  2. When incorporating Chinese characters into a document flow in Novacura cloud, some corruption issues arise, often due to missing fonts.

    The feature request has been approved and is now scheduled for development. Our product team has determined that it aligns with our product roadmap and will bring value to our platform. We will keep you updated on its progress.

  3. In some connectors for example FileSystem we need the ability to handle errors and sometimes ignore them.

  4. As a user, I would like the Bartender connector to add functionality for the 64-bit version of BarTender, as it currently only supports the 32-bit version of BarTender 2016 R8 (Automation or Enterprise Automation Edition).

  5. We urgently request an upgrade to the existing log analysis tool for the REST M3 API connector. Currently, the tool lacks the essential capability to efficiently search for specific transactions or data within the logs. With each call and response generating individual log files, the volume of transactions quickly becomes overwhelming, rendering effective analysis nearly impossible. In contrast, the previous socket-based M3 API connector generated a consolidated API text file that enabled easy data search and facilitated comprehensive analysis, including input and response times. The current limitation significantly hinders error diagnosis, making the troubleshooting process arduous and time-intensive. We propose…

  6. Currently, when using the REST connector, if a stream is gzip or deflate compressed, the data received is successful with a StatusCode of 200, but the body content is garbled due to the Content-Encoding being gzip'd at the source. This requires additional manual effort in transforming the data to be usable.

  7. Why?
    When a user starts the Novacura client without a previous Novacura session, they authenticate with Entra ID before opening an application.

    When the application is started for the first time and a REST Connector needs to acquire a token, the token request is currently performed as an interactive sign-in. This is visible as an interactive authentication request in the Entra ID sign-in logs.

    At this point, the user already has a valid Entra ID session. Requiring another interactive authentication request is therefore unnecessary and prevents the initial REST call from providing a seamless single sign-on experience.

    Refresh token handling…

  8. Client accessing IFS via Flow Connect wants to be able to restrict access to some tables, even for developers. In Flow Classic you could set up connector so user was simultaneously login in to IFS and Flow, so he was not using IFSAPP user to gain access, but his own level of privilege. I'd like to be able to present to client's similar functionality, since currently we can set up connector with single login/password per environment.

    Moreover login with multiple flow users in single IFS user seems like license issue waiting to happen.

  9. It would be nice if we could log somehow if an enduser run a workflow and during a REST call an error occurs, then later a developer could check these log files. Or if the issue is not reproducable in DEV environment, only in PROD/TEST env. (like a similar functionality in Flow Classic).

    A use-case from partner:
    "If the user experience problems occasionally and we can’t recreate it in the debug.
    Another example, sometimes when I get long responetimes during testing I cannot see if that is because of M3 or not. Next time I run it it is quick…

    We are happy to inform you that development work has begun on the telemtry feature which will allow for such logs. Our product team has assigned resources and is actively working on implementing it. We will keep you updated on its progress.

  10. Currently a WSDL contract is necessary when creating the connector. However, once the connector is set up, it doesn't need ongoing access to the contract. On an on-premises server setup, the contract could simply be placed in the file system and accessed from there. However, on a cloud setup, direct file system hosting isn't possible.

    One suggestion is using a file system connector, which would allow users to upload the file onto the cloud server and then point to it. However, this approach is somewhat unconventional and a bit of a “rouge style”. An additional layer of complexity exists if…

  11. Currently, while flow 6 connectors handle REST-API errors based on status codes, they fall short in handling timeouts. A feature that handles timeouts would greatly improve our application's error management.

  12. Run PowerShell scripts directly from Flow Connect workflows, enabling customers to automate administrative tasks, interact with Windows-based systems, and integrate with services that may not expose traditional APIs.

  13. Currently we are looking to add active monitoring to our agents. Unfortunately the errors we get aren’t particular useful as we can’t link them to any person or activity.

    Is it possible to add a userid in the log and maybe a bit of info regarding where the user is within the app. e.g. the component name or the application name. (If possible if the error occurred during a sync work too)

    Without these its very hard to track where and when the error is occuring.

  14. We have several use cases where you want to display images and documents inline or in a pinned user step.

    Examples of this could be invoices (pdf), instructions (pdf), graphs (html), progress illustrations (html), picking/packing illustrations (html).

    A very useful addition to the Html to PDF Function to solve these use cases would be to add two more methods:
    1. Convert PDF to Image (alternative to have a PDF viewer in a user step)
    2. Convert HTML to Image

  15. Generating Reports and labels in Flow seems to be an ever increasing use case.

    We have some tools (e.g. HtmlToPdf, the consulting developed Document Management or external services like Convert API) to generate reports and labels, but we are missing a way to get them printed if needed.

    For this use case it would be very useful to have a Print Connector, where it would be possible to send a printable file to a printer.

    Please fix. Thank you.

  16. As a developer or admin of an organization, I would like to see how many concurrent sessions are being utilized in a given period on each agent to determine if I need to add more agents to an agent group for better performance.

  17. As a customer, it would be nice to see exactly what APIs are called on the Agent logs. Currently, we can only see the APIs outbound and inbound in the Diagnostic mode client. But we would like to be able to see all the APIs including payloads and responses inside the Agent Logs for traceability.
    The amount of days logged should be configurable and searchable.

  18. The IFS API documentation has many fields in it Request Body Schemas wrongly labeled as 'required' in the input type definitions. There are examples where over 20 items are wrong within one schema. Since this is not going to change any time soon, it would be better to have the code generator define all fields as optional. Since typically a type is not defined from scratch but copy/pasted from the browser debugger console, it avoids a lot of unnecessary type issues in FlowScript for which the generated code needs to be adapted.

  19. We request the functionality to export logs directly from the OData connector into CSV or XML format. This feature would streamline data management processes by allowing users to extract logs efficiently and in preferred formats, enhancing accessibility and usability of logged information.

  20. Currently, the SOAP Webservice connector supports OAuth 2 Password Credentials Type in Design Time. However, there are instances where you need to authorize to an HTTP GET endpoint to get the WSDL definition. The workaround for this issue is to currebntly put the WSDL file on the server so authentication is not required to generate the connector. But it would be ideal to apply the current OAuth2 Password Credential Authorization to the WSDL retrieval GET operation.
