Hi Maksymilian!

This works like a charm and is exactly what I was looking for, thanks a lot.

Best regards, Nik

Hi Nikolaus, I've written something a little time ago, but it doesn't dig in all possible places like configuration specific permissions. Application, process, workflow/form level are covered though :)

I can't remember who exactly (my thoughts are around Karol Częczek), but on latest community meet-up, there was a presentation, where someone went deeper, and 'parsed' those XML configurations stored in database to find more specific permissions too.

Hi all!

Is there an easy way to list all the privileges (and scopes) for applications, processes, associated form types, dasboards and reports?

Maybe someone already wrote a query for that or can point us in the right direction?

Thanks a lot in advance & best regards, Nik

The message
"unhandled exception has occurred while executing the request.
System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object."
was from the event log.

I tried exporting a new translation and importing it without editing the excel file, the error was still occured.

Hi,
Firstly, see if there is more information in the event log.
From my own experience, I know that if the translation files can contain errors that cause problems y with the import. Errors are e.g. some white characters pasted into the translated data, or e.g. the translated data is not the text entered in the cell but e.g. an excel formula. It all depends on who translated the file and how.
Try generating a new file to translate from the process, then copy e.g. the first 3-5 translated columns from the translated file into this new one, and try importing anyway, bit by bit.... you should be able to trace where there is possibly an error in the data.

Regards.

OK, as I know in Freemium I can't disable sending data in app configuration, but I can block it on firewall (local machine or network scope) for outgoing trafic? Do you know the destination address, protocol (https?)? And is it in any way dependent on communication with the WEBCON license server?

Quoting the changelog:

"The functionality can be managed through a new section, WEBCON BPS Statistics,
(System settings → Global parameters), which was added to Designer Studio. The
section allows users to withdraw their consent (the Allow sending statistics checkbox)
(note that in such cases, the information is still collected even though it is not
transmitted), check the last data delivery time (Date of last sent data), view a file listing
delivered data (Show sent data),"

You can easily check what data is collected and potentially sent.
I am attaching a fragment of the file with statistics.

I think (I hope) that the individual statistics are clearly described in the file. If not, please let us know.

What exact statistical data is sent to WEBCON starting from version R2?

"3.4. API & SDK
• Usunięto API v4.0, natomiast wersja 5.0 została oznaczona jako przestarzała.
Endpoint api/login służący do uwierzytelniania został usunięty i zastąpiony
endpointem /api/oauth2/token. W związku z powyższym, jeżeli w Designer Studio
skonfigurowano połączenie REST Web Service, gdzie jako typ uwierzytelnienia
podano WEBCON BPS, to nastąpi samoczynna aktualizacja połączeń do
Aplikacja (oAuth). Ponadto:
- jeżeli połączenie do wersji WEBCON BPS 2022 i wyższej nawiązuje aplikacja
(Połącz jako -> Aplikacja), to nie są wymagane żadne dodatkowe działania,
- jeżeli połączenie do starszych wersji WEBCON BPS nawiązuje aplikacja, to
poprawne działanie połączenia wymaga zmiany ustawień na Połącz jako ->
Aplikacja (przestarzałe),
- jeżeli połączenie do wersji WEBCON BPS 2025 nawiązuje użytkownik (Połącz
jako -> Użytkownik), to konieczne jest przekonfigurowanie połączenia na
wykorzystujące uwierzytelnienie oAuth2 User -> API lub typu Aplikacja (oAuth)."

Everytime i try to import a translation for a dictionary i an error:

unhandled exception has occurred while executing the request.
System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Does someone know how to fix this error ?
