Discussion about the "live edit" feature in Sanity.io and its benefits for setting type and content policies.

“Live edited” …what’s the difference?

Hey (Removed Name),
Looks like in live edit mode, documents are published in real time.

Very odd. There’s no mention of that feature in the UI or and buttons to adjust modes.
I wonder how that happened and how that’s used.

im pretty sure this is something opted into in config. im trying to find where they mention it.

Here it is: https://www.sanity.io/docs/drafts#6b73ab68807e

also here in the prop list https://www.sanity.io/docs/document-type

but that description is wrong

“Turns off drafts when set to

true

.”

oh I see nm, though damn that is some confusing languge. maybe its the prop name

This also happens when making edits via the API, i believe.

WOW, this is a super awesome feature! I didn’t realize I’d used it.
Knowing I can set a type this way is a big benefit, while also having more strict policies on other content.

That’s worth a marketing campaign
😜
