How to replace the Strapi ID field with a slug field
In this video, we discuss how you can replace the Strapi findOne controller action to accept a slug instead of an id. This allows your url path slug to dictate which content is returned from Strapi and is useful when creating blogs with Strapi. This allows you to have user-friendly urls instead of having id’s in the url.
