I’m trying to build a beforeInsert hook on a data collection of permission type “Custom Use”, however, it seems as if this lifecycle hook is not available on this permissions type. I have all of the other lifecycle hooks available, just not this one.
Is there anyway to have this hook type available for these data collections?
Hi Jamie,
I have tried it and Before Insert hook is available on all permission types:
If you still don’t see it, pls send a link to your site so I can check why.
Thanks,
Asaf
Hi Jamie,
The issue you are having is not because of the permission type. It is because you can’t add any write-type hooks as it is an app collection (app collection is a collection that was automatically added when you added Stores or any other vertical to your site).
You might think of writing the code in the submit button of a new stores transaction event handler. I don’t know your use case so I cannot be sure this solution is right for you.
