✨ Highlights

This release introduces the option to mark document and field types as deprecated. This can be used to gently steer Studio users towards updated schemas or to phase out legacy fields without abrupt changes.

export const deprecatedDocument = defineType({
  name: 'deprecatedDocument',
  title: 'Deprecated Document',
  type: 'document',
  deprecated: {
    reason: 'Use the Author document type instead',
  },
  fields: [
    defineField({
      name: 'title',
      type: 'string',
      deprecated: {
        reason: 'This field was used in a legacy system and is no longer used.',
      },
    }),
  ],
})

When a field or document is deprecated, an informative message will appear in the Studio, clearly indicating the recommended action to take. This aids in maintaining a clean and up-to-date content structure.

Bonus: Deprecation messages now appear in the GraphQL schema, providing clarity during transitions. Deprecated document types and fields should be appropriately treated in documentation and tooling.

This release also introduces a new layer of interactivity in the Studio with the ability for users to react to comments! 🎉

Far be it from us to speak ill of verbose and precise communication using full sentences, but sometimes you just want to express a sentiment quickly with a 🚀 or a 👍 and Sanity Studio now has you covered for those occasions. Streamline feedback processes and consensus building, and make your Studio a more vibrant collaborative space in one fell swoop with comment reactions. 🎩

🐛 Notable bugfixes

• Enhances user experience in the Studio by adding localized browser document titles and correcting unlocalized strings, accommodating users who prefer languages other than English.
• Fixes an issue where number-like string flags passed to CLI commands were parsed as numbers by the option parser, leading to truncation of large integer-only document IDs and similar.
• Resolves a restoration issue with the token login method ensuring the active session is retained post webpage reloads when cookieless auth is in effect.
• Enhances UI components consistency in tooltips and delay groups for better UX.
• Fixes a performance issue by re-applying useMemo on DocumentPaneContext values, reducing unnecessary re-renders and improving document pane performances.
• Ensures that errors in the useFeatureEnabled hook result in an empty features list rather than disruptive error toasts; this minimizes user interruption when feature availability checks fail.
• Fixes multiple bugs in the sanity documents validate CLI command relating to visibility, unnecessary validation reports, reference checks batch processing, and unknown field validation for images and file types.
• Improves spacing between the published date and the last updated date in the document status bar for better readability.
