To improve the REST API and working with it, perhaps it is possible to introduce support for batch processing. I think it could help and speed up the work with field updates in many elements. https://www.odata.org/documentation/odata-version-3-0/batch-processing/

Hi, I think it would make sense to add to the global permissions the level “access to applications” Currently, if we give a global level of, for example, “permission to read all items” it can be problematic to give permissions to the application per each application. This needs to be maintained and remembered. If there is a global level per item, it should also be global for the application. Regards.

There's tile restriction in Outlook addin classic which doesn't allow to add more than 12 costum tiles. Is there any way to add more than 12 tiles? I'm asking becouse this tool is used on daily besis by our costumers.

I've just found out that when I switch multiple lines of text field from the standard type to formatted it just disapears and there is a type error with no furter explanation. Is it just in my case or is it common in the latest version?

In the 2025 version, a new feature was added to allow transferring an attachment to another item with the ability to specify the Workflow ID. This functionality operates within the context of the current database. **Proposal for enhancement:** Extend this functionality to include the ability to specify the Content database ID where the Workflow ID is being referenced. This enhancement would be useful for transferring attachments across multiple Content databases, where processes are di (...)

Hi, if we have a chart with a detail level, you can click on a chart element to see the elements, these information are displayed as tiles. At least if the chart is located in a row set to "one-third column" and the chart is located in the smaller part. It would be great if we could also define the display mode of a report for a chart. This display mode would be applied to the detail level of the chart. This would allow us to get a better overview even if the number of columns is limited (...)

A nice add-on feature to reports would be If we could use the widget field directly in the report table. By this users could benefit from viewing rich info widgets directly from report to check the whole project portfolio health for instance.

Hi, A useful option would be the ability to capture and save the output of a powershell action, either to an attribute or to a local variable. Similar to the mapping of response values in a REST action. This would allow the received data to be further processed/used in subsequent autumatization actions. Regards.

Hi, I'm currently upgrading processes from 2022 to WEBCON BPS 2024 and encountered another unexpected change. Both "Start a subworkflow" actions "now" verify whether a field is visible. While in one case I didn't declare two fields as visible in the start step I have a visibility restriction in another. Since the visibility restriction of uses the 'Source' field value (1), which is set by the "Start a subworkflow" action, it's always false. Therefore the field 'Assessment answer' is neve (...)

Hi, I'm currently upgrading processes to WEBCON BPS 2024. I was expecting issues with custom JavaScript but encountered also one with the "Add attachment" action. While testing I got this error: Error occurred in add attachment action: Copy attachments. No attachments I'm not sure when, but it seems that WEBCON BPS now checks whether any attachments exist which can be copied over. If they don't exist an error is thrown. Could we please get a flag to define, that this check should (...)

Hello everyone, we frequently encounter situations where it is convenient for us to perform an Excel export of the current state via the DATA TABLE. Recently, we have been hitting the limit of 1000 rows more often (https://docs.webcon.com/docs/2023R3/Studio/Process/Attribute/DataPres/Sql_grid/#7-allow-excel-export). I would like to propose a review of the current server performance to determine if it is now feasible to increase this limit to 2001 (header + 2000 rows) or, ideally, to 2501. (...)

Hi, I've cases where one choose field updates another choose field. If the data source is not a SQL database this can take some time. Setting the first field takes about 1 second, (1) in the attachment. Getting picker search results 540ms Validate picker control 460ms The setting and validation of the target field (2) takes again 1700ms and another 390 ms for executing a form rule. Setting target form field first choose field 1160ms Validate picker control 611ms Setting own target fi (...)

Dear All we have a lot of pie charts at our dashboards and when someone has a lot of cases in different instances of pie chart dimenssion e.g. depo, country, acceptacne path it is difficult (esspecially since WEBCON2022) to select certain part of data. it would be nice to have option to select one lable from the graph legen or deselect all and then select one instead of deselecting several + recent dispaying of the values on pie chart doesn't bring a lot of value as it only shows number of inst (...)

It would be very helpful if excel generating action and data table attribute ability to save as excel could produce an Excel file with or without columns headers. This is sometimes useful, as some external applications accept only data in excel files and no headers.

In template configuration of vacation template generated process we have 2 important data sources - vacation history and vacation plans. Their display on vacation chart is different - history has legend and colors for different types of absences, whereas plans are displayed just in one color and there are no types. Another difference is that history items do not point to the original item, whereas plans allow us to link to the original element. One more difference I've noticed is that no matter (...)

It would be very helpful if one could create a global form rule and webcon would run it on every page load (especially the pages outside of apps as there is no way you could perform anything there now). This way you could force a user to "punch the clock" after logging to webcon (load and start a dedicated workflow) or show some important information after the user logs in.

Hi, WFD_Att Choose columns have size nvarchar(1000). When using the 'allow multiple values' mode and having translations in the source into 3-4 languages, additionally if the ID is e.g. guid, this value is exceeded very quickly. Is it possible to increase the database size of this type of columns to nvarchar(4000)? Regards

Hi, as always when a new feature is provided, new requests will follow immediately. :) It would be great to see in the workflow history whether path authorization was used and which method was used. At the moment, it's not at all visible if path authorization was used at all. If the authorization is activated for existing workflows, we can't distinguish which instances have been using it. Best regards, Daniel

Hi, it would be great to have the UTC time in a hover effect of a time. In the attached screenshot you see the same element but with different times. One browser is running on a server with a different time zone. Even so it's explain it can cause confusion. Therefore some way of displaying the UTC+0 time would be great. Best regards, Daniel

Hi, I really like the new path authorization feature and we will surely use it. The geolocation is also an interesting addition but if it's used in combination with the path authorization it will created unexpected results. I noticed that the geolocation of the browser is used, even if path authorization with method "application" is used. If this method is used, it would be great to use the location of the device instead. I made two tests, one with and one without active VPN. As expected (...)
