Hello,Since it is very hard to get access to the database credentials for the Outsystems enterprise licenses, it would be very useful to have a button to export aggregate/advance query results to an excel file, and the service studio could download the file.This feature is very handy for QA environments when sometimes developers don't have access to deploy code but they can see it.Regards,

Problem: Currently, OutSystems Community forum users have to do a full browser page refresh to see new questions or answers. This leads to missed conversations, outdated thread views while writing replies, and duplicate answers being posted. Proposed Improvements: 1. Auto-refresh post list The forum list should silently update in the background every 30–60 seconds. New posts should appear with a subtle highlight — no full page reload needed. 2. "Refresh List" button (partial refresh only) A dedicated refresh button that reloads only the posts list — not the entire page. Users keep their scroll position, active filters, and tabs intact. 3. Conflict warning before submitting an answer When a user is typing a reply and someone else posts an answer in the meantime, show a warning before submission: "New answers were added while you were writing. View them before submitting?" — preventing duplicate or redundant answers. 4. "New replies" toast inside open thread When reading a thread, if new replies arrive, show a non-intrusive toast: "3 new replies — click to load." User stays in reading context without losing scroll position. 5. "New questions" badge on forum nav Show a live badge count on the Forums section when new posts arrive, so users notice activity even while browsing other sections. 6. Live accepted answer update If an answer gets accepted while a user is viewing the thread, the "Accepted" badge should appear live — without requiring a reload. Visual Reference (AI-generated mockups): To better illustrate the proposed changes, I have attached two AI-generated reference mockups below: Image 1 shows the forum list view with the new "Refresh" button and "2 new" badge visible in the toolbar alongside existing Sort and Translate controls. Image 2 shows an open thread view with the "New answers added while reading" toast bar, the conflict warning before reply submission, and how the overall thread experience would feel with live updates. These are for visual reference only and not final designs — the actual implementation details are at the team's discretion. Expected Impact: Fewer duplicate answers, faster community response times, and a significantly better forum experience overall.

Adding Native Semantic Search capabilities within the OutSystems platform. This would allow developers to implement search features that understand the user's intent and the contextual meaning of their queries. Key Features: Vector Embedding Support: Built-in capability to generate and store vector embeddings for database records directly within the platform. Natural Language Queries: Users can search using phrases like "fresh products near me" instead of specific product names, and the system should understand the intent. Multilingual Semantic Search: Since many apps are regional, the search should understand queries in local languages like Malayalam and map them to relevant results even if the keywords don't match exactly. AI Orchestrator Integration: Seamless integration with OutSystems AI Orchestrator to leverage models like Google Gemini or OpenAI for retrieving search results. Why it matters: Integrating semantic search will revolutionize how users interact with data in OutSystems apps. It improves user experience by providing more relevant results, which is critical for the success of systems.

In poor connection circumstances it's desperate to see never ending process. So I want to cancel it and continue instead.....

Just like Service Studio, it would be great to have an auto-update feature in Integration Studio as well. This would streamline the upgrade process and ensure consistency across tools.

Hello OutSystems,Currently on order to open link in another tab, we are giving extended property to the link as "target = _blank" but this doesn't work for buttons.If we want to open link in another tab on button click, we need to style link to look like button.So it would be nice to have this extended property "target = _blank" is working same for buttons.These are the complaints due to this issue https://www.outsystems.com/forums/discussion/18000/link-is-not-opening-in-new-tab/ https://www.outsystems.com/forums/discussion/11285/how-to-open-an-external-url-in-a-new-tab/Thanks and Regards,Suraj Borade

Why hasn't OutSystems given a thought about having Parallel Actions? If OutSystems can give me the ability to call two or more server actions or two or more client actions and collate their response would be really great.

Let me start by asking NOT to merge this with the mobile version of this idea. https://www.outsystems.com/ideas/6575/lifetime-analytics-to-enabled-included-mobile-applicationsThese ideas have been merged in the past, but it is about 2 different things. The old mobile idea was put to "not now", but we don't have an official response on the reactive web question.The lifetime analytics are a great selling point for the platform, but without Reactive nor Mobile being available, this loses a lot of potential. I can understand for not going the mobile route, but reactive should be included in my opinion.

When you're making changes in a module that sits low in the architecture canvas, you need to  manually republish many modules up the layers before you're able to test your changes.It would greatly reduce the pain involved if we could create something like a "1-Click Publish queue" in Service Studio and add modules to it. Then, with 1 click, SS would publish the modules in the queue in the order they were added.Suggestion: select the modules in SS with Ctrl+Click, right click, then "Add to new queue".
