  1. Some customers need to run Flow Connect on their premises (on-prem) for different reasons.

    1. Data requirements – Strict data security/privacy/legal requirements where the data is not allowed to leave the premises. For these types of customers, it is essential that everything runs on-prem since they don’t want any connection to the outside networks.
      Some examples:
      • Aerospace & defense
      • Defense manufacturing
      • Healthcare
      • Government and public sector

    2. Low-latency requirements - Some customers have low-latency requirements with systems handling a high volume of transactions/executions. Typically, their existing infrastructure/external systems are already on-prem due to the exact reason. For these…

  2. There is an issue with screen transitions in both Flow Classic and Connect. Currently, users scan a barcode into a text input field using a scanner. After scanning and selecting "Next," the input field remains active, allowing users to continue scanning or typing even while the query is executing. This behavior is consistent across both Flow Classic and Connect.

    Ideally, once a barcode is scanned and the transition or query is triggered, the input field should be locked or disabled to prevent further input until the process completes. This would help avoid confusion, as users might mistakenly believe that multiple…

  3. In File Gallery element, it would be great to show (or enable to show) the whole filename value, including the file extension.
    For example, in the file gallery I have a couple of files shown, but I want to download only the excel file. Without showing files' extension, I have to download all of them to figure out whihc one is that filetype I'm looking for.

  4. For customers who have shop floor employees, having them remember the username and password for their logins can be difficult, especially given the amount of times they need to login in one day. We need to find a way to make logging in to the application simple and streamlined for the user - ideally for the windows client, but also for the web client. In IFS Cloud, they offer a way to auto login to the client.

    In IFS 10 timeclock, they offer the ability to save userid and password as properties.

  5. As a customer there are small changes between TEST and PROD environments. It would be nice to be able to run diagnostic mode against a TEST environment and see the errors that one might get there with variables.

  7. Currently, the image annotation has no way of determining if an image is edited or not. This means, that each time an image is either edited or not, I need to re-save it to the database. This is a performance issue since at times, I can present 20 images in a File Gallery and have no way of determining which ones I should save and which ones I should not save to the database.

  8. Can the text input-element be auto-sized or be manually be re-sized when entering a long text? Now it's a super small text box with a lot of scrolling. Didn't the old web client have this function where the user could re-size the text area if needed?

  9. In the calendar object in Flow, it is possible to select a date. But the date cannot be transferred to a user step selecting a button. Hopefully, you will add that functionality.

  10. Currently, when we initiate a list selection we can start it closed or fully extended.
    Ideally, we should be able to just show the categories and extend them. Currently they are always fully extended.

    If we have a large list of over 20 items, the grouping could help with navigating easier. Like this, we need to close them first to see them as an overview. There are pictures attached to illustrate this.

  11. Currently, the inability to run offline flows in debug mode in Studio complicates development and testing, significantly increasing development time. Resolving this issue soon will streamline the process and improve efficiency

    We are happy to inform you that development work has begun on your requested feature. Our product team has assigned resources and is actively working on implementing it. We will keep you updated on its progress.

  12. Our framework is currently stringent in how to work offline: you download your sources (like in the morning), start working (deliberately offline) and your transactions are synced as soon as you are back online.
    In many circumstances Flow users in service do not know whether they will have internet while working though and they work offline foregoing on many advantages of being online.
    Ideally, we would have a variable available in our start variables (like DeviceId and ClientType) so that in the flows we can take different paths depending on whether the user has internet or not - analog to…

    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.

  13. Currently, Flow Studio allows developers to view the XML code of their workflows by pressing F7, but there is no direct way to integrate these files with GitHub for version control and code storage, only server side in the Flow Server.

    Proposed solution is to implement a direct integration feature between Flow Studio and GitHub, as an alternative to Flow version management. This feature would enable users to seamlessly push the XML files of their workflows directly to a GitHub repository from within Flow Studio.

  14. Flow Classic has a way to send push notifications via swimlanes. I have never been a fan of using swimlanes, but you could at least use them to send push notifications.

    In Flow Connect, I'd like to see Novacura implement a "connector" that could perform the same functionality. The connector could: iterate through a list of users, require a Push Notification message, optionally pass in an app GUID that would "forward" the user once they click on push notification to.

    Bonus points if you could use a websocket backend so this could also be implemented in the webclients as well…

  15. Today, a customer can download offline data. But if the app crashes, or the user in the field (who is offline) makes changes and then app crashes or they quit out by accident, its confusing to the user as to what has been completed. To the user, it feels like the data has been lost.

    An example, lets say I have an offline flow which downloads 10 records in a table. While offline, I add 2 new records to that table, and go to the next step. If the app crashes when the app reopens, and the flow is rerun,…

  17. In Flow Connect users can access apps quickly through favorites section on the Home screen.

    In the future we would like to give users quick one click access to even more apps by opening up new possibilities to customize the client home screen.
    Users would be able to see a large number of apps and launch them directly from the home screen without navigating a folder structure.

  18. It would be a nice feature if we could show pictures/logos in buttons (and not just unicode characters).
    Similarly to the new 'list input with picture' feature.

  19. In many cases user would like to use the data in Novacura Clients in other apps. Like to copy text from a work order and past into an e-mail. Or to fetch the work order number and query in another app.

    Today it works in Android client and of course the web client. It doesn't work in the iOS client.

    ==>Make all clients similar with same capabilities.

    Thank you for voting on this feature request. Our product team is currently reviewing it and evaluating its feasibility and potential impact. We will keep you updated on any progress.

  20. It would be nice to have a feature that can make a cell in a grid read-only or editable with a similar option to 'Cell Color'.
    For example, if the contidion is true/false , then the cell is read-only or editable.
    On the attached picture, yellow cells are editable, white cells are read-only.
    Now, both 'Value' and 'Value List' columns are editable.
