like the title says, how can i use the relationship field to only select a collection item that has a status of published? i dont want users of the cms to be able to pick drafts.

    Hey @olarssony , to do this, just pass a query constraint to the

    filterOptions

    property on your relationship field config:


    {
      name: "relatedPosts",
      type: "relationship",
      relationTo: "posts",
      filterOptions: () => {
        return {
          _status: {
            equals: 'published'
          }
        }
      },
    },


    You can find more about the

    filterOptions

    and creating queries here:
