Windows GUI deployment to multiple paths providing 'incorrect' new-version warning

Out situation is that we have 4 totally separate environments for each of the DTAP-environments.As we are using (also) the Windows GUI, and the fact that Thinkwise is advising to use the TWDeployer for installation, we install the Windows GUI to all 4 environments via 1 downloaded installer package.If we afterwards open for example the Windows GUI linked to the DEV-environment, and after that open the Windows GUI to the TEST-environment, we get the following message:This message ofcourse is incorrect as the installation is equal as stated before.A workaround is the install just for 1 environment, and then copy the binary's to the other 3 environments.If we do this, no ‘new version’-warning is displayed.Question is how others do this and if there is a way to follow the advised way of installation based on the Thinkwise Deployer. Thanks. best regards,Cyril

Web Connector how to deal with form-data response.

I have an API that I call to extract certain pages from a PDF. The request seems to be ok. However I get a response in form-data back and I'm stock on how to process. < HTTP/1.1 200 OK< Date: Tue, 01 Oct 2024 14:36:40 GMT< Content-Type: application/pdf< Content-Disposition: form-data; name="attachment"; filename="QUERO%20QUERO%201S24_rearranged.pdf"< Content-Length: 518605Now I fetch it with @document_data, but it needs treatment to be correct. The previewer cannot read it because probably the content-disposition header should be stripped?

control date output from date picker control

I have a Crystal Report that expects 2 dates as parameters.When I run a trace on the db using an extended event I can see what query the Crystal Repost is executing:exec "VMS"."dbo"."reporting_price_and_purchasing_headerinfo_v2";1 9, 1, N'1-1-2020', N'29-8-2024'The problem seems to be in the formatting of the date which is dd-mm-yyyy while the SP expects a DATE which is yyyy-mm-ddWhen I run the CR report manually and enter 2020-01-01 and 2024-08-28 as dates the trace shows:EXEC "VMS"."dbo"."reporting_price_and_purchasing_headerinfo_v2";1 9, 1, N'2020-01-01', N'2024-08-29'And the report shows the correct data.But how can I force the date picker in my Thinkwise application to output the selected date as yyyy-mm-dd rather than the more human readable (on this side of the big Atlantic puddle) dd-mm-yyyy?This question is related to my previous topic but the focus shifted from debugging to fixing a specific issue.

Web connector vs HTTP connector

I changed an existing HTTP connector to a web connector so we can change API key in IAM. Unfortunately there seems to be a difference in how the request body is forward. I have a generated request body that worked in the HTTP connector, type application/json In the web connector I've translated this in body type JSON and one input parameter that gets the generated body json. The API provider gives back a JSON parsing error on the web connector.

Performance Form List

@Yara Visser is actively working on a project that utilizes the form list and with the latest release of the U-GUI it's workable for this project (we needed the combos). However there is one performance thing, of which I am curious on how this can be improved. The form list uses a table, in which, you define your questions and answers. Whilst answers can be of different type a layout procedure has to be used to show the correct answer typed field. This is great of small form lists, but not for form lists that can have up to a 100 questions. I saw a test example of about 50 questions, which leads to 50 layout procedures to be fired. Can't we make this smarter? A typical call is 40-50ms .. if I have 100 questions this will be 4-5s.. This is a typical scenario of multi-row execution. Can't there be just one call from U-GUI for all the relevant rows in the form list?Any ideas on this @Arie V @Erik Brink @Vincent Doppenberg

Access Token MS Graph

Hi, I am looking for an option to retrieve an access token for MS Graph.In the SF I have defined an OAuth server connection and I log into the SF app using a Microsoft Account.The Oauth user login process action has an output variable "Access token” but even if I'm connected with MS account, i get a redirect to log in again. Is there any option for me to use or generate an access token when i’m connected with Microsoft without having any redirectons or pop-ups and also get it for later usage? Also, the "OAuth server login connector” provides with a token that I cannot use since it does not have delegated permissions. Kind regards,Paul

Appending a file via a write file connector not working

I’m trying to append to an existing file via a ‘Write file connector’, however a new file with a timestamp is created.The file name in the write file connector is a relative path within the storage location.Like so:This should result in ‘\CICD_MAIN_RELEASE\9.08.4\Deploy\Install\965_Base_data.sql’. The ‘Write file connector’ looks like this: Is the write mode ‘Append file’ not working correctly?

Date format keeps showing UK format

I am a developer that works in a small team. Currently my language is set to Dutch, and it's the same for all other team members. when I open our application, and we look at the same grid, whenever a date is displayed, their UI shows the date in dutch format (d-M-yyyy) and mine shows it with a UK format (M/d/yyyy).This is afaik using the universal UI in a browser. the user settings seem to be the same for all users and I have tried several things already: change-save-reset-save and the refresh of the model in between. changing it in the IAM back and forth refreshing the browser, setting it to not translate anything, ctrl-f5, etc (this is chrome)Where am I supposed to look for a place where I can set the date format correctly all through the application?

Process flow present in database but not on UI

Hello!Recently we started to replace some Http Connectors to Web Connection, for that we checked in database to see which process flows have it.We discovered that for a process flow which is present in database, it does not display on the Software Factory UI, we are not sure how that happened, but it happened somehow.If we try to add one with that name, we get obviously an error that the name is already taken.Do you have any idea how to bring it back to the UI or how it happened? We might need to take a closer look into it to see it's importance, but until then will be nice to know what is going on.Thanks!

Start process flow with an API trigger call

Hello! We want to start a process flow (see image below - process flow A) with an API trigger.Process flow A For triggering it, we used another process flow with a web connection and a simple table task to start the process (see image below - process flow B). Process flow B We have managed to make it work in Postman, giving us an OK 200 status. However, in the universal gui, the flow exits with a -1 error code (see image below for the live error log). Both authentication methods are exactly the same between our web connection and Postman. Any ideas about what we might be missing?

Copy base model into work model (without linking)

Hello,I am wondering if it is possible to copy a base model into an existing work model without linking the base model. I have some use cases in which I want to copy parts of a model into another work model and from there customize the base model to the requirements for that specific work model. If I would do such a thing with a base model link, I would have to change the base model and this would impact all of the work models to which the base model is linked.I tried this with exporting the base model and importing it in the work model, but then it has no shared origin branch and I am not able to merge the models.The only thing I did not try yet is to branch the base model, customize it to a specific work model and then link this branch from the base model to the work model?Best regards,Nick Janssen

Batch update in grid - selected rows / all rows

In Windows GUI you can do an upgrade for selection / all rows in grid / all rows, in Universal GUI this option is not available. So, a user has to perform this action for each pageBy the way, looking at the translation: all rows in the table suggest all rows in the DB, but it is actually all rows within context / selection. Our DB has > 200k rows for this table.

model_version vs version_name vs branch

Hi,Since this summer we work with the new model/branch process. We deployed our products always with a modelversion, like 1.140. Now we state this versioning in the new ‘version_name’ in de model settings. When I synchronize this to IAM, I see an option to sync as a different branch, but we can update the MAIN branch. So in IAM the model/branch looks like this. Can’t see the actual version_name here? When I create a deployment package, I check the version name:I use this package in a customer environment, I get the version name as Branch: Why is the branch replaced by the version name of the model? Why is this different from syncing to IAM?

Drag drop task 'action not allowed'

Hello everyone! In our software we have the ability to plan work orders. This is done via a drag drop action and a task. The following happens if I try to do such an action: It immediately gives me a 403 forbidden error. I don't get why because:I am (obviously) logged in I have set all rights to the correct role Even without the rights and roles simulation active this happens The last given error was the following:I have no clue what could be happening, as it is very unclear. What could potentially be the cause of this sudden 403 error? Just a while ago I could plan work orders via the drag and drop functionality, now I am not allowed to do so.

Usage of Local Time

We, as shipping company, have users which have to log their vessel activities. Our vessels cross the sea and travel all over the world, meaning they travel through different timezones. All our datetime fields are being logged in UTC time, however it would be easier for our users to log in Local Time based on the selected port. Lets say, the Captain of the Vessel wants to log their Departure in port “Taicang”. Now the Captain needs to calculate the time in UTC before being able to log their activity. It would be much easier for them to log in Local Time, so that we calculate the UTC time for them. We also have “Planners” who would like to communicate with Local Time towards the Captains. In short, we would like to make use of Local Time in a lot of places within our application. While doing research I found the following methods to calculate from/and to Local Time. Use of a query like follows: SELECT @UtcTime AT TIME ZONE 'China Standard Time' AS TaicangTime Downside: In some port

IAM - OpenID Providers roles claim is sometimes missing.

I have set up an OpenID provider in IAM, allowing users to log in to the application via SSO. Now, I want to link user groups to this role using the 'roles' claim.I am facing an issue, and I think it might be related to the number of roles assigned to a user, as in some cases, there are quite a lot of them, but it could also be something else. For some users, I see a long list of roles where I could filter by ID to find the correct role, but for other users, I don’t receive any role claim at all, even though these are configured in their Azure AD. Does anyone happen to know what might be causing this?

User Management via end application

Hello, We have a use case in which we want users of our developed end applciation to be able to add new users and manage the access level of those users. We would not like to give those users access to IAM, because there is a possibility we want users from our customers to be able to do this. We know of the IAM API layer which you can use to:Add users to IAM Add a new user group Assign roles to a user groupWe are interested to know how far we can go with this API layer. Can we for example also create a new role in which we can grant access to very specific columns in a table? Or do those roles always have to be predefined in the SF, whereas we can only assign those predefined roles to existing or newly created user groups? Thanks in advance. If the question needs more clarification please let me know.
