Supa

last month

Hello, i am having trouble with collection fields, when i add "select" type to my collection inside array i get this cast to embedded error, does anyone know what am i doing wrong here or is it a bug in payload version 2.0?

{
          name: 'link',
          type: 'group',
          fields: [
            {
              name: 'type',
              type: 'select',
              defaultValue: 'BUTTON',
              options: ['BUTTON', 'LINK'],
            },
          ]
}

here is my full config:

export const Pages: CollectionConfig = {
  slug: 'pages',
  admin: {
    useAsTitle: 'title',
    defaultColumns: ['title', 'slug', 'updatedAt'],
    preview: (doc) =>

${process.env.PAYLOAD_PUBLIC_SITE_URL}/api/preview?url=${formatAppURL({ doc })}

,
  },
  hooks: {
    beforeChange: [populatePublishedDate],
    afterRead: [],
    afterChange: [],
  },
  versions: false,
  access: {
    read: adminsOrPublished,
    update: admins,
    create: admins,
    delete: admins,
  },
  fields: [
    {
      name: 'title',
      type: 'text',
      localized: true,
      required: true,
    },
    {
      name: 'columns',
      type: 'select',
      required: true,
      options: [
        {
          label: '1',
          value: '1',
        },
        {
          label: '2',
          value: '2',
        },
        {
          label: '3',
          value: '3',
        },
        {
          label: '4',
          value: '4',
        },
      ],
    },
    {
      name: 'event',
      type: 'array',
      fields: [
        {
          name: 'title',
          type: 'text',
          localized: true,
        },
        {
          name: 'description',
          type: 'text',
          localized: true,
        },
        {
          name: 'image',
          type: 'upload',
          relationTo: 'media',
        },
        {
          name: 'link',
          type: 'group',
          fields: [
            {
              name: 'type',
              type: 'select',
              defaultValue: 'BUTTON',
              options: ['BUTTON', 'LINK'],
            },
          ]
        }
      ]
    },
    {
      name: 'publishedDate',
      type: 'date',
      admin: {
        position: 'sidebar',
      },
    },
    slugField(),
  ],
}

;

seems like updating to 2.0.9 fixed this for me
