@timber hamlet @quasi bramble @tardy lodge can you share the code you're trying to run exactly?

sorry this one slipped through the cracks 😬

on my end i'm just trying to import the validate functions that payload uses.
for example calling this in the validate function:

// i want to use number
const numberError = number(val, options);

I was trying to import { text } from 'payload/fields/validations'

thanks, will check on the export of those functions

yeah something is not right in there, will open an issue
in the meantime this should work if you need something sooner

import { number, text } from 'payload/dist/fields/validations'
