Strapi Integration in Manchester

Connecting Strapi to Manchester applications, where the permissions configuration decides what the world can read. Endpoints are controlled per content type and per action, and the common mistake is opening what the front end needs without checking what else that role now reaches — including drafts and fields intended for internal use.

Why this comes up

The problem

Public read access was enabled for a content type, and it is returning draft entries alongside published ones.

What you get

What we deliver

  • Public role permissions granted per content type rather than broadly
  • Draft and published states handled, so unpublished content is not served
  • Field-level exposure checked, since internal fields are returned by default
  • API tokens used for authenticated access with the narrowest scope needed
  • Populate and filtering used deliberately, as relations are not returned by default
  • Rate limiting and caching applied, since the CMS is now on the request path

Strapi Integration in Manchester — common questions

What is easy to expose accidentally?
Fields nobody meant to publish. A content type opened for public read returns its fields, including internal notes, editorial flags or anything added for workflow — so reviewing what a public request actually returns is worth doing before launch.
How are drafts handled?
Through the publication state, which has to be respected in the query. A front end fetching without specifying it can receive unpublished entries, which is the sort of thing discovered when an editor's work-in-progress appears on the live site.
Why do relations need populating?
Because they are omitted by default. A request for an article returns the article without its author or category unless the query asks for them, which surprises teams expecting nested data — and over-populating returns far more than the page needs.
Does the CMS need caching?
If it serves the front end at request time, yes. It is now a dependency of every page view, so caching responses or generating statically protects both performance and the CMS itself from load it was not sized for.
Do you work with businesses across Greater Manchester?
Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout North West, including Manchester and the surrounding Greater Manchester area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
What kind of Manchester businesses do you usually work with?
Demand is competitive and design-led — clients here are benchmarking against well-funded local products and expect the same standard. Beyond that we work across Digital & Tech, Media, Financial Services, Life Sciences and Hospitality.
Do you cover the areas around Manchester?
Yes — we work throughout North West, including Liverpool, Leeds, Sheffield. Manchester is an urban area of roughly 2,800,000+, and we take on work across the wider Greater Manchester region rather than the city boundary alone.
