Built-in Actions

The admin panel provides these actions automatically for every collection. No configuration needed.

Available Actions

Access Control

Actions respect your collection's .access() rules. If a user lacks permission for an operation, the corresponding action button is hidden:

collection("posts")
	.fields(({ f }) => ({
		/* ... */
	}))
	.access({
		create: ({ session }) => session?.user?.role === "admin",
		update: ({ session }) => session?.user?.role === "admin",
		delete: ({ session }) => session?.user?.role === "admin",
		read: true,
	});

Soft Delete Behavior

When a collection has softDelete: true in its options:

• Delete sets deletedAt instead of removing the row
• Restore action appears on soft-deleted records
• Soft-deleted records are hidden from default queries but accessible via filters

.options({ softDelete: true })

Workflow Stage Actions

When a collection uses versioning with a workflow, additional stage transition actions appear:

.options({
  versioning: {
    enabled: true,
    workflow: {
      stages: ["draft", "review", "published"],
      initialStage: "draft",
    },
  },
})

The form toolbar shows transition buttons like "Move to Review" or "Publish" based on the current stage and allowed transitions.

For stage configuration, transition access rules, hooks, stage reads, and scheduled transitions, see Versioning & Workflow.
