Hi, it would really if we could create inline "data sources" for the running mode `Get data from data source` if the source is a SQL database. Reasons: - It would be similar to data tables, where you can write your own SQL, so the user experience will be similar - We don't bloat the SQL dat

Hi Damian, I doubt that you will get a really good answer for this, why it has been implemented this way as it is. The decision will probably date back more than 10 years. :) As far as I can tell the use case for this option is, that you want to move the workflow instance to another step. Dep

I'm also for a less hacky option to apply colors to paths, so I get rid of my approach. Add a simple css class to the path element based on the selected color would solve this: https://community.webcon.com/forum/thread/2181?page=1#m2187 Off topic: These kind of names are a "no-go" for me. A

Hi Anna, you can refer to the data of the current row using the wfelems alias. Your example would be something like: from wfelements innerQuery WHERE innerQuery.WFD_ID = wfelems.WFD_ID If you activate the diagnostic mode, you can take a look at the executed SQL statement. Best regards,

Hi Yordanka, I prefer to have multiple smaller processes and in this case I would split the two business cases as I assume that the lending process will consist of multiple steps too. In addition, there are multiple options how the consultation may end and it can be confusing for the customer.

Hi, it would be nice, if I could omit the element id in the "GET" request of a 'Action on a workflow instance' running mode. This would be more similar to other APIs and it wouldn't make it necessary to create a separate 'Get data from data source' endpoint. If OData support / paging would be a

Hi, it would be nice to move API definitions of the running modes 'Get data from data source' and 'Execution mode'. These are running outside the context of a workflow/process anyway and while you are going through multiple iterations you may want to consolidate these. Ok, there may be referen

Hi, I tried various approaches to return an actual NULL value via Execute Automation, this wasn't possible. Instead these are default values: Text: "" Decimal: 0 Boolean: false DateTime: 0001-01-01T00:00:00 https://daniels-notes.de/posts/2026/user-defined-api-part-4-execute-automation#no-

Hi, in my version (2026.1.6.198) there are a few limitations: - There are no time zone information. This applies to all running modes and even if I just use a Execute Automation and return an incoming date time value, the information is lost. https://daniels-notes.de/posts/2026/user-d

Hi, it would really be helpful if OData support could be added to the 'Get data from data source' running mode. This would allow to add custom filtering on addition to the one configured in WEBCON. Best regards, Daniel

Hi, the result of a 'Get data from data source' UDA is limited to a 1000 records. I can understand the reasoning but implementing a custom paging option for each endpoint is cumbersome. It would be great, if this would be handled by WEBCON. I'm currently using one of these approaches: https:

Hi, while I can image that there are currently higher priority tasks than improving the change control (change history) it could be a low hanging fruit to offer a small dialog in which we can store two/three fields which will then be saved in the database with all changes. For example, this woul

Hi Ernst, I would start with inspecting the request WEBCON executes and compare it to the one postman submits. I use HttpToolkit in these cases. Regardless, if you already have an option to get the content, you could use the add attachment action to generate to binary data for the attachment.

Hi, I'm not aware of any public link, you will probably get a link using the official page. https://webcon.com/demo/ Keep in mind that the new Freemium versions are now limited to a 90 day usage. I have in mind that this was introduced with the release of WEBCON 2026. Best regards, Daniel

Hi Franek, thank you that you took the time to investigate it and confirm the behavior. I also wasn't able to confirm how it looks like in the UI, as the servers and my client share the same settings. I will test it tomorrow, when I'm copying the solution to the customer environment which is

Hi Franek, thanks for the feedback. That was exactly the approach I wanted to use. This is the time I send via the REST API (patch/post) "value": "2026-04-23T09:06:05Z" But this is the time which is returned via the API (get) "value": "2026-04-23T09:06:05+02:00" Which is not what I had

Hi everyone, whenever you are working with times you are bound to run into issues. I think this has and will be a permanent truth when working with computers. I currently "just" want to write a date time to an item list column and won't to return the same value. Seems simple, but time zones

Hi everyone, assuming that I'm not doing anything wrong then this endpoints returns the collection of all attachments with their content. "https://$($WebconConfig.Hostname)/api/data/v7.0/db/$($WebconConfig.DatabaseId)/elements/$ElementId/attachments" $result = Invoke-WebconApiRequest -Method "G

Hi Ernst, while I haven't tried it you could add an action to the timer which set's the comment. Otherwise you could use this approach to check in a validate action if the user added a new comment: Get current comment https://daniels-notes.de/posts/2024/current-comment I'm not sure, wheth

Hi Michael, the only thing which comes to my mind would be an Application Proxy which doesn’t use passthrough for credentials. I don’t assume, that the default settings for the cookies have been modified. :) Thinking about cookies, the time zone/ date of the servers are ok? Best regards,
