Use the payload.find method on the client side

Describe the Bug

I'm facing an error when trying to use payload.find on the client side. I'm curious about why this method isn't supported on the client side.

Payload Version

1.15.6

Hey @jamal7887 - The payload.find method and similar methods from Payload's local API are designed to be executed within Node, directly on your server.

If you're looking to fetch or manipulate data on the client side using Payload, the recommended approach is to utilize Payload's REST or GraphQL APIs.

If you have any other questions, please let me know. I'm here to help.

Going to convert this to a discussion.
