Hello, I have a suggestion to add functionality in Webcon. While I run update process a portal not working and is no any warnings or communicates about the update process. I suggest add a simple banner for example: Update is processing / system upgrade. Anything what may tell users something more than empty site.

Hi, Adding new rest api user context in adminpanle , we can choose permissions to applications. When can chooses ReadWrite, but still it's giving possibility to overwrite element after creations. I think that good idea will be give new to of access like CreateOnly. To start only new element in Webcon, but not possible to overwrite by api.

I think it would be appreciated by many developers, if you would add "activate"/"deactivate" on every element in the business rule / form rule / other similar places. It would make debugging much easier in many cases. Just as it is in the actions now.

Hi, the manual filling by clicking the text layer within OCR verification process is very helpful, but it isn't work for date type form fields. It doesn't work since version 2022.1.2.59 -> i've started developing the process. Thanks and best regards Daniel ## EDIT: it works if the mask is (changed to) "empty". ...sorry the entry...

Hi, in version 2022.1.4.84 the column header isn't displayed using horizontal arrangement in group. My last version 2022.1.2.59 has displayed the header correctly. Thanks and best regards Daniel #EDIT: fixed in ver. 2022.1.4.155

Hi, I don't know when the character limit for the field multiple lines of text in item lists was added, but is it possible to change this limit? Or adding the ability to change it? The DET_LongTextX column in the database is ntext type, so is there any reason to limit the number of characters to 1000? This thread may be related - https://community.webcon.com/forum/thread/2366/30, and users are complaining about this limit :)

Hi, I know this is a kind of "stupid" request. If I select an "Item list" it would be great when the order of "New form field" and "New column" would be switched. Even after years of using the Designer Studio I will create new fields instead of new columns, especially after just creating the item list. Maybe it's just me, but I doubt it. Best regards, Daniel

Hello, after changing the connection type for exchange actions from EWS Basic to MS Graph, I lost the ability to format body text in html in exchange calendar events. Problem observed in version 2022.1.4.84. Manual update with Graph works fine, however, calling it from the built-in action, there is some conversion to body content applied here - please return us the ability to format body in html :)

Hi, I had a "task" workflow with a due date and this due date was used in a timeout in a start step. At a later point in time it was decided that a "save draft" path should be added which won't validate the form. Using this path failed with "unknown exception" and the diagnostic log did not contain any hint that this was related to the timeout. Everything was fine except that there was the below stack trace. There is also no error in the event log. It would be great if there would be a h (...)

It would be great to have the possibility to edit soap message header in a way the body is editable now. I came across couple of services (e.g. National Statistics Office in Poland) requiring secret string to be passed in the header element. So it would be good to be able to map field values to soap header element. Currently there is no way to use standard invoke soap action with this service. Thanks. W

It would be nice to have the ability to hide report tiles in dashboards for users who don't have access to a report

Hi, after a few years I noticed that the "Business entity" field is missing from the available columns of a dictionary. Of course, one can create a BPS Internal view to work around it, but it would be great if more "default" (system fields) could be added: - Author - Date created - Last person modifying - Date modified (not listed in the system fields) - Business Entity - Form subtype I highlighted those in the attached image. Best regards, Daniel

Hi, it would be great, if in a multi-tenant WEBCONAPPS environment the deletion of workflows could be activated. I understand that it's easier to remove the whole archive action but there are cases where the delete action is necessary. For example in use case of PCG Academy during the WEBCON DAY. Deleting via REST API may be an option, I haven't tested it but I assume, that this would execute the "Upon instance deleting" trigger. This is not the case with the delete action, for which I'm (...)

Automatic tool to check compatibility after upgrade to new version and reporting potential issue on new version. Steps how it could work: 1. Upgrade DEV to new version (small or big version) 2. Pick list of IDs from PROD (global admin or app admin). 3. Tool is reading all attributes and follow on production processes to recreate all steps as user did (including changing user and their privileges). Starting all parent and child workflows as it was on production. 4. Reporting differences i (...)

Hi, maybe I'm one of the few if not the only one who uses his mobile to access the community. In case this is not the cases it would be great if two things could be checked : 1. I don't find the search box using a mobile. This is true for iOS as well as android. 2. Revise of the layout of a thread. There's a lot of empty space especially if there a quote. Which makes it harder to read. 3. The number of answers is not displayed. Maybe this could be realized at some point to: VISUA (...)

Hi everyone, the start new element API has the mode parameter with the following description: mode String($int32) (query) Optional mode parameter that specifies validation behavior. When empty or standard, all fields will be validated. When set ignoreReadonly, readonly fields won't be set but no error will be returned. Admin value allows to edit readonly fields, but requires admin permissions. Available values : standard, ignoreReadonly, admin I would opt for a different/additional (...)

The substitutions could be a system field so that in the reports it would be possible to see if the instance has a substitute assignee or not instead of manually open each instance to check.

Hello, during my experience with BPS Designer Studio (around 2 years) I've been multiple times in a situation where I had to create 'Constants' for positions from BPS 'Fixed values list'. So there is a short list of values for example Car Types: 1. Sedan 2. Hatchback 3. Pickup Let's say you have a single form, where you want to display fields conditionally - depending on the selected Car Type. To make it well documented instead of putting Car Type (ID) = 1 - you have to create 'Cons (...)

This would be a great option if the attachment could be moved to the indicated item id on the action. Currently, there is an option only to move an attachment from the indicated element to the current one (the one on which the action is) i.e. "copy from", but if it were possible to move an attachment from the current one (the one on which the action is) to the indicated one "copy to" this would solve problems in situations where we need to use a timeout to copy something. An example would be (...)

Hi, I really like the single edit dialog for an item list the only drawback is the term "Save". I'm getting more and more feedback that it is confusing and I have to agree. There's the save button on the workflow form which persists the data in the database. Then there's the save button in the single edit dialog, which will save the values for the row, but does not persist the data of the workflow itself. I wanted to change the term "Save" to "Apply" using the translations but I'm stuck b (...)
