feat(tables): preview referenced rows and warn on referenced deletes by j15z · Pull Request #7106 · simstudioai/sim

j15z · 2026-08-26T17:17:43Z

Summary

Reference cells show the target table's name as a chip and open the referenced row inline
One batched name request covers every Reference column on a table; the preview loads the referenced schema and row together, so no placeholder content flashes
Deleting a table that other tables reference is allowed. The table, bulk, and folder delete dialogs warn "Reference columns in … will point to a missing table" so users know which tables are affected
References to a deleted table resolve as not found: the chip falls back to "Referenced table" and the preview shows "Table not found". Restoring the table brings them back
Earlier revisions blocked deleting referenced tables (reference-graph scans, cohort archive/restore, folder retry waves). That is removed in favor of the warning
Workspace fork copies referenced tables and rewrites references to the copies; a reference to a deleted table is kept as-is instead of failing the fork
One registry accessor answers which tables a column references — the grid, preview, delete warning, fork remapping, and schema validation all read it, so a second referencing column type is one registry entry
Chips, name lookups, previews, and the warning all sit behind the Reference columns flag from feat(tables): add reference columns #7105
Builds on feat(tables): add reference columns #7105

Type of Change

New feature

Testing

Tested manually in the browser: table-page, list, bulk, and folder delete dialogs; the live preview; and the preview after deleting the referenced table
Table, folder, fork, preview, and query-hook suites: 33 files, 577 tests
bun run type-check, bun run lint, bun run check:audits (45 audits), bun run check:react-query, bun run check:client-boundary

Renders reference values as table-name chips that open an inline row preview.
Adds batched table-name lookup and reference-preview query support.
Preserves reference integrity across copying, archive and restore, row mutation, and bulk deletion.
Consolidates bulk-delete reference-graph scanning and rejects unsupported cycles.

Confidence Score: 5/5

The PR appears safe to merge.

No blocking failure remains.

Confidence score: 4/5

In cell-render.tsx, double-clicking a reference chip can also trigger the cell’s inline edit mode after opening the preview, creating conflicting interactions; stop dblclick propagation on the chip to match URL cell behavior.

Chat and Home render the table grid inline, so the preview component, its query module, the referenced-by warning hook and the referrers lookup land in their graphs too — five modules the feature genuinely ships, not a barrel dragging code in. Only the three entries this branch actually grows are re-recorded; the rest keep their existing numbers. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
