Hi everyone, we’ve been using the ODATA API for quite some time, but recently we’ve ran into a bit of a limitation. It seems like the Odata API does not support SKIP & LIMIT, which are necessary if we want to build pagination in the application we’re building. The only option right now is to use TOP as a initial limit, but that does not scale well when working with large & increasing datasets.

Cursor_to_col_id does not seem to be working in the grid while adding a row. We are using the Windows GUI version: 2022.2.16.1.As you can see the cursor is always on the first field. The first field is an image combo.Is there something I can do to make this work?

Hi, I have used the following guide to create an api call to my Systemflow in Insomnia.This works like a charm, the system flow is working and callable. I am now trying to setup another process-flow that uses a task to start an API call to the system flow, but I am getting the following error: The remote server returned an error: (411) Length Required. I have to admit my knowledge of API's is very limited, I tried to setup the http connector with the same settings as I used in Insomnia. As input for the http_connector i have the following input: https://[server]/indicium/iam/clevrr_test/test_api_system_flow (same URL as the working one in insomnia). Http method is set to: POST. I have tried to use authentication username + password as well, but that does not work. Do I need to send empty content? Is there something Insomnia does, that is not done automatically by the http_connector? What am i missing? Tnx in advance. 

How do I use the expand functionality in indicium? Whatever i try i always end up with invalid odata url. I tried creating an expand statement based on the documentation, either the documentation is incorrect or I am missing something here. https://docs.thinkwisesoftware.com/docs/indicium/api#expandthe community wont allow me to add the link I use so i added a picture. I tried on tablename, id name, lookup name. Nothing seems to work.

I can no longer navigate to my local indicium instance. It's giving me a 500 error and the log shows this error: 2022-12-05T13:46:28.4343183+01:00 8000000b-0009-ff00-b63f-84710c7967bb [ERR] An unhandled exception occurred while processing the request. (ffba027a)System.InvalidOperationException: The MetadataAddress or Authority must use HTTPS unless disabled for development by setting RequireHttpsMetadata=false.Where do I set this setting? I can't find any documentation on this. Do I set it in the appsettings or web config? And in what section does this need to be added?

Hello, is there any idea when we can expect the domain control ‘Sqleditor’ to be implemented in Universal?We would like some endusers to be able to create their own validations in the end product, so an sqleditor would be ideal to implement that. Thanks in advance,Bram

Normally when I press the ‘Add’ button, the cursor is located at the first column in the form (or the @cursur_to_col_id). This doesn't happen when I start ‘Add row’ from a process flow. How can I get the same result? 

We are pointing with a (generated) deeplink in e-mails to our customers and suppliers. These pointers refer to our good old WebGUI portal.I really love the universal GUI and I would like to generate these deeplinks to Universal for a faster acceptation of Universal (and close the old WebGui portal)Is deep linking already possible in Universal or planned? 

Hi, We are using the Univeral GUI on Android tablets for scanning barcode on products. We have noticed that often the barcode scanner has trouble to scan the barcode. In the Mobile GUI the scanner works better and faster, because there is a red line where you can put the barcode on the camera. Is there any way to improve scanning using the Universal GUI? 

Hi,After I upload a file I am getting “:443” in the upload link. Which means I can't access it via external app with the preview link.Link after file upload:But if the document is generated it doesn’t get “:443” in the link.What is causing this? And how to fix it?    

Hi, Sometime I see this; Why, how, and who gets to see this? I don't want any end users to see this. Is it because I am admin? Or.. something else. Thanks! Alex  

Why is it still not possible to align numbers also in grid views left?In some cases, this is desirable, especially when a ID field, for example an invoice number which is an integer (eg. 20220014).I know, there are tricks to get it done, but we don't like to use expression fields for this. 

Hi, In our application we have some expression fields in a form which has auto-edit enabled. When auto-edit is enabled the text in this field gets greyed out like this:We want this text to be black eventhough auto-edit is enabled. I've tried doing this with a conditional layout specifically set for this field, but even then the color gets overwritten somehow. So the next step is doing this by changing the css values.I've checked which element and  css class I need to edit the color, which are the following:I've changed the alpha channel from 0.38 to 1 and the text color changes to black:So I took the css class and made the change in my custom.css file. Restarted my application. But nothing's changed. Anyone know what I'm missing? Thanks!

Using the dbo.tsf_user() in a default value expression (see image below) leads to an error in execution of a model (after an upgrade from SF2021.2 to SF2022.2) We experience the following error during execution of the source code:  Error: 'Column "dbo" is not allowed in this context, and the user-defined function or aggregate "dbo.tsf_user" could not be found.'.Any ideas?

One of the major trends in IT is the tighter integration of Communication, Collaboration and Core System tools. Microsoft Teams and Slack are communication channels that not only replace email for many conversations and notifications, but also provide great added value for collaboration. Microsoft Teams far outperforms any of their competitors on collaboration, thanks to being embedded in Office/Dynamics 365 and allowing for custom in-Teams apps, integrations, etc. Slack has been acquired by SalesForce recently with the same purpose of tightly integrating a collaboration tool with a Core (CRM) System:Together, Salesforce and Slack will deliver the Slack-first Customer 360 that gives companies a single source of truth for their business, and a single platform for connecting employees, customers, and partners with each other and the apps they use every day, all within their existing workflows.In light of these trends and the high adoption rates of tools like Teams and Slack, I am surpris

Hi all,I have a requirement for which I need to encrypt and decrypt column data for a specific table or view. The application is on Universal GUI.The user needs to click a task button provide the password save it in the session cookie. When the user will want to see the decrypted information of the specific encrypted related View. A function will need to have access to the session cookie to retrieve the entered password of the user. This view will utilize the function to decrypt the column values upon refreshing the document. If No Password OR Wrong password was entered the view will show the encrypted information.  Any other idea how to implement something like this differently would be useful. *Note: The database is already encrypted and that protects the data from outside theft, however it does not protect the data from Administrators within the company or people that have dattabase access. This solution is for covering the later part.Edit:Below functionality of Azure SQL will b

Any community suggestions how to consult an API (via flow I guess) when adding/editing a record. If a user exits a column in a form (and it is filled) I want to check its value through an API. 

Hi all, The import function has the option to turn on ‘updat existing rows’. In our project, the users want the checkbox to be turned on by default. Would it be possible to set the ‘update existing rows’ to be turned on by default?  Kind regards, Mark Leunissen

When I open a screen (in windows GUI 2021.1.17) a subject that has the option "Hide breadcrumb (main scr.)" checked by screen type, the breadcrumb is still displayed. Am I doing something wrong?

Here’s a very simple question I somehow cannot figure out. How does one authenticate a connection to an off-premise SQL Server instance such as Azure in software factory? I’ve added a runtime configuration for the Azure database but there is no means here to store a username and password.I assume the current runtime configurations pick up the domain user credentials to connect to on-premise databases but this obviously doesn’t work with Azure databases.

What settings steer the functionality of filtering in the grid? I have 4 similar lookup fields,  ID with lookup to base table..  and as far as I can see 2 have a filter option like below and 2 don't..  what setting causes this difference?  I want all fields to have a similar filter option.
