I was looking around the Ideas in the Community and I've noticed that so many great well-voted ideas were not done, even though they were 2010. This is a kind demotivating... OutSystems should give at least a feedback and close these items, as they will not consider them.
[Ideas] Outsystems feedback to Community Ideas
[Ideas] Add built-in GUID function
[Ideas] Create an Integration with e-Fatura (PT)
Create an Integration REST to consume the data of the e-Fatura portal (https://faturas.portaldasfinancas.gov.pt/) to check all invoices on the portal by date.
[Ideas] Icon of default Entry Point
I would like to have a differentiation of the default Entry Point icon, so that I do not have to go looking for the Is Default property one by one.
[Forums] Cannot I use the outcome of a json serialize in a aggregate
it seems to work but it takes now a long long time that a user sees the page.
any hints why ?
[Forums] Using powers or exponents in aggregate
wrote:
Hi Daniel,
Would it be an option to save the numbers as-is and use a function to format them in the expressions where you show the data?
Hi Glenn,
that's what I ended up doing in the end: store the number in a local, then go through the formatting process of dividing it by the right base 10 value then appending the E and the exponent... took more work than needed but it worked
[Ideas] Add OutSystems exam certificates to LinkedIn
The idea is to make OutSystems certificates LinkedIn compatible...
With Official IDs and URLs so that they can be acknowledged and validated in LinkedIn profiles.
Benefit:
- More Outsystems exposure in professional circles
- Easier for companies to find relevant qualified professionals
[Ideas] Copying eSpace elements to another eSpace, allow the copy of dependency elements.
As a developer I was copying elements from eSpaces to other eSpaces, when refactoring parts of applications.
When copiyng screens, not all dependent elements were copied. Screens had dependencies of actions, structures, entities, site properties, session variables, and other, that I had to copy one by one.
For repeated actions as this one, would be a nice idea to have a popup asking if I would like to copy all dependent elements as well.
This would allow development and refactoring tasks even faster. These are not daily tasks but they are done quite often.
[Ideas] Open .oap without Publishing it
If it is already possible, I could not manage to do it.
Any way, would be nice to open whole application (.opa) files without having to publish it on your environment .
Sometimes we download examples or how-to's directly from Forge just to see how it was made, and we can't open it as we do with e-spaces.
Usually I rename the extension to .zip to open only the e-spaces I want to see.
Would be nice if service studio let you do it, by opening or giving the choice to open the e-spaces individually.
[Ideas] Code that's commented out should be shown as Warning in TrueChange tab
Since a while (P11) it's possible to comment out code. Which is great, for development and testing. However, except for special circumstances, you shouldn't want to keep that code around forever. Therefore TrueChange should give a warning showing the location and ideally with the date/time and name of whoever commented that code, so it's easy to prune the "comments" when it's time to release the module.
[Ideas] Review Date Picker UI Pattern
I'm using the Outsystems v11 and we are having some issues with the date picker widget:
1- Does not allow null dates.
2- Format date doesn't work
3- Does not allow time selection.
We want to stop using rich widgets but the date picker does not meet our needs.
So what I am proposing is that you either change the date picker or create a Date Time Picker so we can "kill" the calendar widget.
[Ideas] Test an Action like "Test query" (for unit testing)
Be able to create a unit test for a Server / Service / Client (?) / Screen (?) action that shall be executed without developer intervention, for regression purposes.
[Ideas] Dropdown Displaying value
It will be great to can Get the Displaying value(Text Displayed) for the dropdown as in asp.net instead creating new aggregate to get the value by the selected ID
[Ideas] Embedded Integration with AWS.
Hello to all,
[Ideas] Change Hostname when generating mobile application
Have the possibility to change the hostname when generating a mobile app, without changing the hostname of the environment itself. It would be easier to generate mobile appication build in an environment using the internal zone.
[Ideas] SQL Function
On some projects I'm facing the need to maintain a piece of SQL that I share accross some queries and espaces, or even to create code that Its still not supported by current SQL Server version (SQL string split for instance).
Would be really nice to be able to create a SQL function directly from the platform, where we can reference our own tables.
Example how to create it:
How it could look like:
Best regards
[Ideas] Entity Properties - Set Default Sort for Order By
This limits the entity configuration, since many times an entity must be sort descending and not ascending.
[Ideas] Put the release version numbers in the Release Notes page
To discover which is the version number of the Platform Server Release, Sep. 2018 CP1...
I have to go to the "Download Search" page:
Why not include the version number inside the release notes?
[Forums] Record list not selectable for local variable
I am running Windows 10. I will try using DataPoint from List and see if that works. Thanks for the quick response!
