Hi all!

We, your Technical Knowledge team at OutSystems, are always striving to improve our documentation and training to better serve you, our readers from the Community.

We regularly gather information from several sources on how each page is being used and its overall score, based on your invaluable "thumbs up/down" feedback. We also take note of the written feedback we get from the Community. After gathering this information, we perform our own investigation to determine what we can do to make these pages more useful. Our goal is to help you find the information you need quickly so you can get back to creating awesome apps.

Here’s what’s changed this month:

Online Training

• We've created this amazing new guided path on Delivering OutSystems Projects. Please take a look and rate it and also give your feedback!
  
  
• We've launched a brand new course: Modeling Business Processes. This is our most recent step towards filling the knowledge gap in the processes area. Stay tuned for more in the upcoming weeks!

• Another course has been published, this time on Light BPT that covers processing large amounts of data with Light Processes.

• We are continuing to expand the work of replacing our voice-overs with real voices. We've updated the Local Storage course with a new human voice-over.
  
  

Product Documentation Updates

• Based on our users’ helpful feedback, we completely reorganized the OutSystems UI reactive/mobile documentation, and now the patterns documentation is organized in the same way as the live style guide.

• We've added information to the technical preview Multilingual Reactive Web and Mobile Apps on how to translate system components.

• We've updated Integrating a model in your app so that it matches the changed property name within a system action of the ML Builder extension.

• Harden the protection of mobile apps with AppShield now contains more information about obfuscation and performance.

• With the new release of the Camera Plugin, we created new and improved product documentation.

• The first version of the new Barcode Plugin documentation was published!

• With the release of three new Firebase-based mobile plugins, we published an updated document on how to add these plugins to your app.

• Also, working from our users' feedback we improved the Create a One to Many Relationship article to provide an easy way for the users to know more about delete rules.

• You can now edit the data of your entities directly in Service Studio and we love it! Check the introduction to edit data article and learn how to do the basic tasks of adding, removing or editing records!

• Service Studio command line has been provided as a reference for the commands available to execute common development tasks using the CLI of your choice, such as opening or merging modules, and creating new applications.

Integrations Builder 

• You can create integrations with SharePoint Online! As always check out the topic on how to use Integration Builder, and then jump into the new SharePoint Online integration doc to learn about the prerequisites and other details of this integration.
  
  
• This integration has a few unique characteristics that we mention in the Structure of generated integrations.

Architecture Dashboard 

• We added information about the time filter to our tutorials, but we also completely revamped the tutorials themselves! Check out the improved tutorials for Architects, Technical Leads, and Developers!
  
  

Experience Builder

• We added a step on our tutorial to ensure new users know how to replace flows, and we also updated the reference tables inside the Experience Builder Components package reference.

• The new release of Experience Builder includes several improvements, including the addition of new signup and login flows, and the ability to replace certain flows by other flows of the same type (without needing to reconnect all the endpoints). Here are the release notes
  
  

Workflow Builder

• The new release of Workflow Builder enables you to design workflows with multiple paths executed in parallel. Here are the release notes.
  
  
• Also, we added a new section in our docs that lets you know why and how to use this new capability!

Case Management framework

• The new release of the Case Management framework added improved search actions for Cases and Activities and also added a few extra access control checks on service actions. 

• You can check out the updated topic on how to get a list of activities assigned to a case worker and also, take a look at the new topic on how to get a list of cases for a requester. 

• Furthermore, the list of actions that take access control into account has been updated, and we also made sure to update the reference documentation for the Case Services API and the Case Configurations API.

Documentation for enterprise ecosystems

• We’ve released Monitoring OutSystems applications that covers the several monitoring options available, including enterprise grade extensibility options with tools like Firebase and Elastic.
