What's new in Strapi 5 docs?

Strapi 5 brings many new features and improvements, and this page quickly highlights the most important documentation changes.

🧑‍🎨 The Draft & Publish feature has been fully reworked. When Draft & Publish is enabled, the Content Manager edit view shows 2 different tabs, one for the draft version and one for the published version, and both can handle different content.

🧙‍♀️ The new Content History feature allows you to view and restore previous versions of your content from the Content Manager.

🧑‍🏫 Strapi 5 now use documents and introduces a new Document Service API to replace the Entity Service API from v4, leveraging the new Draft & Publish system and paving the way for more upcoming features.

🕵️ The REST API and GraphQL API have been updated, with a simplified response data format for both and partial support for Relay-style queries for GraphQL.

👩‍🚀 The Plugin SDK is a new CLI tool that helps you develop and publish Strapi plugins.

🦾 Another whole new CLI upgrade tool will help you migrate to any patch, minor, and major version of Strapi, automating most of the common tasks through codemods.

👷 Also, we have some resources ready to help you upgrade to Strapi 5, including a step-by-step guide, a list of breaking changes and specific resources to read for when you will consider upgrading to Strapi 5.

👀 There are much more content updates: new or updated pages are identified in the table of contents with new badgenew badge or updated badgeupdated badge badges.

🏷️ We introduced a new tagging system to provide another layer of information architecture. Tags can be found at the bottom of each page. Clicking on a tag will point you to an index page listing all pages with the same tag. The list of all available tags is visible by visiting the /tags page.

➕ You will also soon find more official guides and more references to external resources (contributor documentation, design system documentation, and blog articles) throughout the docs pages.

🤖 Also, last but not least, you might have noticed that the search bar in the top navigation bar now combines 2 buttons: the left button, 🔎 Search, triggers a regular search, while the right part is our new AI-based chatbot! Click Ask AI to ask your questions. The chatbot keeps the context of previous answers, so you can ask follow-up questions as long as you don't close the chatbot window.
