  Are you adding lastModifiedBy with a plugin or similar?

  So what I see is what I would expect, I think. The shape you are seeing is not what is stored in the db, the db just stores the value as id and the relationTo. If you set a

  depth

  parameter in your query params

  ?depth=1

  what do you get?

  
  
  

  Think about it if the last modified was another user, it would fulfill that user and they would have a last modified field, that would get fulfilled and so on. The only thing here is, it’s a circular reference so you need a way to break the chain. I would likely create another field

  lastModifiedBySelf

  and then check the user id on the request with the id on

  originalDoc

  , if they match set the new checkbox and clear the relationship, else set the relationship.

  
  
  

  See all arguments for beforeChange hook here

  https://payloadcms.com/docs/hooks/collections#beforechange
  

  
  

  OR, you could set

  maxDepth

  on the relationship field, probably more-so what you are looking for.

  hiii @Jarrod i tried it. if i passed depth=1 i got "lastModifiedBy": {

  
  

  "value": {

  
  

  "id": "633aa17cd6c8ab006231e6b3",

  
  

  "email": "------------",

  
  

  "createdAt": "2022-10-03T08:46:52.557Z",

  
  

  "updatedAt": "2023-03-29T10:10:27.673Z",

  
  

  "enableAPIKey": false,

  
  

  "lastModifiedBy": {

  
  

  "value": "633aa17cd6c8ab006231e6b3",

  
  

  "relationTo": "users"

  
  

  },

  
  

  "name": "Bhavika ",

  
  

  "roles": [

  
  

  "admin"

  
  

  ]

  
  

  },

  
  

  "relationTo": "users"

  
  

  }, and i save page by another user and i set depth=60 it's fullfill the user with adding new object.

  
  

  
  

  so on a each save it's adding new object
