This release introduces the foundational layer for versioning object entries within the Liferay Objects framework. Versioning allows teams to track the full lifecycle of data changes, revert entries when needed, and ensure auditability — a key requirement for organizations dealing with regulated or collaborative content.

In this first phase, the versioning capability is available exclusively via API, giving developers immediate access to version history, preview, and restore operations. A dedicated configuration in Object Admin allows administrators to enable or disable versioning per object definition.

Key Benefits:

• Versioning brings greater control and safety to object data by keeping a full history of every change. It allows teams to recover previous states, avoid data loss, and meet audit or compliance needs. With API-first access, developers can immediately start using version history, preview, and restore in their applications

This release introduces scheduling capabilities to object entries, allowing users to define when an entry should go live, expire, or be reviewed. This brings Objects closer to real content lifecycle management — similar to what already exists in Web Content — and enables automation for time-sensitive data.

With this feature, object entries can be activated or deactivated automatically based on predefined dates, and optional review dates help teams stay compliant with legal, operational, or business rules.

Key Benefits:

• Scheduling gives users more control over when content or data becomes visible, expires, or needs review — reducing manual work and improving timing accuracy. It helps teams automate recurring tasks (such as publishing promotions or removing expired assets), avoid compliance risks, and ensure content stays up to date. With built-in notifications, users are always informed of upcoming actions, making lifecycle management simpler and more reliable.

This release introduces a new configuration that allows the owner of an Object Definition to decide whether it can be used inside Form Containers in Page Builder. While objects could already be mapped to forms before, administrators now have explicit control over which objects are exposed for page-level form experiences.

This provides a governance layer that helps avoid accidental exposure of internal, sensitive, or system-bound data structures, while still allowing selected objects to participate in dynamic form experiences when desired.

Key Benefits:

• This configuration gives object definition owners full control over whether their data can be used in Page Builder forms, improving security, reducing clutter in the selector, and preventing misuse of objects that were never intended for page-level experiences. Teams can now allow only the right objects to power form-based experiences, while keeping internal or backend-only objects protected.

This release introduces a new Assignee field type for Liferay Objects, enabling entry-level ownership and task assignment. With this field, object entries can now be assigned to Users or Roles, making Objects suitable for workflow-style, task-driven, and ownership-based applications.

Once assigned, the user or role automatically gains permission to edit the entry, even if they did not previously have it explicitly. This makes it possible to build review flows, approval processes, service desks, onboarding pipelines, partner applications, and more, all using native Objects.

Key Benefits:

• The Assignee field brings native task ownership to Objects, allowing teams to build assignment-based processes with automatic permissions, "My Entries" filtering, and full API and UI support. This reduces the need for custom logic, enables clearer responsibility tracking, and unlocks use cases like approvals, case management, service requests, onboarding workflows, and more.
