Walkthrough

The change retires unused link controls, removes their Forms Engine registrations, normalizes plugin descriptor sections, and updates timezone and upload path handling. Documentation records the related remapping and datasource decisions.

Changes

Forms Engine cleanup and normalization

Layer / File(s) Summary
Remove legacy control registrations
studio-ui/ui/app/src/components/ContentTypeManagement/descriptors/controls/index.ts, studio-ui/ui/app/src/components/FormsEngine/dataSources/bindings.ts, studio-ui/ui/app/src/components/FormsEngine/lib/*
Removes unused link-control descriptors and their registry, binding, validator, and serializer entries.
Normalize descriptor sections
studio-ui/ui/app/src/components/ContentTypeManagement/components/EditTypeView.tsx
Preserves plugin section properties and converts missing or non-array fields values to arrays.
Correct runtime input handling
studio-ui/ui/app/src/components/DateTimeTimezonePicker/DateTimeTimezonePicker.tsx, studio-ui/ui/app/src/utils/datetime.ts, studio-ui/ui/app/src/components/FormsEngine/dataSources/moduleHelpers.ts
Avoids timezone conversion for empty values and uses the upload metadata path directly as the asset URL.
Record cleanup decisions
studio-ui/docs/type-builder-forms-engine.md
Documents control retirement, system-field remapping, datasource behavior, and completed audit items.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Mergeability Score: 🔵 Low · up to 520fd

The upload path change can produce an empty relative URL, which may cause selected uploaded assets to be silently ignored; the PR is otherwise mergeable with explicit owner awareness or follow-up for this bounded correctness risk.

180-186: 🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Do not return an asset selection without a path.

At Lines 183-185, an upload result with meta.name but no meta.path passes validation. Line 186 then returns relativeUrl: ''. ImagePicker.tsx Lines 90-122 ignores that empty path, so the upload selection is lost.

If meta.path must contain the complete filename, require it before returning:

Proposed fix
  if (candidate.meta && typeof candidate.meta === 'object') {
    const meta = candidate.meta as { path?: string; name?: string; type?: string };
-   const name = meta.name ?? (typeof candidate.name === 'string' ? candidate.name : '');
    const path = meta.path ?? '';
-   if (!path && !name) {
+   if (!path) {
      throw new Error('Unable to map data-source result to an asset selection: missing path.');
    }
    const relativeUrl = path;

@jvega190 Final review found one item before human review.

  • studio-ui/docs/type-builder-forms-engine.md, Line 344 still states that LinkedDropdown can render multiple bound list groups. This control is removed in this PR. Change the sentence to describe Dropdown only.

The active TypeScript Forms Engine has no remaining references to the removed controls. I did not find other issues in the reviewed change set.

@jvega190 I found no remaining code-level blockers in this PR.

The documentation fix is present. LinkedDropdown is no longer described as supported.

The retired control identifiers have no remaining references in active TypeScript source.

The parseConfigPlugins update is safe for missing sections and fields. asArray always returns an array.

I reviewed the Forms Engine changes against the existing studio-ui/docs/type-builder-forms-engine.md guidance.

The PR is mergeable, but GitHub still blocks merging because:

  • The PR is still marked as draft.
  • A human review is required.
  • Travis CI - Pull Request is still queued.

Mark the PR ready for review and wait for Travis CI to pass. After those conditions are met, it looks ready for human review and merge.
