning a
partner
removes the deal (and its company/people) from the partner's view.
- `yarn rls:configure` passes (5 predicates upserted; 24 Opportunity
fields locked,
stage + amount editable).
- Lint clean.

Why Twenty
Twenty gives technical teams the building blocks for a custom CRM that meets complex business needs and quickly adapts as the business evolves. Twenty is the CRM you build, ship, and version like the rest of your stack.

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.
