Convex Dashboard erroneously prevents Save in Edit Document UX
Observed Behavior:
Edit document panel shows disabled Save button with a validation message: Please fix the errors above to continue".
Steps to reproduce:
1) RIght click and invoke the menu button
2) Click Edit document
Workaround:
1) the error goes away if you type a valid number
2) Double Click a column and manually type there without invoking the menu button
Expected behavior:
Is Convex dashboard really not going to let me update the picUrl manually, because deleted_at is undefined?
The Edit Document behavior should allow an edit.
We acknowledge undefined is not a type in convex, but it's used to delete data. https://docs.convex.dev/database/types
unset data is typeof undefined.
v.Optional in convex does not work for the null type
So, There is some incompatibility somewhere.
