We prefer using SVG for icons, but the circle around active prefilters with a png icon are more clear  It is also difficult to find a optimal solution, that works for dark and light modeHopefully this can be improved a little. 

Hey community,I have the following question.I’m trying to upload an Excel document in our application by using the file API of Thinkwise.I had this working via the http connector and now i am trying to change this to the web connection connector.Now I am encountering the following problem:When I am uploading the Excel document a staging table is being created. When this is created a header output gives me the ‘location’ GUID that is needed to  commit the staging table.When the staging table has been successfully created the header above is being returned. In this header lies the ‘location’ key in which the GUID can be found to commit the table in a later step of my process flow.My question now is as follows: How do I get the output header or more specifically the location key from the header as an output parameter in my web connection.In the working http connection it was programmed as the following image shows. Now i have the following in my web connection connector.​ The proces flow

Hi, A little while ago the Thinkstore solution MSGRAPH_RECEIVE_EMAIL was introduced. A nice feature that makes integrating emails via MS Graph very easy. At the moment, the Thinkstore solutions works for your own mailbox and all folders associated with that. However, I want to add shared mailboxes to this.I hoped it would be as easy as adding the scope Mail.Read.Shared, but the shared mailbox doesn't show up. I'm having a hard time finding good examples in the Graph explorer.Does anyone have some experience with using the MS Graph in addition with shared mailboxes?  Kind regards,Mark  

The new posibilities of action bar are really nice.In de dropdown list we like to see all prefilters, because on small devices this is needed to see the title of the prefilter and users get confused when grouped prefilters are split in two places.   

Hello, In using a send user notification in process flow, is there a way or an option to use either in-app notification or email notification? or is there a system flow to use email notification aside from in-app notification? Thank you

More .. button without permissionsWhen no permissions are selected in the subject, the ‘More ...’ button becomes irrelevant. The idea is to hide this button in this situation.

Hi,Is there an update about the Open document process action and it's attribute to open a document as a floating document in Universal?The following release notes show the same kind of functionality being implemented by alt + clicking a (detail) document. Would be nice to have it present in the process action as well.  Thanks!

Hello,I have a question about the process action “Open document”.I would like to click on a specific cell in a grid in order to open a new document as modal window. The process action has a input parameter which makes sure the document is indeed opened as modal window. However, I want this modal to only show the details of the line I clicked on. Is this possible?As a workaround, I can:start the table task with (a) table task parameter(s) Open the document as modal Filter the document using the table task parameter(s)

Users with full rights on a certain table get an error message about a trigger on that table:Cannot find the object "table_td" because it does not exist or you do not have permissions.The trigger does exist however and with an account with sysadmin rights this error doesn't occur.What's a possible solution here?

Hello, Would like to check on how to put loggings on Functionality or Process flow,  that will show/display in the error logs. For troubleshooting or debugging. Currently we are having some issue in the system, and I would like to put loggings.The functionality is control procedure (Tasks )  and using merge script template. To give a small background of the implementation, we have process flow to import data in the system, the import data is a json file from other system. Sample error we encounter is below.  I would like to put a logging to pin point exactly which data is causing an error. Table name: order_lineCannot insert the value NULL into column 'order_id', table 'dbo.order_line'; column does not allow nulls. UPDATE fails.2025-04-15 06:15:00Table name: order_addressCannot insert the value NULL into column 'order_id', table ’order_address'; column does not allow nulls. UPDATE fails.2025-04-15 06:15:00Table name: order_timelineCannot insert the value NULL into column 'order_line_id

Hi!So we recently installed our app on an on premise environment and an error that we don't really know where else to look at is the following one:We are getting 400 Bad Request - Invalid URL in the moment the user is choosing something from that dropdown.The target for that dropdown is a view which based on other columns given is filtering the results, this is working good in all other environments that we have.We tried it inwindows gui and there is also working and in indicium live error log there is no result We tried also other tasks that are working in the same way and there everything is working fine, so it might be a local issue for add/edit tasks which we don't have more ideas how to track.Do you have any suggestions? Thanks!

In the IAM you have 2 taks to apply roles & user rights on the DB, and that one gives a notice when I have 1 model 2 applications that point to the same DB.De rechten van deze applicatie kunnen niet toegepast worden omdat er andere applicaties actief zijn op dezelfde database en server. Although I understand the reason this check is there, however it is only viable when the applications have different models I guess.  Situation is as follows, there is 1 model, 2 applications (each with a distinct context variable and some other contextual difference like color) that point to the same database (it's not an option to separate the DB).Due to this check I cannot sync the roles, and as the applications have the same model/version it should be allowed to do this. As for the user-rights, it appears this can also run perfectly fine when the model/version is equal between the applications, as the user-list looks at the users of the Tenant, not specifically users that are present in the auth

We would like to communicate with the indicium service using powershell. Does anyone have a sample script for me?

Hi, The popup screen type of a table variant is not working as I expect it to in a task.I have a cases screen for which I created a table variant, named cases_menu. The cases_menu variant serves as a screen where users search for their cases. Since there are a lot of cases, the setting ‘Start empty with filter’ is turned on. This works perfectly when accessing the screen from the menu. However, when using a task that opens the cases_menu variant as a popup, the variant is opened with data. This defeats the purpose of the start empty with filter checkbox.Table variant with popupTable variant popup with dataAdditionally, the task below should open a form of the cases screen, which is assigned and made available in the cases_menu variant, but doesnt work. Now this could be solved with a form detail, but since the user is used to double clicking a case, I would like it that the double click opens an additional popup/zoom.Kind regards,Mark

Since our recent upgrade of the Thinkwise platform from 2023.3 to 2025.1 a report stopped working in Indicium with the following error:Query maat_niveau failed to execute. ---> DevExpress.DataAccess.Sql.CustomSqlQueryValidationException: A custom SQL query should contain only SELECT statements.The query contains a select statement over a subquery. No CTE's are used.What else could be causing this? Or is there a possibility to skip this validation alltogether? The report runs fine in devexpress designer 1.70.

Hi! We’ve been using cubes to monitor our KPIs. I was wondering whether it’s possible to schedule periodic exports of the chart itself, either as a PDF or an image. If exporting isn’t possible, would it be possible to retrieve the chart through something like an API call?

I have set my first steps on customizing the stylesheet because there are really nice examples to improve the Universal GUI. Thanks Harm for your post on the cardlists.So I tried to read all about the custom css and I created a custom CSS and placed it in the universal folder. I just copied an example from the css blog of Jasper and copied some css code into the custom.css.It simply looks like this now, just to do a test and see how it works. However the css is not applied if I put in the universal folder. What do I miss. I restarted the application pool and the application as well on the webserver and in the browser but that did not help.As said I’m brand new to css so perhaps I miss some basics… Hope someone can help me out  

Hello!We are trying to install our app for a client on premise and until now everything seemed to work good. The strange part is that now for every task when the user is choosing to cancel the "An unknown error occurred, please contact your administrator” pops up. There is no process flow involved for that task, the deployment was good and execution of the task without cancel work fine.We checked the live error log, error log but nothing is there and on windows gui is not happening. When checking the network/console there we can see that the call failed with status 405 Method not allowed.Any ideas how we can solve this or what is causing it? We saw this post  but is not very helpful since the answer is another question and it feels strange to be from permissions because executing the tasks normally without canceling them works just fine, but maybe we skip something that you can guide us. 

After pulling and running Indicium and Universal containers in Docker on an on-premise Ubuntu host both are running but Universal isn’t reachable via the browser. Browsing to http://hostname/ shows the running Indicium instance (log-in also works) but when going to http://hostname/alias our end-product doesn’t start and I get a blank page instead.These are the docker run commands I used to pull and install the containers: Indiciumdocker run \    -p 8080:8080 \    -e SQL_USERNAME='***' \    -e SQL_PASSWORD='***' \    -e CUSTOM_JSON='{"Logging":{"LogLevel":{"Default":"Information","System":"Information","Microsoft":"Warning","Indicium":"Information","Duende.IdentityServer":"Warning"},"ApplicationInsights":{"LogLevel":{"Default":"Information","System":"Information","Microsoft":"Warning","Indicium":"Information","Duende.IdentityServer":"Warning"}},"ErrorLog":{"PathFormat":"Indicium-{Date}.txt","LogLevel":{"Default":"Error"}}},"MetaSourceConnection":{"Server":"HOST1","Database":"IAM"},"Agen

We have a Linux server with a couple of Docker containers running Indicium and Universal. We plan to move systemflows from IIS to this new server but for now we want to have the option to run them in both environments if needed. All relevant files and folders for the systemflows are reachable from the Indicium container but because file paths on Linux are different from those on Windows the correct path needs to be determined from the systemflow.An idea to solve this problem is to include two file read connectors that try to read a simple check file using two different absolute paths. The two possible absolute paths would look something like this:Windows: \\share\checkfile.txtLinux: /share/checkfile.txtThe correct path depends on which of the two connectors can successfully access the text file.Is this the best way to reach the goal?

What am I doing wrong?I want the pre-filters after the normal filters, and actually in the overflow. So I defined this in the default action bar And in screen type I setup an action bar (the pre-filter bar is also necessary, otherwise no pre-filters are visible, which is unexpected to me, as these should appear based on action bar. For the tasks, those are visible based on action bar, so these seem to work differently)Here also, filter & quick-filter before pre-filtersBut the result is, and that is not what I want As default is overflow, I have not defined custom display type Am I doing something wrong or is it not working properly? Also this is very strange.   

Extended properties | Thinkwise DocumentationThe entry CachePath has a neat little entry:A custom path where the Windows GUI stores a cache of the application definition to increase the startup time. My best bet is that this is something you would not like to set, because, well, it increases your time waiting on starting up the app right? Now to my probable problem: We’ve got it set to %temp%\awesomeness_app That location is not restricted for reading, writing etc… Can it be that for some time now this is not working anymore, because it (tries to) write its cache in the same directory as where the executable is stored? 

I try to implement a zip and download functionality that reads out a folder on azure and zips the files inside that folder.There are the following steps : Decision that either selects the next folder to zip or ends the process when there is no folder left to zip. This decision sets a process variable with the name of the folder. (not shown in the picture) This folder name is used as input for the zip process action. One of the output fields of the zip action is the file_data, which is assigned to a process variable that has the var_binary(max) datatype. This var_binary variable is the used as input for the download action that also takes the filename of the eventual file that is downloaded. The download itself seems to be working as in that a ‘save as’ form is shown with the correct filename that can then be saved on the local machine.However, the file that is created is empty. The zip functionality itself does not give any errors (status code 0 is returned) and the file_data output pa

Is there standard functionality that allows you to create an xml file of selected data?I have a function that returns an xml variable.This variable contains all the text that I need.Is there an easy way to put that in an xml file and give it back to the user so that he/he can store it locally??
