APIDrift

Monitor Prisma ORM releases, schema changes, and engine updates

Track Prisma releases before a migration breaks your database queries

APIDrift tracks Prisma releases from the prisma/prisma GitHub repository daily, catching query engine behavior changes, schema language updates, and client API modifications. Prisma sits between your application and your database, so engine updates can subtly change query behavior for nullable relations, alter findUnique() validation, and modify error handling. These changes are especially dangerous because they affect data integrity and can go undetected until users report wrong values.

Prisma query engine updates can subtly change how your database queries behave

Prisma sits between your application code and your database. Engine version bumps can change query behavior, alter relation loading, and modify error handling. Schema language changes can require migration adjustments. These changes are especially dangerous because they affect data integrity.

“Prisma 5 changed the default query behavior for nullable relations. Our API started returning null where it used to throw an error. We had data consistency issues for a week before a user reported wrong account balances.”

Breaking

v6.0.0: findUnique() on non-unique fields now throws instead of returning first match

Using findUnique() with a where clause on non-unique fields will now throw a PrismaClientValidationError. Use findFirst() instead for non-unique lookups.

Deprecation

v5.20.0: Deprecated interactiveTransactions preview feature — now GA

The interactiveTransactions preview feature flag is deprecated. Interactive transactions are now enabled by default. Remove the preview flag from your schema.prisma.

This is a static preview — not live data.
