References

Use reference fields when you need to establish relations between collections. For example, you may have a product that is related to one category, or one that has multiple purchases.

When you set up a FireCMS app, you define collections under paths (or path aliases), and those are the paths that you use to configure reference properties.

Single reference field

import { buildProperty } from "@firecms/core";

buildProperty({
    dataType: "reference",
    path: "users",
    name: "Related client",
});

The data type is reference

Internally the component used is ReferenceFieldBinding.

Multiple reference field

import { buildProperty } from "@firecms/core";

buildProperty({
    dataType: "array",
    name: "Related products",
    of: {
        dataType: "reference",
        path: "products"
    }
});

The data type is array with a reference property as the of prop.

Internally the component used is ArrayOfReferencesFieldBinding.
