Modify the dashboard interface.

In the future, will it be possible to add it to the interface in the dashboard. For example, adding a leaderboard page on the site. Of course, you can implement all this on your frontend, but you want the site to be clean without administrative access for ordinary people. example idea code ```ts <convex/dashboard.[ts,js,mjs]>...

How to assign types created with convex/values to function parameters?

Performance testing and credentials from FS

Has anyone done performance testing of Convex? What is the expected system response for medium complexity of mutation? What is maximum TPS? I could not find any information on that topic anywhere. Do you know any significant financial services institution that is using Convex on production? Specifically I am interested if the system ever went through detailed security assessment....

Convex in deno workspace/monorepos

Hi, we're just looking into deno as a potential solution to simplify our typescript monorepo/npm workspace. Is anyone using convex with deno? If so, what's the recommended way of setting things up e.g. what's the recommended way of running convex dev? Is there a way to do this with a deno.json or do we need to keep things npm-based with a package.json?...

Error deploying to Vercel

I built my app using the Remix quickstart code from the docs, added Clerk for auth, and everything works fine locally. When deploying to Vercel per the Convex docs, however, it just generates a ton of errors. First on the list—and likely what's causing the rest—is ConvexReactClient requires a URL like 'https://happy-otter-123.convex.cloud'. I found other posts about this and manually added VITE_CONVEX_URL to the environment variables in the Vercel project settings (not mentioned in the docs, BTW), but it's still failing. Attached are screenshots of my Vercel config....

LLamaindex package: External packages in convex.json doesn't work

I want to use the llamaindex package to parse documents with their parser model. However, this model also includes a VectorStoreIndex that is used in conjuction with openAI to create embeddings and store it in the llamacloud database. As I don't have access to openAI (based in Hong Kong) and I want to keep using convex for vector search, I don't use this functionality. But I believe there are the reason for the error below. I put "use node" at the top of the file and inserted the packages that errored my build to the node.externalPackages convex.json file. But I still get the same errors. Any clue on what that could be? The pg packages must be used for their vector database which I don't use....

Importing a snapshot during deploy stored on s3

Hi, my snapshot is now above 100mb. This means I can no longer commit it to github. Is there a way to tell the deploy command npx convex import --preview-name "$VERCEL_GIT_COMMIT_REF" ./data/mock-data/snapshot.zip during a deploy to tell it to grab the file from a remote resource, like an s3 bucket? What are workarounds for large snapshots that can't be commited to a repo?

Validate a user during the auth step

I'm working on a personal app (i.e. nobody else should use it but me), and the easiest way I could think of to launch it is to deploy it online (e.g. Vercel) and use auth to prevent anyone but me from using it. I added Convex Auth to the app code yesterday, configured to use GitHub, and that part works fine. Once the auth phase is complete, I can look at the user details, see whether or not it's me, and just not render anything if it's some other GitHub user. However, is there a way to restrict any other GitHub user from even completing the auth phase? For example, GitHub verifies that someone has a GitHub account, but compares that against a list that I provide to only allow select users (e.g. me) to complete the rest of the auth. I'm likely going to face a similar challenge in the future when adding auth to an app that I'll be creating for work. It should only be usable by company employees, and the company emails are all run through a Google workspace, so I was thinking of using Google auth to verify our users and only allow those with emails from our workspace/domain to access the app. However, I have a similar question about a mid-phase verification. For example, the Google auth page loads and a user picks their Google account that they'd like to use to log in. What I'd ideally like to do is prevent the password entry from even appearing if their email isn't on our domain....

Hi all, I tried to upgrade the convex dependency from v1.16.0 but both newer versions 1.16.1 and 1.16.2 throws this weird export error when running codegen or dev commands. I scanned my convex directory and I don't see any warnings or errors from eslint....

Can't correctly type fields from a table to my NextTS application

This is more of a pure TS question than Convex, but at least it originates from the types of one of my convex function definitions. I'm getting this type error when trying to build my project (been fixing them by the dozens as we get ready for deployment) : ```Type error: Type 'ReactMutation<FunctionReference<"mutation", "public", { id: Id<"documents">; orgId: string | null; storageId: Id<"_storage">; }, null, string | undefined>>' is not assignable to type '(params: { id: XOR<Id<"documents">, Id<"vendors">, Id<"contracts">, Id<"riskAssessments">>; orgId?: string | null | undefined; storageId?: string | undefined; }) => Promise<...>'. Types of parameters 'args' and 'params' are incompatible. Type '{ id: XOR<Id<"documents">, Id<"vendors">, Id<"contracts">, Id<"riskAssessments">>; orgId?: string | null | undefined; storageId?: string | undefined; }' is not assignable to type '{ id: Id<"documents">; orgId: string | null; storageId: Id<"_storage">; }'.

Snapshot import without ID

Hit an error while importing:

I have cloned the convex-auth-example chat app

There is one problem, while running locally, I can't sign in with a password, at first it shows there is no JWT_PRIVATE_KEY but the data is stored in the database. Then I added JWT_PRIVATE_KEY in .env at convex. Now if I sign in with a password, it shows this error,
