What

Fixes #16977

The list view relationship/upload cell loads related docs through RelationshipProvider, which requested GET /api/<slug>?depth=0&select[<useAsTitle>]=true with no draft parameter, so Payload returned the published/main-collection row.

Because draft-only edits are written only to the versions table (the main row is updated only on first create and on publish), the list cell read a stale/empty title and rendered "(Untitled)", while the edit-view relationship field (which loads options with draft: true) rendered the real title. This is especially visible with autosave.

This PR requests the related docs with draft=true in RelationshipProvider, matching the edit-view relationship field, so the list column shows the same title.

How

  • Append draft=true to the request made by packages/ui/src/elements/Table/RelationshipProvider/index.tsx.

Tests

Added an e2e test in test/fields-relationship/e2e.spec.ts (should show draft-only title for related doc in list view cell) that:

  1. Creates a related doc whose title only exists in a draft (empty main row, then the title saved as a draft).
  2. Creates a doc that holds a relationship to it.
  3. Asserts the list view relationship cell shows the draft title.

Without the fix the test fails because the cell renders "(Untitled)":

Error: expect(locator).toContainText(expected) failed

Locator: locator('table > tbody > tr').filter({ hasText: 'Parent doc' }).locator('.cell-relatedVersionedDoc')
Expected substring: "Draft Only Title"
Received string:    "Untitled - ID: 6a2bf2bf93581c5a92f6c4f1"
Timeout: 6000ms

The dev server log for that failing run confirms the root cause: the request omits the draft param.

GET /api/versioned-relationship-field?depth=0&limit=250&locale=en&where[id][in]=... 200

With the fix applied the request includes draft=true and the test passes.

Notes

A companion PR targets main with the same fix.

The list view relationship/upload cell loaded related docs through
RelationshipProvider without the draft parameter, so Payload returned the
published main-collection row. For documents whose title only exists in a
draft (the value lives in the versions table), this rendered "(Untitled)".

Request the related docs with draft=true to match the edit view
relationship field, so the list column shows the same title.

Details

Next to the size is how much the size has increased or decreased compared with the base branch of this PR.

  • ‼️: Size increased by 20% or more. Special attention should be given to this.
  • ⚠️: Size increased in acceptable range (lower than 20%).
  • ✅: No change or even downsized.
  • 🗑️: The out file is deleted: not found in base branch.
  • 🆕: The out file is newly found: will be added to base branch.

Adds an e2e test reproducing #16977: a related doc whose title only exists
in a draft rendered "(Untitled)" in the list view relationship cell. The
test fails without the draft=true fix in RelationshipProvider.
