# fields.assets()

Multiple asset references, optionally restricted by kind.

Multiple asset references. Maps to editor `{ name: 'str-assets', type: 'assets' }`. Output is `Asset[]` — the canonical asset shape from `@strifeapp/types`.

## Example

```ts
fields.assets({
  label: 'Gallery',
  accept: ['image/*', 'video/*'],
  size: 12,
})
```

## Options

| Option         | Type                                     | Required | Description                                                 |
| -------------- | ---------------------------------------- | -------- | ----------------------------------------------------------- |
| `label`        | `string`                                 | Yes      | Label shown to editors in Strife Studio.                    |
| `description`  | `string`                                 | No       | Tooltip shown to editors.                                   |
| `searchable`   | `boolean`                                | No       | Include in the team's search index.                         |
| `filterable`   | `boolean`                                | No       | Allow filtering content lists by this value.                |
| `protected`    | `boolean`                                | No       | Restrict editing to users with the appropriate permission.  |
| `propertyName` | `string`                                 | No       | Override the stored property name.                          |
| `accept`       | `('image/*' \| 'video/*' \| 'file/*')[]` | No       | Restrict pickable assets to these kinds. Omit to allow all. |
| `size`         | `number \| null`                         | No       | Maximum number of assets.                                   |

> [!NOTE]
> Only the wildcard form (`'image/*'`, `'video/*'`, `'file/*'`) is accepted today — that's a deliberate placeholder for full MIME-type matching (`'image/jpeg'`, `'document/pdf'`, etc.), which the wire format doesn't support yet. At compile time each wildcard is translated to the numeric code the asset picker actually checks (`image/* → 1`, `video/* → 2`, `file/* → 3`) — there is no string-based filtering on the wire, only these three categories.

No `localizable` option.

## Output type

`Asset[]`.
