Dark mode automatically turned on in IAM?

If I open the Universal GUI (2021.1.12) and IAM is the top most application it automatically switches to dark mode. The dark mode then also applies for other applications. It also applies for the next login session. Why is this, and how can I disable it? This is very annoying. The login dialog is the next time also in dark mode, which is very confusing for some end users.

Process testing on webgui / universal / Selenium?

We want to improve our automated tests on the web gui and Universal GUI. Currently there is a feature "Process tests" (https://docs.thinkwisesoftware.com/docs/sf/test_cases.html#docsNav). With this feature you can record steps a user could do in the application. This covers all situations that cannot be covered by unit tests. For example when a task is no longer visible due to a change in the roles & rights. Unfortunately there are some downsides of this feature;It only works for the Windows GUI It doesn't have a 'setup' and 'teardown' (clean database) It cannot be automated with ci/cd toolingBecause we only use the Web GUI and are also targeting the Universal GUI we cannot use this feature. We're investigating the possibilities to solve this. We are looking into Selenium WebDriver (https://www.selenium.dev/). This requires some programming knowledge (or you could use the Selenium IDE), but by using this we could cover all test cases. Because it's developed using i.e. C# we could a

Temporal table "for system time" makes task very slow

For a certain task it’s required to query a system-versioned aka temporal table at a certain point in the past. Let’s call this table temporal_table for simplicity.Here’s an example query:select v.*from temporal_table for system_time as of '2021-2-27 14:59:46' vIn SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) this runs in about 2 seconds for this particular table. Using this in a lengthy select statement with a bunch of joins also runs rather fast in SSMS as it takes about 10 seconds to finish.The problem happens when this code is used in a task in our end product. As soon as the for system_time flag is used in the SQL code the task goes from running 10 seconds to what’s basically forever. This is the same code used in SSMS, with the exact same datetime for testing purposes. (This date will be replaced by a parameter in a later stage as it needs to be dynamic.)I’ve tried to get around the issue with this alternative query:select v.*from temporal_table for system_time all vwhere '2021-2-27 1

How can I get a client environment/system variable available in my code.

We currently use a fixed “C:\TEMP “ to generate reports in a process flow (which is an input parameter for the process), this is using a (windows (gui)) client directory. (and is apparently a workaround for issues we had with the reportconnector according to TCP issue 71858 and it wants to use a temporary directory on the client)When trying to get our application running at our customers we cannot guarantee they have access to C:\TEMP - especially running virtual instances like Citrix. What we do know is that they have access to the clients environment/system variable ‘%temp%’.We’d like to get the value of the variable ‘%temp%’ from the client to provide this as the input parameter for the process flow but we do not know how we can get the value of the clients variable.

Visual indication in which environment you're working

Is there a way to have a visual difference so that it is clear you are working in a test and/or acceptance environment?During the release process users are often having multiple applications up-and-running. While they are performing tests they may also be doing work in the production environment. Having the same look-and-feel will make it inevitable that production-data is entered in the test-environment or vice versa, resulting in a production-environment with inaccurate data.By giving, for instance, a different color to menu's and background this could be improved.

Debugger crashes

Can someone confirm or it's a general issue that the debugger will not handle it well when you debug a layout with a file upload (VARBINARY_MAX) column. Most of the times it crashes. Probably because loading the uploaded file is too heavy for the debugger? Debugger crashes - Program Not respondingTurning off the parameters for that specific column seems like a solution to me.Subjects > Default > Columns > Form > Performance >​​​​I'm curious if others recognize this problem.

Proces flow - open screen after set time or event

Hi all,I have set up the report generator, which is great. I also have an upload to Azure (developed outside of SF) which updates my Db with an online path to the file in the cloud. All is good. When a client creates a pdf (e.g. an invoice) with a task.The following happens; click task → insert in Table Rpt_queue → file is made. → File is pickup by magic → uploaded to Azure → File path is inserted in an extra column in the rpt_queue. An update trigger fires and send the file back to the source table (e.g. invoices) AND to a table 'Document Pool’. The document pool is where we collect ALL files on this account. Invoices, reports, bills, contract, etc.  Anything generated?  → boom, in the document pool. So, after the task has fired, we use a process flow to open this document pool in a new tab. All good. HOWEVER, due to the time it takes to generate and handle the file, the doc.pool is not updated yet. This takes on avarage 20secs. Is it possible to either delay to process flow with 20se

Azure SQL Database for Software Factory

Wanted to ask if there is currently in the plans, or if it is working already to have the Database of the SF in Azure SQL ? A Goal we want to achieve, is to move everything to Azure, and as a first step just wanted to know from DB POV.From GUI POV I suppose an on-premise machine or Azure VM is still needed and required.

Process flow API settings SF 2021.1

In the process flow definition (of SF 2021.1) two settings are available for an API configuration: API switch and API alias. Our assumption is that these fields need to be configured to start the process flow as an API (Indicium Universal). However when trying to POST to the API alias we receive a 404 (not found) error. Posting (via Insomnia) to the original process flow name as an API does work. What is the purpose of these API fields?

I found out the translations are not approved in the base project “GUI_TRANSL”. Is it save to approve them there? I didn't expect to approve new translations according to the upgrade blog. https://docs.thinkwisesoftware.com/blog/2020/11/26/2021_1.html#upgrade-validations​​​​

How to use OpenID from IAM for authentication on Azure App Service?

I'm trying to configure an Azure App Service that uses the OpenID possibility of IAM to authenticate users. The app service is a website with static content and should be protected using an OpenID Connect provider:https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/app-service/configure-authentication-provider-openid-connectI’ve tried to set this up, but I struggle with both the configuration in Azure and in IAM.When I use the example document from Microsoft documentation (below) from Apple ID it does redirect me to the Apple ID login page, on which I assume should work when correctly set up;{ "platform": { "enabled": true }, "globalValidation": { "redirectToProvider": "apple", "unauthenticatedClientAction": "RedirectToLoginPage" }, "identityProviders": { "openIdConnectProviders": { "apple": { "registration": { "clientId": "com.contoso.example.client", "clientCredential": {

Barcode controll doesnt work in Universal GUI 2021.1.12

With version 2021.1.12 of the Universal GUI a barcode control is released. But it looks like something is wrong with this control.When we use this control, the entry fields are not shown on the task-form. Instead there is a empty space on the form….As soon as we change the domain of those fields (just remove the barcode control), regenerate and synchronise to IAM the entry fields are visible again….Adding the barcode control to those fields makes them disappair again…..
