Hi everyone! If I want to set up one of fields in each record with default value how I can achieve it? For examle I have two fields: quantity and text and I want to edit only field quantity in the future
Thanks in advance!
Welcome to the forum!
If you want a field to have a default value filled in, you can edit its field settings under the “Default value” tab and provide one:
We don’t technically have field-level permissions, but you can kind of fake it by either:
- Using a plugin like “Hide field from role”: Hide field from role - Plugins — DatoCMS
or maybe just making a fieldset like “For developers only, don’t edit” and moving those fields into there (if you trust your editors enough)
If you really need to enforce permissions for a field, it unfortunately needs to be in another model altogether. You can still link them with relationships.
