Product Releases
and Updates

What’s new in Workflow Builder? Exactly that: an in-app ‘What’s new’ section where you can check the latest Workflow Builder features as they’re released! But there’s more: you can also now customize the email notifications you send to requesters and operators. And finally, you can add two more field types to your forms: multiple checkbox and email address.

The latest version of the Case Management framework (CMf) is now available! New features include the ability to easily manage access permissions at different case levels. The system now automatically verifies if the user has the necessary write access permissions and automatically denies access if they are missing. Install the OutTracker showcase app, built with the CMf, by choosing the "Start from an App" option when creating your application in Service Studio. If need be, it will automatically install the CMf, as well as the updated OutTracker app.

No more jumps! In the quest to evolve the Architecture Dashboard into a more autonomous tool, users are now able to have a complete experience through solving findings. There’s no need to navigate away to search for consumed elements information. We added the required information on dependencies and the list of elements consumed with each architecture finding.

Meet a powerful new help experience within Service Studio, available right when you need it. Right-click any component for contextual help from OutSystems sources such as documentation, community, and blog posts. If you want to search all available resources, click on the new “What do you want to do?” button to find what you need without leaving your development environment.

You can now visualize and test screens before publishing your app with added preview functionalities in Workflow Builder. Preview the form screen whenever you add or remove form fields. For case fields, see how they look in the back-office screen whenever you add or remove case fields in any manual activities.

The latest Mobile Apps Build Service (MABS) version is now generally available! MABS 7.0 uses Android 11 (API level 30) and iOS 14 SDKs and supports Android X. Get the latest version to ensure you remain compliant with the necessary requirements to publish your Android apps on Google Play and your iOS apps on the App Store. For further details, check the MABS 7.0 release notes.

If you have client-side certificates, you can now quickly scale out your systems in self-service. By supplying your certificates to the OutSystems team, they will install them to the front-end servers on your behalf. In this way, OutSystems applications can consume web services that require client-side authentication, as well as those that aren’t exposed to the internet through VPN connection.

You can now manage your multiple environments in Service Studio. When logging in, or switching environments, you can quickly search through your environment list, remove those that are no longer in use, or assign a recognizable name to each environment (which really comes in handy when you have dozens of them). These are some of the new features that make it easier for you to maintain your ever-growing environment list.

Accelerate screen composition to show single or multiple locations on a map with OutSystems Maps, a component that supports map-based interfaces. Based on the Google Maps API component, it’s fully customizable and adaptable, allowing you to change map behaviors, change the visual aspects of the map, add markers, and customize them according to brand guidelines. You can also speed up the application development time with new screen templates that show multiple markers on a map and a detail for each location, combining the component usage with beautiful UI.

You can now receive your LifeTime permissions in Architecture Dashboard with a new probe version that improves customization and security. Individual contributors and teams can now tackle their technical debt, isolating it from the other teams' information. Better yet, there's no need to reconfigure or create your IT user again. All your data will be there from the start. Check our documentation for more information on how to best use the new probe in your environment.
