# Directory

Source: [Directory](https://typeroll.com/docs/apps/directory/)

> Passwordless, self-service editing for businesses and other entities listed in a Typeroll collection.

* **Type:** Core module
* **Build impact:** Contributes forms and republishes edited listing content
* **Authentication:** Single-use, time-limited links

Directory lets an entity listed in a collection request a private edit link and correct its own data without creating an account. The link is sent only to the email address already stored on that listing.

## Configuration

[Section titled “Configuration”](https://typeroll.com/docs/apps/directory/#configuration)

| Field               | Purpose                                                |
| ------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------ |
| Listings collection | Collection containing the directory records            |
| Contact email field | Existing field that may receive an edit link           |
| Link lifetime       | Validity period for issued links, capped at seven days |

The module seeds two ordinary Typeroll forms: one to request a link and one to edit the listing. Sites may extend those forms using the normal form editor.

## Write boundaries

[Section titled “Write boundaries”](https://typeroll.com/docs/apps/directory/#write-boundaries)

An edit session is bound to one listing. It can update only collection fields whose write policy permits owner writes. Requests for an unrelated email address do not reveal whether a listing exists, and enabling the module is what opens its public endpoints.

Directory builds on general platform primitives: collection field authority, prefill sources, form actions, passwordless sessions, and coalesced deploys. Only the listing-specific workflow belongs to the module.
