One of the worst problems is when literals are hard coded. It is really bad for maintainability, you have to change them one by one and you can never know if you have changed them all. I would like it if there was a way to have an overview of all the places where hard coded strings are used for coding. For example if a text is used in an if-statement or together with an '=' mark it as a finding.

In ODC - we should have the option to add a folder to app applications into it. Then when deploying you just select that folder with the multiple applications in it and that folder will then queue each application one by one to deploy. If there are warnings or errors on the deployment then it should warn the user. But the whole process of deploying single applications at a time is not very friendly. I do not think that by having the folder you will change the architecture. It is just automating a process

I know that for the purposes of the existing master class, the exercise fits perfectly, but it is done in version 9 and I think it should be upgraded to version 11. Just as it would be useful for everyone to have other exercises that cover more business process topics.Being a topic where there are so many topics to learn, it would be helpful to add more thematic content with more exercises for your learning to be bigger.Cheers,Nuno Verdasca

We need fine-grained control over indexes. There are things like "fill factor" which we can set through SQL Management Studio, but we cannot set through Service Studio. This is a problem for 3 reasons: 1. Who knows when a deploy will wipe it out? 2. Customers on the OutSystems cloud do not have access to the DB to add it. 3. We love to manage everything through proper OutSystems tools! J.Ja

Hello OutSystems Community, When searching for components in the Forge, one of the critical factors for many of us is the Application Object (AO) count. This is especially important for managing infrastructure costs and complexity. The Problem: Currently, the only way to determine an asset's AO count is to open its details page. This process becomes inefficient and time-consuming when you are evaluating multiple assets to find one that fits within a specific AO budget. You have to click into each asset, check the number, go back, and repeat. My Idea: I propose adding a new filter to the Forge search sidebar that allows us to specify a range for the Application Object (AO) count. This could be a simple interface with two fields: Minimum AOs Maximum AOs This would allow us to instantly narrow down the search results to only show assets that meet our specific AO requirements. For example, a developer could search for all assets that have between 1 and 10 AOs. Benefits: Saves Significant Time: Drastically speeds up the process of finding suitable components. Improves AO Management: Allows developers and architects to quickly find assets that fit within their licensing limits or technical budget. Better Decision Making: Helps in quickly assessing the potential complexity of a component before even clicking on it. I believe this would be a small but powerful enhancement to the Forge experience for the entire community. If you agree this would be useful, please vote up! Thanks for your consideration.

If a developer uploads a forge component, that has dependencies for other forge component, and that component is owned by another developer. When changes is applied to the dependencies like: discontinuing the consumed version, uploading a new version to fix issues, ... etc. Let the consumer know that changes had been made, to upload new version of their asset if needed.

Certification exam for each type of course is difficult one, sometimes we know the answer but due to lack of sample questions practice we choose wrong answers during exam. Since exam is associate with some cost, so it will not be worthy for candidate to loss the Exam in any category.We can put some validation condition to have the access of Question Bank, like: Training videos should be mark as completed, Sample APP should be created and submitted by candidate's personal environment and candidate should have attended Boot camp related to it.This will increase the chance of clearing the exam as well as boost the confidence in candidate. We can also associate some price to these question bank.

In an Outsystems project we find ourselves building in an application in the middle of a landscape where communication with web services is not always there. This situation makes it very difficult to test a complete flow since dependencies of other systems are quite often down.In order to surpass this situation making the application more independent for testing purposes, the idea is to try to have a module with a mock of those services and just changing the entry point on DEV / TST environment to make it work.The problem is the external parties' web services have hyphens ("-") on the URL path of the web methods and when we are creating the mock service to expose, Service Studio considers the "-" an illegal character.

It would be great to have a diferent icon on actions that are using the cache property, in order to be visual distinguishable. Automatically because you can do it manually. This could be very usefull when debugging to see the code and to see that the action is cached

In O11 we can end other debugging sessions by republishing the module. However, this does not work in ODC. It would be nice if there is a button next to each "active session" in the Users section of the Debugger tab in ODC Studio. With the click of the button, the debug session of the other account would end. This way, we can make sure that the app continues running normally without hitting the debugger activated by other accounts, in case the other users are unable to end their session. Security-wise it would be nice to give this option only to organizational accounts with elevated roles, e.g. the tech lead role.
