AI-Powered Automatic Descriptions for OutSystems Elements
Created on 24 Feb 2025
Huarlem Lima
8
Proper documentation is essential for maintaining and collaborating on OutSystems projects, but manually filling in descriptions can be time-consuming and often overlooked. I propose an AI-powered feature that automatically suggests descriptions for elements such as: Variables Actions Screens Blocks Entities The AI would analyze the element’s name, its usage in the code, and overall context to generate an accurate description. The developer would then simply accept or edit the suggestion , making the process faster and more efficient. Benefits: ✅ Time-saving documentation process – Developers can focus more on implementation and less on manually writing descriptions. ✅ Standardization – Generated descriptions would follow a consistent and clear format, improving readability and maintainability. ✅ Better collaboration – Teams can quickly understand the purpose of each element, even if they weren’t involved in its creation. ✅ Easier onboarding for new developers – New team members can familiarize themselves with the codebase more quickly. This feature would enhance documentation quality and significantly boost developer productivity in OutSystems projects. If you find this feature useful, upvote and share your thoughts!

Be notified when there's a new entry in the What's New page
Created on 03 Apr 2018

OutSystems created a what's new page to keep everybody aware of what is being released. That's great! But there's no way to be notified every time there is a new entry :(In my case, since I want to be aware and check every awesome stuff released, that would help me be updated.My suggestion is to have an RSS feed or an email (you could use the daily community updates email).Thanks :)

It would be awesome if there was the possibility of Uploading & Publishing multiple modules at once through Service Center.

Configurable Service Action Timeout
Created on 24 Apr 2019
Matheus Medeiros
36
When calling a service action, the platform seem to internally set a fixed 100 seconds timeout on the request, so if the action takes longer then that, a "time out" exception is raised on the "Client side" but the action will keep running on the "server side".I'm not sure if i'm missing a setting here, but in case i'm not, my suggestion would be to either raise the 100 seconds timeout or make it configurable when calling service actions.

Allow Ignore foreign keys to static entities defined in Library modules
Created on 14 Jan 2022
Leonardo Fernandes
25
Service Studio prevents creating foreign keys that reference a static entity defined in a Library module.This makes sense for Protect and Delete rules, because the static entity defined in a Library module is not backed by any database tabe.However, IMO nothing is preventing us from using a foreign key with Ignore rule. These foreign keys will not have any database constraints, and will just be syntactic sugar to their underlying type (Integer, Long Integer or Text) but with the additional type checking and suggestions we come to expect from Identifier types.For example, it should be possible to define static entities that augment the capabilities of OutSystems UI by using this pattern, as described in https://medium.com/@leonardo-monteiro-fernandes/extending-static-entities-part-1-bec8b3b7631cThis would also allow values obtained from SOAP enumerates (which are mapped to non-persistent static entities) to be stored in database entities, without discarding the type information.

Do not allow to publish when there is a circular dependency
Created on 28 Sep 2021

To keep the code cleaner and avoid circular dependencies, it would be interesting not to let a module publish when you had to create circular dependencies.

Allow filtering on espace status in Service Center
Created on 29 Apr 2013
Kurt Vandevelde

Often, I want to get a list of all espaces with broken and/or missing references.It would be a nice feature to have a combobox on top of the espace and extension list which allows to filter based on status- all- all ok- missing references- broken references- missing & broken references

Design a New Subfolder Structure
Created on 08 Feb
Ahmed Hamed
1
There is a limitation in OutSystems Service Studio where folders cannot be nested inside other folders. As a result, application elements must be kept in a flat structure, which reduces clarity, organization, and long-term maintainability. Why not allow developers the flexibility to create a better and more structured folder management system?

Import an external table as Expose Read Only
Created on 10 Sep 2020
João Gonçalves
31
Add the possiblity to configure the Expose Read Only property when importing an external table via integration studio. This comes in handy when importing reference data tables from another system where you don't want the ability to write to the table, preventing create, update or deletes by not having those CRUD operations inside the extension module.This would mitigate data accidents by devs and truly feel like a static entity but only external.

Warning when quering data in viewstate
Created on 10 Oct 2018
João Marques

Hi,I would like to suggest that it might be helpful if Service Studio alerts when using preparation data on screen actions, which increases hugely the view state and it would be aligned with the performance best practices .
