Summary

This PR resolves transactional consistency and error propagation issues in Appsmith server services and workflows:

  1. Action Collection Child Action Error Propagation (Fixes actioncollections: archiveGivenActionCollection swallows child action errors - orphaned NewAction documents accumulate in MongoDB #42116): Previously, archiveGivenActionCollection and deleteUnpublishedActionCollection swallowed child action errors with .onErrorResume(throwable -> Mono.empty()) while proceeding to archive the parent ActionCollection. This caused failed child actions to remain as orphaned NewAction documents in MongoDB. Removed silent error suppression to preserve atomicity and surface deletion errors.
  2. Application Resource Deletion Transactional Integrity (Fixes application: deleteApplicationResources TransactionalOperator injected but never applied - server kill mid-delete leaves ghost application record #42117): deleteApplicationResources in ApplicationPageServiceCEImpl executes multi-step async archival across actions, pages, themes, and application metadata. The injected TransactionalOperator was previously unbound, leaving the possibility of corrupted ghost application records if the server was terminated mid-deletion. Applied .as(transactionalOperator::transactional) to guarantee atomic deletion.
  3. Multi-Issue Close Labeler Workflow Iteration (Fixes close-labeler workflow uses break instead of continue, dropping the QA label on multi-issue PRs #41983): In .github/workflows/close-labeler.yml, replaced premature break with continue when iterating over pull request closing issue references so all eligible closing issues receive the QA label.

Changes

  • app/server/appsmith-server/src/main/java/com/appsmith/server/actioncollections/base/ActionCollectionServiceCEImpl.java: Removed silent error swallowing during child action deletion in action collections.
  • app/server/appsmith-server/src/main/java/com/appsmith/server/services/ce/ApplicationPageServiceCEImpl.java: Bound transactionalOperator to deleteApplicationResources.
  • app/server/appsmith-server/src/test/java/com/appsmith/server/services/ActionCollectionServiceTest.java: Added unit test coverage for action collection error propagation.
  • app/server/appsmith-server/src/test/java/com/appsmith/server/services/ApplicationPageServiceTest.java: Added unit test coverage for atomic application resource deletion.
  • .github/workflows/close-labeler.yml: Changed break to continue in closing issue loop.

Verification

  • Verified reactive stream error handling and transactional operator application.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Issue labeling during closure now processes all labels across multiple pages, helping ensure eligible issues are labeled correctly.
    • Errors encountered while deleting or archiving action collections are now surfaced instead of being silently ignored.
    • Application resource deletion now runs as a single transaction, preventing partial deletions when a later operation fails.

Walkthrough

The workflow now paginates issue labels and handles per-issue failures. Action collection child-operation errors now propagate. Application resource deletion now uses the configured transaction operator. Tests verify error propagation and rollback.

Changes

Release issue labeling

Layer / File(s) Summary
Paginated issue label processing
.github/workflows/close-labeler.yml
The workflow disables job token permissions, retrieves labels across pages, skips label-fetch failures, and logs label-application failures.

Child action deletion and archival errors now propagate instead of becoming empty results. Tests verify that parent persistence does not occur after child failure.

Application resource deletion now runs through TransactionalOperator. The test verifies rollback when a later resource deletion fails.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 26d9c

The change propagates child-operation failures, makes application deletion transactional, and ensures qualifying closing issues are labeled across pagination. No concrete merge-blocking risk remains.

Poem

Labels cross each page,
Child errors leave the stage.
Transactions hold the line,
Tests confirm the rollback sign,
Deletions now align.

first: 10 excludes eligible closing issues after the first ten. Add cursor pagination until hasNextPage is false. Also, github.rest.issues.addLabels returns a promise, but the script discards it. Await each request so the script waits for label updates and propagates failures.

Test the failure path instead of service initialization.

This test only checks that actionCollectionService is injected. It passes even when child archival errors are swallowed and the parent collection is archived. Create a child-action failure, assert that the returned Mono fails, and verify that the parent archive is not called. Add equivalent coverage for deleteUnpublishedActionCollection.
