Extensions Api Internals

Using Directus Internals

To access systems like permission checks and your collections, you can use internal Directus services, available through an API extension's context parameter.

Error Handling

To create errors in API extensions, you can utilize the @directus/errors package which is available to all extensions without installation.

import { createError, ForbiddenError } from '@directus/errors';

const CustomError = createError('CUSTOM', 'This is a custom error.', 418);

throw new ForbiddenError();
throw new CustomError();
