Also is it possible to populate an schema with read-only data?

For example:
import { translationKeys } from "../../../translations/translationKeys";
export default {
name: "translations",
title: "Translations",
icon: MdLanguage,
type: "document",
// TODO: populate with data
data: translationKeys,
fields: [
{
name: "allStrings",
title: "All strings",
type: "array",
of: [
{
type: "string",
name: "key",
title: "Key",
},
{
type: "string",
name: "value",
title: "Value",
},
],
},
],
};Oct 12, 2021, 3:14 PM
Hey User! Fields can take a readOnly property. What's your ultimate goal here? Are you looking to set them to read only after they are published the first time in the Studio? Or add the data via an API then set it to read only?

export const translationKeys = [ "create-account", "create-your-account", "facebook-connect", "recover-password", "sign-in", "no-account-yet", ]

This is my approach now:
import { MdLanguage } from "react-icons/md";
import { translationKeys } from "../../../translations/translationKeys";
export default {
name: "translations",
title: "Translations",
icon: MdLanguage,
type: "document",
fields: [
{
name: "key",
title: "Key",
type: "string",
options: {
list: translationKeys,
},
},
{
name: "value",
title: "Value",
type: "localeString",
},
],
preview: {
select: {
title: "key",
},
},
};Oct 13, 2021, 8:03 AM

But I feel like there is a cleaner way, like all the keys as documents and the value's as input

Ah, I see now: you want to have list values added to the Studio from a separate location. The way you've gone about it is the correct way to go.
