🚀 Ideas to be 10X faster - which SF workaround to eliminate?

Compared to other platforms, Thinkwise really excels in productivity. Especially the fact that creating a Data Model immediately results in a working Application is unparalleled! One of the current strategic priorities is to double down on this development speed of the Thinkwise Platform: we strive to make every Developer a mythical 10X Developer!There are a lot of angles we can work in order to achieve that goal. As a first, we want to fix unnecessary limitation in the Software Factory (SF). This means we want to tackle those things for which you as Developer have to create workarounds to get functionality working the way you(r users) need it.There are a lot of great Ideas out there and of course we'll review the existing ones. But I would also like to call upon the Community to highlight which existing Ideas would be your priority and/or to create new Ideas related to eliminating SF workarounds (please keep it to this scope in this topic).Could you please:Reply with Ideas that would

Start table task process action not running inside process flow

 Hi !We have 2 tables Employee and Invoice. Adding rows to them is done with this 2 process flows: add_employee , add_invoice.Start table task for add invoice flow has a parameter with lookup to employee table :  In the new opened popup we start the add_employee flow. Unfortunately it stops running at a start task process action with no status code for debugging in the “process_flow_monitor”, al so there is no error in “live_error_log”.  After canceling the start table task for the add_invoice flow the add_invoice show up in the monitor.  The add_employe process looks like this:  Any idea why is this happening? PS:For now we used a workaround and executed the functionality of the task in the decision preceding the start task process flow.

Backup task works via SMSS/ADS but not via application (indicium)

How do tasks get executed via Universal GUI. We have containerized a lot of deployments with limited access to the databases. Therefore I'm introducing a backup task in the model.The task works when I run it in SMSS/ADS, but via the model it doesn't and there are no error messages. When I invoke the task via SMSS/ADS then it makes the backup and I get back the json with backup info. When I run the task from the application, it almost instantly ends. Meaning it didn't work, it didn't wait for the backup (S3) to complete? There is no logging, no error, et cetera..  what could be the issue here?

Api call returns Null Array, while others in the same permission group do work.

Hi wisers,For Reporting purposes I’m trying to retrieve data from our Thinkwise Application to Power BI. I’ve set up SF roles, permissions and coupled the roles in IAM after deployment. Also I’ve checked the groups effective permissions on the bugged table (agreements) and confirmed that it has the corresponding permissions. However when sending a GET request for data it returns an empty array (example screenshot 1).When sending a GET request to any other table in the same role/ permission group it does return data (screenshot 2)Next to the basics of roles and permissions I do not know where to look/ solve this issue, any suggestions? Thanks in advance. screenshot 1screenshot 2

Can Drag-and-Drop Within the Same Grid/Table Provide IDs for Both the Selected and Target Rows?

For one of our clients, we want to enable the ability to swap certain rows in a grid using drag-and-drop functionality. For the business logic, it is crucial to know both the ID of the selected row and the ID of the row where the selected object is dropped. The drag-and-drop action would occur within the same grid/table. Is this achievable using the standard drag-and-drop functionality?

SVG not showing colour (Universal)

We are using SVG’s as icons in our universal application, being able to import them in the application as image_upload. When I import a SVG with colour, it will turn black after a split second. Why does this behaviour happen and how can I disable it, so the SVG’s will keep their original colour?

How to make trigger fire again when duplicating?

Hi, we have a table where we want to be able to duplicate an existing row because this will streamline our process further.We have a field called po_number, which is being filled with a trigger. We add a counter to it which makes the record unique. However, when we duplicate an order with the same details, we want a new counter to be assigned to it, but it grabs the old counter and we can't save the record. When we duplicate, can we set that value to 0 so that the trigger applies a new counter?

OpenID Connect API client under Azure - debugging

Hi,I have configured an OpenID Connect client in our test environment to have an external application use the API. Our Thinkwise application is hosted on Azure and makes use of a key vault to store the secret. In our test environment this works.When I want repeat this configuration on another environment I get an HTTP 500 and the application cannot be accessed. The configuration seems te be correct, but still. The question is how I can “debug” what is going on and why it doesn’t work.Something that seems strange in this regard is that any changing of config files (and restarting the AppService) seem to lag behind. With that I mean: I do change 1, restart, check. Then I do change 2, restart and check, and then change 1 seems to be in effect and not change 2 (yet).Hope that someone can give me some tips about the debugging or pointers where to look.

MQTT in Thinkwise

We are investigating if we can receive MQTT-messages in Thinkwise somehow.So we'd like to subscribe to a MQTT topic which has been published by a device, and based on the message execute some logic in our application.Someone has setup this in Thinkwise somehow and provide some guideline how to achieve it ?Thanks.

Oauth connector with client credentials

Does thinkwise support this? I'm trying to integrate with a Brazilian bank. The token is to be fetched using client_credentials..  I don't see this option in the TW Oauth connector. Also it requires a client certifcate and key..

File upload with local storage and subfolder indication

I'm trying to upload files onto a local storage. Now it's a bit unwanted to have everything in one folder, so i'm trying to incorporate the subfolder like 'contract', but it doesn't seem to be supported. What is the status of supporting the subfolder using the file upload API (Indicium)? It surely cannot be a fixed value only from the SF.

Create report with dynamic file name (filepath error)

Hello!I want to create a report with a dynamic title containing the date. I saw this post: Create report with dynamic file name | Thinkwise Community, and followed the steps proposed, but I get the following error: It seems like it does not just sets the filename to the value specified in the default, but the entire path. How can I keep the path the same (in user’s documents folder), while setting only the filename?

SSMS opens new instance for each file

Since the upgrade to SSMS 20.2, it opens a new instance every time when I open a template from the SF, while before it should only open a new tab.This is very annoying and undesirable, because it costs unnecessary time and resources.I myself have not been able to find a solution, my friend Co-pilot did not know either.Is there perhaps someone in the community who knows?PS, I am aware of Azure Data Studio, but at this moment I still prefer SSMS

Error only on Windows GUI

Hello!In our application we have a big process flow that works fine on the Universal GUI(we don't have any error in the console either).Windows GUI on the other hand, throws the following exception:Could this be because the Windows GUI is overwhelmed by the flow or can we expect this to be a problem for the application on Universal later as well?

Value stays in task input field even after resetting its value to null in default code.

Context: I’m running into the issue that my inputfield is being populated by the ID (of the tablerow, not the lookup value) even when I’ve resetted it’s value to null. It only happens when the default triggers. Also the inputfield behaves like it’s null. I know this because I’ve build checks to enable functionality based on population of that field. For instance.. @supplier_1 is not null » do something. That ‘something’ isnt available or happening.What I’ve tried: Check our logs Check indicium logs Set @supplier_1 = null Set @supplier_1 = ‘’ Check the tsf send message parameter for aborting my flow. Change order of code, first the message then the set = null and vice versa.Neither of them seems to work.What is the expected behavior and how am I helped? »  If I can get a empty value in the task popup so my userbase doesnt get confused.Version: 24.2

Rapid schedule query in IAM requires to much resources.

Hi, I’m currently running into performance problems caused by a scheduled system flow with a very rapid schedule (every second). This seems logical, we are running this code a lot so it stands to reason that it uses a lot of resources, except that the queries in our model executed by this flow, are extremely optimized. Our monitoring indicates that the query used by IAM to fetch the schedule for this flow in the stored procedure process_flow_schedule_start currently uses a ton of CPU time. So much so, that even with a slowed down schedule, it makes the top 3 most resource intensive queries run on the database server. User complained about a slow working application and we’ve had to slow down this flow which is a shame because this flow is really important for managing all our asynchronous API-calls and slowing down the schedule slows down a lot of processes for the users.We would like to restore the rapid schedule. Using this rapid schedule is something that was recommended to us sever

Does the lack of functional value for usr_time_zone_id indeed qualify as undesired behavior and thus a bug?

It appears that the Universal GUI uses the application language (as specified via user preferences) to determine the display of columns with the datetime2 datatype. However, this seems to be undesired behavior. I would expect the Universal GUI to rely on the settings configured for the IAM user instead.In the Windows application, we use the WindowsCulture parameter in the .ini file.As Niverplast is an international company, we use English as the default application language. However, since our headquarters are located in the Netherlands, my Dutch colleagues have been assigned the time zone ID Europe/Amsterdam in IAM.  I notice that when changing the application language via user preferences, this update is correctly reflected in IAM, which is good. However, the usr time_zone_id does not seem to have any functional value.   Does the lack of functional value for usr_time_zone_id indeed qualify as undesired behavior and thus a bug?

GUI issues after upgrading to 2024.3.13.1

HelloSince we upgraded to 2024.3.13.1 we are experiencing issues with some GUI elements. For example if you take a look at the screenshot below (left = new, right = old) you see the following.At the first section there is a enormous white space because in the upgraded version it seems like Thinkwise is rendering a <h2> tag even in there is no title present for the group. We don't always want to use titles for groups because it makes the page longer than needed and it results in this.How do we fix this? Also because of the extra <h2> the <div> beneith as a grid-row-end: span 2; instead of grid-row-end: span 1;It is even worse in a popup (task). That is exactly the reason why were are not using titles for group, because it makes your popup way to long / heigh.Also for some reason in the upgraded version the grid seems to calculate or render columns in a different way, which results in a big white gap we didn't have in the previous release. See pictures below (old vs new

Customizing Login Screen Styling for Multiple Tenants

I’m currently facing a challenge with customizing the login screens for a multi-tenant application hosted in Azure. The client wants each tenant to have a separate, recognizable login screen, but the app is hosted in a way that makes this more complex. Current setup:The application is hosted on Azure in a single App Service. All these applications share a single IAM instance for authentication mapped to a different alias and tenant. This IAM instance controls global settings, including logos and themes, which are applied to all tenants.Right now, the logos are combined into a single .PNG file in IAM's global settings. We’ve also made customizations to the styles.css (e.g., button styles) within Indicium, but these customizations have to be manually backed up and re-applied every time we upgrade the Indicium instance. 3 logo’s next to each other. 1 .PNG file.​​The problem:The client wants each tenant’s login screen to be customizable—particularly the logo and styling—so they’re distinct

Alternative solution while Excel style filtering isn't possible in Universal?

I was under the impression that all functionality that was possible in the Windows GUI was already available in the Universal GUI but apperently the Excel style GUI still isnt :(My customer uses this functionality a lot so it’s keeping them from moving to the Universal GUI.There is a lot possible with the FilterForm screen component but one of the examples the customer gave was filtering in a table with logging records and wanting to only show the ones for user A and user F.In the FilterForm I can do User equals ‘A’ but not User equals ‘A’ OR ‘F’If the FilterForm was able to process an IN-clause like USER IN (‘A’, ‘F’) we would at least be able to perform the most used reason for our customer on why for them Excel style filtering is crucial.

Best practice to keep developing on base model that is integrated in work model

Hello, I m curently working on a model that would become a base model for some of the work models. Yet, the base model would require adjustments and future development later on. The base model contains functionalities that ar linked to work model procedures and so, means that the work model depends on the base model. So far I descovered that any small changes in the base model would impact any other model that contains the base model, even if the changes are for testing purposes or part of development.That means if the base model is already in production or development environment any new branch created from those would be affected by any changes from the base model.How can I work with that as a best practice, considering that I cannot unlink the base model from the work model? Thanks,Paul

Minimize padding in specific grid

Hello,I’m currently building a dense screen in terms of information.In order to show the end users more information that what you see in a default grid, I’m targeting the specific subject in my custom.css file. In there, I’m changing the font to a slightly smaller size.Now I’m actually wondering if I could minimize the default padding that is used in a tsf-grid-cell and tsf-grid-header. I already tried some things but I could not figure it out. It seems like the grid cells and headers have a fixed size width when using Auto column width: Headers and data that is dynamically calculated?Any tips to increase the amount of information in a screen?Thanks in advance. Best regards,Nick Janssen
