Warn about unused aggregates in (screen) actions

Aggregates & Queries
Development Environment 10.0.902.0

When we develop actions and specially change them later we sometimes remove code in the flow.

When a variable is not used anymore after changing / deleting some code in the flow service center warns you about this (yellow line under the variable and a message in the warning panel).

When an aggregate is not used anymore service center does not warn you about this.
I would like service center to warn me so I can check if the aggregate can be deleted or not.

In the example below the GetUsers aggregate is not used.

Maybe it counts for advanced sql queries too but in there there might update, insert, delete statements which you want to happen. But it's a warning and the developer can hide the warning when he has validated it and it's still needed.

I wouldn't add it to adv. queries because it would possibly generate more false positives than actually scenarios where it would be useful.

Love the idea though! :)

Hey Johan,

I'm glad to announce that your idea has been implemented recently and now aggregates not being used will trigger a warning so that you can cleanup unused "code". You can find your contributions in latest Service Studio's version release notes:

Hope you like it ;)
