Directus Postgres schema changes require a multi-phase workflow that enforces pre-task snapshots, paired migration scripts with down migrations, and explicit approval gates before applying any modifications. This ensures safe, auditable database updates with diff verification.

Managing Directus database migrations involves generating and validating pre/post task snapshots, creating diff reports, and pairing migration scripts with down migrations. The workflow mandates user consultation for structural changes and explicit acceptance before applying updates.

Yes, pre-task database dumps are strictly required before running Directus Postgres data migrations. The mandated workflow enforces snapshot-before-change discipline to ensure you can verify diffs and safely rollback using paired down migrations if needed.

No, Directus schema changes cannot bypass the mandatory consultation and approval gates. The workflow requires explicit user acceptance before applying any structural modifications to ensure safe, auditable database updates with proper diff verification.

Diff verification for Directus Postgres changes works by generating and validating pre-task and post-task snapshots, then comparing them to create detailed diff reports. This process ensures schema changes, data migrations, and snapshot edits are auditable and safe.

Directus database migrations require down migrations to provide safe rollback paths for schema changes and data migrations. This paired approach ensures auditable database updates by allowing you to reverse modifications if diff verification or post-task snapshots reveal issues.
