Is it necessary to use a C# DLL via SQL Server? Having a managed sql database is pricy (in Azure) and introduces complexity. Not all C# code is compatible with SQL Server.If possible you could consider a HTTP Connector doing a http call to your web service / api with the C# logic in it.
The topic is marked as answered, but in my opinion it isn't. There is unfortunately no answer for my question I think.
Hi Vincent, Thanks for the update. There is a workaround for this by creating a subroutine with xml/json input and expose it as an API method. Creating an idea for this has no chance I think, it's a quite rare situation I think which don't get much votes, and as there are a lot of ideas and only a few are implemented.However from a performance point of view I'm a bit worried about the Universal GUI, if it's fast enough if it's doing large amount of http calls when executing a task for multiple rows. I don't know where this is going.
I'd almost think of some biometrics such as finger prints, iris scan. Or maybe a tag reader (rfid) or a hardware password key. Difficulty here is that all these kinds of mechanism you probably need changes in the Thinkwise platform I think. I don't know your exact situation and needs, maybe is a device per employee a solution?
Hi, Version 2021.2 does have the option to create branches from branches. You can only merge a branch to a branch or truck that the branch was branched off from. Example: Trunk > Branch >Branch_Branch >Branch_branch_branch You can merge Branch_branch_branch into Branch_Branch, then into Branch, then into Trunk. Using this diagram as another example: Branching and merging: docs While it is possible to merge Feature branch 1 into the trunk (or the other way around), it is not possible to merge Feature branch 1 into Feature branch 2 nor Sub feature branch because Feature branch 1 was not created from those branches. Hope this helps! Thank you for the swift reply. We’ll have to rethink the way we handle branches a bit. Hi,Well I'm interested what your branching strategy is going to be. Please let us know. We have some, I think, similar difficulties: The thing is we are used to the possibilities of Git, for example merge feature branchs to
Interesting question, we might deal with the same problem in the future. I'd like to hear the final solution.Due to the fact that the content (both users and warehouse) is variable it's a bit tricky to set prefilters, as warehouse can be added or removed.What we were thinking of is a table in the end product database linking users and warehouses. If a user exists in this link table (e.g. user_warehouse (usr_id, warehouse_id)), the warehouse could be shown. However this requires user information from IAM, and (a kind of role) management via your end product. The (user) information could be extracted via external tables (explained here:). We already do this for retrieving some company information stored in IAM.
The shortcuts only work inside the form. For this the work the focus needs to be on the form at the moment of entering the shortcut. Currently it is not possible to overwrite the default shortcuts. If you still feel the need to overwrite the shortcuts then please post this as an idea. Hi,That's an odd suggestion to create an idea for it. It should work in my opinion. Let's take the Insights app as example: What does the shortcut (Ctrl + +) mean? When I open a subject, I would expect all the shortcuts displayed should work. But it doesn't. So where are those shortcut hints for if they don't work? Users have to click twice: in the form to activate something, and then on ctrl + +. A single click on the + button is easier.I cannot explain people that they have to click somewhere in order to have the shortcut displayed above to work. It's really unexplainable.
Another question:In the process flow we currently have an optional step that it can run asynchronously. This happens when the import is large (i.e. contains more than N xml nodes). This is done via an asynchronous task as part of the process flow.Is this something that could reflect in the Indicium API? For example it returns by default a http 200, except when running asynchronous, then it should return a 202 Accepted with a location header in the result to verify the results.
Hello Vincent, thanks for the clear answer. I think we even should omit the process flow at all. For what we currently do it's only this:POST /indicium/sf/appl/import -- create a new import record including the import xml file POST /indicium/sf/appl/import_process -- process the just created import with a subroutine.The only thing is that the import file can be another file type (zip). This is why there is a process flow attached, to convert the zip contents to a valid xml file. This is something that we do via an API via a http connector. But that could be a part of the new client application.Dealing with process flows via the API can be complex due to the many steps and http calls that could be made. And you have to keep the API & client in sync with those steps. It's easier or better to keep the data model the same and do some more logic on the client side, creating less dependency on the API. I think the process flow API is only really usefull when it's a single call only, with
I'm actually trying to execute the process flow behind this task via Indicium API, not necessarily the Universal GUI. I'm not sure if the process flow is triggered via the task. However according to the documentation the process flow api should be accessible:https://docs.thinkwisesoftware.com/docs/indicium/process_flows.htmlIf i do a POST to /indicium/sf/appl/my_process_flow the return headers contain a location:sf/appl/my_process_flow(48172af0-0d6a-45db-989f-2e8d81e974ff)/execute_tab_task_importHowever when doing a POST to that location with the content of the task:{“file_name”: “file.zip”,“file_content”: "”}It gives a http 400 “Invalid path.”.
This is what I see on my mobile phone (Android). Although I have Acrobat installed, Chrome on the mobile device doesn't allow plug-ins. I assume the behaviour is the same for tablets and iOS devices.What I actually try to achieve is easy access to drawings with a single click. This could be a preview, or download a PDF file. If you've read my other topic about the url in the card list () you might notice I'm struggling a bit.For some context: A workshop user has a list of items he has to do. He picks one from the list (click) and then should display the details. Most important detail is the drawing file, which contains all measurements he needs for his work.I've tried the download in the card list, but that doesn't work as expected (described in that other topic), I’ve also tried. So I've also tried this previewer detail, but doesn't work unfortunately. Alternatively I could try the grid, but that isn't really mobile friendly (e.g. very difficult to target the proper column(width)s to
Is this what you're looking for?
For Azure (and AWS it's something similar) there is a trick to store the data from config.json in the management environment of your app service.For IIS I know there is something similar for the web.config file. For the appSettings.json I don't know (haven't searched for that).Maybe this can solve your problem? Problem having this stored in IAM is, that it is still way to accessible.
This is a difficult one. In reality I have not 1 branch in between, but 3. The three branches in between are merged as described, but the still existing branch is not yet. However, this branch is outdated and should be preferrably updated with the latest trunk. So I want to update this branch, but this is not really efficient as I have to start a merge session from the trunk to branch 1, then a merge session from branch 1 to 2, then a merge session from 2 to 3 and finally from 3 to 4. And eventually merge it back to the trunk (same steps, other direction). I'm not sure how this will go due to the high amount of branches. It's not really like git that retargets the branch to the trunk.I'm at a point I think it's more safe to create a new branch based on the trunk for the changes in branch 4, and try all over again. However that is also a lot of work.
I don't have experience with AWS, but this looks a bit similar to the Azure configuration we use:https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/developer/environment-variables-with-net-core-and-elastic-beanstalk/
Hi,I think this is since 2021.2.13 release:This is a minor change:Items in the Universal GUI are no longer translated by the browser. Since the Thinkwise Platform has its own translation tool, this prevents unwanted and wrong translations.
I've already created an idea for this as I think this is really added value, please add your vote :-) :https://community.thinkwisesoftware.com/ideas/disable-parameters-columns-by-default-for-concepts-layouts-contexts-defaults-1239For less experienced users it's very useful to have “full access”, but once you're developing more and more, and developing on an existing (larger) system the default behaviour of “always on” is annoying. It takes a lot of time to figure out which parameters are not necessary for each context, layout and default. It's easy to forget when creating a new column.For the Universal GUI performance I guess the time consuming part is the amount of http calls made. For example when after logging in you opening IAM > Applications via Universal there are in my case 74 http calls made. That is a lot. And I think the configuration of the server of Indicium is (going to be) very important.
Anyone?
Hi René, This has been brought to the Universal team's attention internally by another colleague. “Underwater” the Universal GUI does the same thing as other GUI's but the button has a different translation, but they do do the same action. The team will look at it soon. Does this answer suffice? Hi Mark,Thanks for the answer, that is sufficient for now. I think we'll see it back in the release notes of the universal gui I guess :-). I'm curious about what it's going to be. The material design guideline is not really clear about this.Br, René
Maybe use a proces flow with a http connector instead?
Yes, in this case we need an customized refresh task, so f5 is the most logical shortcut According to the documentation you could use a Refresh as a starting point for a proces flow.https://docs.thinkwisesoftware.com/docs/sf/process_flows.html#refreshMaybe you can customize your refresh with this? This keeps the F5 and refresh intact, and you can attach custom code to the refresh.
Maybe the logfiles can tell something more?
Hey Mark, I have ascii code ‘f5’ assigned to a task, but when I hit the button in the application, the task does not start. When I chose a different ascii code, there is no problem. Is this the same problem as you mentioned before? It is possible to select ‘f5’ as ascii code, so if so, that seems like an issue to me. F5 is often used for refreshing data, not only in the Thinkwise platform (your browser for example). You’re really sure you should use that as a shortcut for a task?
Hi,What I've done is the following:I've created a table (purchase_order). I've attached a unit test for it, for example for the default concept. Then I've added a new view (ui_purchase_order). This view is the replacement of the table, so I want to move the existing default logic to the new ui_ view. However, what I didn't mention I also created a new default (control procedure) for the ui_purchase_order, and moved the templates from purchase_order into the new control procedure. I removed the old ones.Doing this results in this:And also indicates this using a red font:I want to move the unit test to the new (proper) object. The unit test didn't move along in this case, I think it should be fixed when the Object in the image above is also ui_purchase_order instead of purchase_order. But I can't do this via the SF. And rewriting is also a bit time consuming ;-).
Maybe has some overlap with this:
