Hi! 🙂 I have a question about Boolean types.So I've created a
boolean 
initialValue
to true but when I try to run locally sanity studio the toggle is in the middle 🤔
Am I missing something out? Sorry but I'm new to the platform
🙂

fields
array a new boolean type and run the studio

Initial values will only work for new documents, so anything already created would need to be set manually. However, any new documents should respect your 
initialValue
setting.

If you have hundreds or more documents to set, you could also set them programmatically.
