Which Specific Feature is your question related to?

Data Manager

Question

Does Data Manager let me edit my instances' custom fields without editing raw JSON?

When I attempt to edit any of my custom types fields on any models, I am now given a single field with raw JSON. My team's workflow used the previous dropdown format for custom fields and was 10x faster and less prone to error than this new form setup.

Hey @foobarnes, thank you for reaching out. Could you let us know the errors you are currently experiencing in data manager?

additionally, Amplify Studio allows switching to the older version of the Data manager. We can do this by replacing the URL path from /data-manager to /content.

Not errors, so much as a lack of functionality. I have defined custom types for certain models and was using Amplify Studio as a quick admin tool to modify certain model instances. I used to be able to quickly modify these custom fields (with drop-downs, separated subfield inputs, boolean toggles, etc), but now only get raw JSON fields.
