# url
url adds an editable URL field to the schema.
TIP
Apostrophe will detect common mistakes, like leaving off http://, and add them. Common XSS attack vectors are laundered and discarded. Only "safe" URL schemes, e.g. http, https, ftp and mailto, are permitted.
# Example
{
name: 'portfolio',
label: 'Portfolio URL',
type: 'url'
}
