We have Ctrl-D for deleting a variable+value pair from an assignment, but I'm often in want of a copy/paste option as well, or alternatively a drag/drop for a single assignment pair. Currently, I need to copy/paste the variable and value seperately.

[Ideas] Allow Integration Studio to connect to Visual Code rather than Visual Studio
Visual Studio only comes in a free community version, which is not always allowed at enterprise customers. If they do not already have Visual Studio, it would be nice if the integration studio could open the project in Visual Code.
That way Integration Studio could also be made to work on Mac as Visual Code also works on Mac.

[Ideas] Add number line in the Test Output area of an Advanced SQL
As the title says, i would like to see the line number in the left side of the Test Output area after testing a query in the Advanced SQL action. I think this could be usefull while debugging.
Thank you.

UPDATED: I notice that the filter is working...
Thanks in advance,

[Ideas] Allow to import more than one image to the image folder
When we have to import multiple images, for example, 100 for css purposes we have to import these images one by one. It would be nice if we could select multiple images when importing them.

[Ideas] Support "static entities" in mobile app, as offline data
When developing mobile app, you can use static entitities.
However they are not available if your application is running offline.
Most mobile apps we develop are based on offline first principal, making usage of static entitities useless.

[Ideas] Display a list of tags to apply when adding a new post in the forum.
As a fairly new user I am unsure what to tag my POSTS as I have yet become really familiar with the terminology OutSystems uses.
Thanks, Brad
EDIT: Yoohoo!!!! I got a badge for my first idea! I'd like to thank all the little people that helped me get here :)

[Ideas] Session variables equivalent for Mobile Apps
We need some kind of Global Variable for Mobile apps to store Session Data that can be shared across multiple screens. I tried using a Local entity but it appears you can use Local Aggregates in Client Functions.

[Ideas] Certifications Digital Badges
OutSystems is a nice platform and has a great portal providing so many diverse features under the same hood, but having an option to share the candidates' credentials, certifications with the entire professional or social network is missing.
There are few famous platforms like Acclaim (by Credly/Pearson), Exin and CertMetrics (by Alpine) who provide candidates resume-worthy verified achievements to unlock opportunities and at the same time respect the issuer brand. These platforms are designed to allow a candidate easily and efficiently manage and share professional achievements. Individuals can share his/her badges with potential employers with the details of what this certification means to their business.
The biggest value for a candidate is they can showcase all their certifications (OutSystems or non-OutSystems) at one public profile with an option to choose which information they want to share and which not [, making it fully GDPR compliant :) ].

[Ideas] Food and basic goods delivery
This is a project aimed for Portugal, in a first phase, but which can be extended to other countries.
It is just an idea and I count on the support of this forum to make it grow and solve the challenges!
Vision
Enable and manage the delivery of food and basic goods, in the form of a basket, to people who are more prone to be infected with coronavirus, already has coronavirus or is in quarantine.
Personas
Hypermarkets
Volunteer to indicate beneficiaries and transport basket delivery
Use cases
Registration of Hypermarkets
- Responsible for creating the baskets
Registration of Volunteers
- Responsible for collection and delivery to the beneficiaries respective addresses
Registration of beneficiaries
- Registration will be done by the volunteer who indicates a family that meets the conditions to be a beneficiary
Challenges
- How to check if the family should be considered to benefit?
- Definition of the basket. Should we have multiple types with different prices?
- Online payments (only).
- How to deliver safely?
User Stories (draft)
US1 - Registration of Volunteers
- With facebook or google and with indication of the area of residence to define a range of action
- Indication of the hours available to make deliveries
US2 - Registration of Hypermarkets
- As OutSystems has a close relationship with Continente hypermarkets, it would be easier to articulate with them in a first phase
US3 - Registration of Beneficiaries
- This registration must be done by the Volunteers through their account.
- Indication of name, address, number of people in the household
US4 - Task assignment to the Volunteer
- At the end of each day, generate a route for the volunteer, which should be done the next day.
US5 - Task completion
- The beneficiary must indicate that he received the basket.
I hope that this helps to understand the idea and that it can grow with the support of everyone.
Thanks!

[Ideas] Parameterize SilkUI Modals to Support Multiple Modals
If I have more than 1 modal on a page, I have to surround the modals in ifs, ajax refresh a surrounding container, and then call toggleModal. This allows me to control which modal is being displayed.
The idea is to add a parameter to toggleModal that takes a widget id so that pages with multiple modals can fire the specific modal that they need.
Thoughts?

[Ideas] Forge components approval
To improve Forge quality, which in my opinion is decreasing day by day, OutSystems should moderate all the new components submissions.
Instead of being instantly available after submission, they should wait for someone from OutSystems to check them and approve.
This would avoid the submission of tests, spam, exploits, redundant components, etc.

[Ideas] Warning usage of system function GetUserId() without a session
Currently the system function GetUserId() can be used anywhere from screen logic to server actions and Processes/Timers. The issue is when using this function inside a server action/logic that is called on a timer/BPT and it will be null.
When using a server action that uses the function GetUserId() inside display a warning to let the developer know that this will be null.

[Ideas] Add warning when using aggregates results that were not executed
Hi,
As I currently discovered the aggregate is “created“ at the beginning of the action. So, the "result" is available even before it is executed or even if it is never executed. It will just be empty if you try to use, as it was not executed.
It can lead to undesired behavior if accidentally assign aggregate result in the wrong scope... It would be helpful to have a warning for such situation that the result of the aggregate will not yet be available.

[Ideas] COVID-19 | Wall Breaker App - Healing in times of social distancing
The Context
Apart from the global lockdowns and restrictions, the social and economic consequences, we must not forget that the Covid-19 pandemic - first of all - has a very direct and significant impact on the lives of those infected, their families and friends.
These people need support – from healthcare professionals, but also from each other. Having a support group with the same collective experience, where one can share the pains, the challenges, but also the solutions and wins - is a recognized method for improving physical and mental health, and the rationale behind every survivor / support group.
In the present context, live in-person meetings are an impossibility – yet technology allows us to break down these walls and bridge the distance between each other – this is where the Wall Breaker App comes in.
The Concept
This concept is called: Wall Breaker App
This App would function both as a social network and a resource center, as a social network / support group it would allow for the creation of profiles based on the impact Covid had on the user (infected, cured, family member, dead) and the interaction with other users, along different lines:
- Anonymous Chat with other users. The system pairs users in anonymous mode, allowing them to chat and share whatever information they want – the users can choose to add each other to a “Friend Group”, so they can pursue contact at any time (a broader, public profile will then be shared if this option is selected).
- Friend Chat – individual or group chat with member of the “Friend Group” List.
- Guided Chat / Counselling – along the lines of in-person support groups, with an admin / moderator that guides and moves the conversation forward with therapeutic goals.
As a resource center – the App would allow the access to curated scientific articles, classes or workshops about guided meditation, mindfulness, nutrition, physical and mental exercise, with the overarching goal of informing and improving the physical and psychological health of the users. It would also allow the access to healthcare professionals that could provide assistance to those in need of a more specialized and in-depth counseling.
In a lighter note, the App could incorporate a “Fun and Games” feature where the user’s profile is integrated with existing online games (chess, snooker, etc.), providing some entertainment within the community.
The Value
- Public Health - the health impact of the Covid-19 virus goes beyond the respiratory system. Mental and emotional health should be a major concern as people are forced to deal with isolation, sickness and grief in a massive scale. This App can contribute to mitigate these consequences of the pandemic.
- Social Impact – having a support group (albeit a digital one) can contribute to alleviate symptoms of stress and isolation, reducing the effects of these negative stimuli and reinforcing social connections; having a society with more empowered and united individuals will prove important in the post-Covid landscape.
The Challenges
- Integration with healthcare professionals for the resource center and guided chats / counselling.
- Content creation and oversight for the resource center.
- Integration with public or private healthcare institutions in case a deeper intervention is needed for particular cases.
Extension Possibilities / Other Applications
The logic behind a “Digital Support Group” is transversal to many different areas of intervention and this App could easily be repurposed and applied in many different fields focused on improving the health and well-being of the users (trauma survivors, chronic patients, addiction treatment, etc.)
Technical Features
This solution will be divided in three working areas: the mobile app, the web app and the Backoffice web app:
- Wall Breaker mobile and web app – both the mobile and web app of this solution have similar features, being the device used to accessed them the only variable, similarly to what happens on a social network platform. They are used by the affected users of the pandemic, the moderators of the Guided Chats and the healthcare professionals of the resource center, with each type of user having access to different features and screens.
- Backoffice web app - platform only accessible by people with a Technical Support/ Administrator role and where the platform’s health is managed. Some of the features of this Backoffice are:
- Users management
- Roles management
- Content management included in the resource center
The Team
We are a team of professionals from the OutSystems partner: Outfit – Tailored Agile Solutions, aiming to give our contribution to mitigate the public health, social and economic impacts and consequences of the Covid-19 crisis in our society in both short and long term.

[Ideas] Fast access to dependencies by shortcuts in dependent modules
In large environments the dependencies take a good time for loading once it always load everything from all dependent and non-dependent modules.
It would be faster to developers if could have some shortcuts or partial loading of the dependencies such as:
- Option to refresh all used dependencies at all, without load them all and access the pop-up dependency dialog box;
- When left click over a dependency module in a espace, it could have an option to refresh just this dependency or open all public objects on it;
- Another ideia is an option to add an specific new dependency without load them all, suplying a search word or something like it;
- It would be good too if the dialog box with dependencies could load partially, for instance, load first the list of modules and when clicked over a module load its actions, entities and all kind of public objects;
- For system actions and components not in dependencies, it would be good if the general search in eSpace could find them and attach them automatically when used in the module. For instance: The List manipulation actions are widely used, but every time when published an App to production the unused dependencies are removed, later when we need to add new features and new List actions are needed or system components, every time we need to open the dependencies and attach them. This is a kind boring stuff;
- As well, when not used a system action or component, in every publish, remove automatically them from dependency once the search when necessary will find them.

[Ideas] [Service Center] Being able to edit the solution description
We use the description of the solution now to descripe what is done in the new solution (new features, bug-fixing etc). The solution is often made by one person who knows what he has done and not what the other developers have done.
So it would be great that the developers themselves could edit the description of a solution, after a solution is made. On this way the description can be entirely completed before it goes to production. It would also be handy when you just forget something or have a spelling mistake.
