Visual Editing with Sanity

Sometimes you want to omit certain fields or add certain information when duplicating documents. It's now possible to programmatically modify the created document when duplicating a document. This can be achieved by setting the mapDocument option when executing the duplicate document operation, or by passing a prop of the same name (mapDocument) to the system duplicate document action component.

mapDocument is a function that receives the duplicated document as its only parameter, and should return a new object representing the duplicated document that will be created.

Here's an example demonstrating how a custom duplicate document action could be used to omit a field (slug) from the duplicated document:

// sanity.config.js

import {defineConfig} from 'sanity'
import {structureTool} from 'sanity/structure'
import {schemaTypes} from './schemas'
import {createCustomDuplicateAction} from './actions'

export default defineConfig({
  name: 'default',
  projectId: '<project-id>',
  dataset: 'production',

  plugins: [
    structureTool(),
  ],
  document: {
    actions: (actions) => actions.map((actionItem) => 
      actionItem.action === 'duplicate' 
      ? createCustomDuplicateAction(actionItem) 
      : actionItem
    ),
  },
  schema: {
    types: schemaTypes,
  },
})

import {type DuplicateDocumentActionComponent} from 'sanity'

export function createCustomDuplicateAction(
  originalAction: DuplicateDocumentActionComponent,
): DuplicateDocumentActionComponent {
  return function CustomDuplicateAction(props) {
    return originalAction({
      ...props,
      mapDocument: ({slug, ...document}) => document,
    })
  }
}

Sometimes you want to work iteratively on a Content Release and stage changes to the same set of documents. You can now duplicate a release from the overview page by clicking on the '...' button and select 'Duplicate release'.

This will create a new release copying the original release's title, description, release type and publish date. New versions of all documents in the original release will also be created.

Duplicating a locked and scheduled release will create a new active release, which can be rescheduled.

• Fixes issue where a document location resolver state was incorrectly duplicated across multiple Presentation instances.
• Fix for an issue where documents marked as to be unpublished in a release show an empty document form title preview. Now the document form will show the current title of that document.
• Fixes an issue in where users with no dataset read permissions were seeing an error toast on load.
• Fixes an issue in where the studio dev command will get blocked if using auto update in a non interactive environment.
