App permissions tab: - The fallback uuidv4() for a marketplace field was generated twice, so id and universalIdentifier could diverge; it's now computed once and reused as it seemed to be the intention (even though I don't really think it's a good idea) - Renamed buildobjectMetadataItemsFromMarketplaceApp → buildObjectMetadataItemsFromMarketplaceApp to follow camelCase. Morph relation validation: - Fixed the user-facing message "At least one relation is require" → "...is required" - Typos in the related test descriptions (Morh → Morph, samefield → same field) and their snapshots. Docs - The UUID field-type row in views.mdx only listed IS; updated to the full set supported by FILTER_OPERANDS_MAP (IS, IS_NOT, IS_EMPTY, IS_NOT_EMPTY).

A **view** is a saved configuration for how records of an object are displayed: which fields appear, their order, whether they're visible, and any filters or groups applied. Use `defineView()` to ship pre-configured views with your app — typically a default index view for each custom object you create.
|
|
|
|
```ts src/views/example-view.ts
|
|
import { defineView, ViewKey } from 'twenty-sdk/define';
|
|
import { EXAMPLE_OBJECT_UNIVERSAL_IDENTIFIER } from '../objects/example-object';
|
|
import { NAME_FIELD_UNIVERSAL_IDENTIFIER } from '../objects/example-object';
|
|
|
|
export default defineView({
|
|
universalIdentifier: 'a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890',
|
|
name: 'All example items',
|
|
objectUniversalIdentifier: EXAMPLE_OBJECT_UNIVERSAL_IDENTIFIER,
|
|
icon: 'IconList',
|
|
key: ViewKey.INDEX,
|
|
position: 0,
|
|
fields: [
|
|
{
|
|
universalIdentifier: 'f926bdb7-6af7-4683-9a09-adbca56c29f0',
|
|
fieldMetadataUniversalIdentifier: NAME_FIELD_UNIVERSAL_IDENTIFIER,
|
|
position: 0,
|
|
isVisible: true,
|
|
size: 200,
|
|
},
|
|
],
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Key points
|
|
|
|
- `objectUniversalIdentifier` specifies which object this view applies to. It can be a custom object you defined or a standard Twenty object.
|
|
- `key` determines the view type — `ViewKey.INDEX` is the main list view for the object.
|
|
- `fields` controls which columns appear and in what order. Each field references a `fieldMetadataUniversalIdentifier`.
|
|
- You can also declare `filters`, `filterGroups`, `groups`, and `fieldGroups` for advanced configurations.
|
|
- `position` controls ordering when multiple views exist for the same object.
|
|
|
|
## Filters
|
|
|
|
A view can ship with pre-applied filters. Each filter has three coordinates: the **field** being filtered, the **operand** (how to compare), and the **value** (what to compare against). All three must line up — using an operand that doesn't apply to a field type will be rejected at sync time.
|
|
|
|
```ts
|
|
import { ViewFilterOperand } from 'twenty-shared/types';
|
|
|
|
filters: [
|
|
{
|
|
universalIdentifier: '...',
|
|
fieldMetadataUniversalIdentifier: STATUS_FIELD_UNIVERSAL_IDENTIFIER,
|
|
operand: ViewFilterOperand.IS,
|
|
value: ['ACTIVE'],
|
|
},
|
|
],
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Supported operands per field type
|
|
|
|
| Field type | Supported operands |
|
|
| -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
|
|
| `TEXT`, `EMAILS`, `FULL_NAME`, `ADDRESS`, `LINKS`, `PHONES`, `RAW_JSON`, `FILES`, `ACTOR`, `ARRAY` | `CONTAINS`, `DOES_NOT_CONTAIN`, `IS_EMPTY`, `IS_NOT_EMPTY` |
|
|
| `ACTOR.source`, `ACTOR.workspaceMemberId` | `IS`, `IS_NOT`, `IS_EMPTY`, `IS_NOT_EMPTY` |
|
|
| `SELECT` | `IS`, `IS_NOT`, `IS_EMPTY`, `IS_NOT_EMPTY` |
|

|
|
| `RELATION` | `IS`, `IS_NOT`, `IS_EMPTY`, `IS_NOT_EMPTY` |
|
|

|
|

|
|
| `UUID` | `IS`, `IS_NOT`, `IS_EMPTY`, `IS_NOT_EMPTY` |
|
|
| `TS_VECTOR` | `VECTOR_SEARCH` |
|
|
|
|
> Field types with similar names can use entirely different operands — `SELECT` and `MULTI_SELECT` being a common case.
|
|
|
|
### Value shape per operand
|
|
|
|
The `value` field is always a JSON-serializable value, but its expected shape depends on the operand:
|
|
|
|
| Operand family | Value shape | Example |
|
|
| ----------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------ | ------------------------ |
|
|
| `IS`, `IS_NOT` on `SELECT` | array of option keys (strings) | `['ACTIVE', 'PENDING']` |
|
|
| `CONTAINS`, `DOES_NOT_CONTAIN` on `MULTI_SELECT` | array of option keys (strings) | `['TAG_A']` |
|
|
| `IS`, `IS_NOT` on `RELATION` | array of record IDs (uuids) | `['c5a1...']` |
|
|
| `CONTAINS`, `DOES_NOT_CONTAIN` on text-like fields | string | `'acme'` |
|
|
| `IS`, `IS_NOT` on `NUMBER` | string (the value) | `'5'` |
|
|
| `IS` on `RATING` / `UUID` | string (the value) | `'5'` |
|
|
| `GREATER_THAN_OR_EQUAL`, `LESS_THAN_OR_EQUAL` | string (the bound) | `'10'` |
|
|
| `IS`, `IS_BEFORE`, `IS_AFTER` on `DATE` / `DATE_TIME` | ISO 8601 string | `'2025-01-01T00:00:00Z'` |
|
|
| `IS_EMPTY`, `IS_NOT_EMPTY` | empty string | `''` |
|
|
| `IS` on `BOOLEAN` | `'true'` or `'false'` | `'true'` |
|
|
|
|
## How views show up in the UI
|
|
|
|
A view by itself isn't reachable from the sidebar. To make it appear there, pair it with a [navigation menu item](/developers/extend/apps/layout/navigation-menu-items) of type `VIEW` that points at the view's `universalIdentifier`. That's the canonical pattern: every custom object typically ships a default view + a sidebar entry that opens it.
