  1. In Flow Studio, users encounter a challenge where some column names appear twice in the variable list without any indication of their originating table. This lack of distinction can lead to confusion and potential errors in selecting the correct variable.

    Proposed solution is to enhance the variable list display to include the source table's name along with the column name. This will enable users to easily distinguish between variables with the same name but from different tables, thereby reducing confusion and improving accuracy in variable selection. Implementing this feature could involve a format like "TableName.ColumnName" or a similar approach that…

  2. When you create a sequence arrow then right click, there is no need to have the word "CREATE" before each element.

    Additionally, the list could be alphabetized to easier find the type of element you want to add.

  4. We have startad using a lot of images in our Flows to show product images. There are however quite some limitations in this area.

    I would like a see a Image function that allows us to display a image in any element.

    The function should take image source, width and height (and maybe something to keep aspect ration or not). The width and height would rezise the image server side for faster load times on the client.

    Img(url, 300, 300, 1)

    This would allow us to display a list of items with images in List Selection Input or in a…

  5. When I copy an element, I want to be able to right click on a sequence arrow and paste. As things stand I have to paste onto the canvas and then drag until I get the green arrow. I should be able to right click and "insert copied element."

  7. When doing complex operations in Flow, either as a loop of machine steps or as a machine step with an iterator, the user is left in the dark about what is happening. It would be great to be able to present the user with a progress bar that gradually fills while Flow is processing the operations. This could be a special User step that requires no interaction from the user and disappears when the process is done. Inputs would be a counter variable, a total of the number of operations and a user message detailing what is going on.

    A…

  8. Currently it is required that the "Allowed File Ending" values are hardcoded when uploading documents to the File Gallery. This rigid setup limits adaptability and increases maintenance efforts, especially when file requirements change frequently.

    Proposed solution is to integrate the capability to accept variable values for specifying allowed file extensions in the File Gallery. This dynamic approach will enable administrators or developers to modify accepted file extensions on-the-fly without the need to alter the flow itself, enhancing flexibility and reducing the need for frequent flow modifications.

  9. The ability to show more than 100 rows per page in a datagrid for a Web NG Client is typically controlled by the settings and configuration of the datagrid component.

    It was available in the old web client but is not present in the NG web client.

  10. When multiple parties are involved in Flow Development (eg Novacura/Partners/Customer) it is essential to control access to different workflows. One of the ways to achieve this is to allow access control to the folders created on the root (and not allowing any workflows/menus to be created without a folder)

  11. The current Now() function in Flow retrieves the time based on the device's local time. This can lead to inconsistencies for users or workflows operating across different time zones. To improve this, there's a need for advanced time manipulation functions and settings.

    Proposed solution is to introduce new functions like Now().utc, allowing users to retrieve time based on specific time zones like UTC. Additionally, integrating a timezone setting for each user in Studio, similar to the existing Language and Locale settings, can ensure consistency and accuracy in workflows, catering to diverse customer needs. This enhancement will grant users greater flexibility…

  12. A lot of times i want to copy + past multiple steps from an existing flow. This is currently only possible for one element OR in Edit mode. If someone else has a non committed working version we cannot even set it to edit mode to copy/paste parts of the flow.

    Same goes for machine/script steps which are larger. Since you are not allowed to scroll you cannot copy the content without setting the flow to edit mode.

    Would be nice to give the possibility to select like in edit mode for both these cases so we can copy whatever…

  15. In the ever-evolving landscape of app development, speed and adaptability are paramount. Our proposal aims to empower Flow developers with a Generative AI Copilot, capable of swiftly building components of an app and facilitating real-time modifications, all through natural language conversations.

    Key Benefits:

    Rapid App Component Creation:

    The Generative AI Copilot enables developers to efficiently construct app components, eliminating the need for time-consuming manual coding.
    End-to-End App Creation:

    The Copilot can autonomously generate entire applications from scratch using OpenAI and Generative AI technologies, significantly reducing development timelines.
    Adaptive Modification:

    Developers can request real-time adjustments to the app via natural language…

  16. As Flow Developers, we often find ourselves striving for optimal workflow efficiency and effectiveness. To facilitate this, we propose a feature that combines two essential elements: enhanced flow analytics and seamless Copilot integration.

    Key Benefits:

    Route Performance Insights:

    Percentage-Based Route Usage: Flow Developers can gain valuable insights by visualizing the most frequently used routes within a workflow, presented as a percentage. This helps in identifying bottlenecks and optimizing workflow paths.
    Average Time Tracking:

    Time Spent Between Workflow Steps: Users will have the capability to track and analyze the average time spent between each step of the workflow. This empowers developers…

  18. In the current system, when there's an error in a flow fragment version, navigating to the issue via the Problems window takes the user directly to the fragment version causing the error. While this might seem like a logical approach, it can be counterintuitive in scenarios where multiple versions of flows and fragments are being worked upon concurrently. Users might end up editing older versions of fragments unintentionally.

    Use Case Scenario:
    Consider two flows, A and B, where B is a fragment invoked by A. Both have versions Av1 and Bv1 as the latest. Now, if a new version of…

  19. In the current system, editing the label text of a canvas element requires double clicking on the element in the canvas view. This method can be time-consuming, especially when designing intricate flows. Moreover, without immediate renaming during the design phase, elements can end up with generic labels like “Machine Step”, “Machine Step [1]”, etc.

    We propose to introduce an option to edit the label text directly when in the edit mode of a canvas element. This enhancement would provide designers the flexibility to rename elements on the fly, ensuring clarity and reducing the likelihood of generic, repetitive labeling.

  20. We frequently execute numerous queries on our M3 IBM DB2 iSeries database, and occasionally, I encounter issues where Flow Studio does not accept the query.

    We've been able to adjust queries in the past to make them compatible with Flow Studio, but this time I'm facing difficulties. The problem specifically arises on line 7 of the query.

    We make extensive use of "with" statements, so it's puzzling why I'm encountering an issue in this particular instance. It's possible that the problem is related to the brackets I'm using to dynamically insert parameters into the query, but despite the error, everything…
