āš ļø Changes to be aware of

Required media and relations: opt-in strictRelations

New config api.documents.strictRelations enforces required media and relations on publish (drafts can still be empty). On by default for new projects; existing apps are unchanged until you set it. To opt in, set documents.strictRelations: true in config/api. (#27028)

Empty multiple media / morphMany now returns []

Populated empty morphMany relations (including type: 'media', multiple: true) serialize as [] instead of null, matching other to-many relations. This is unconditional and not gated by strictRelations. If clients, webhooks, or integrations check field === null for empty galleries / morphMany, treat [] as empty instead (e.g. !field?.length). (#27090)
