When working on a large project it is common to do fairly much the same deployment each sprint into our QA environments. It would be great if we could setup the deployment in lifetime, give it a name and save for future deployments. We can sort of do this at the moment but you can only have one saved plus it saves the current versions of everything so if espaces are updated in the source environment you don't get those updates when you finally go back in and deploy the saved plan. It will still need to run all the normal validation checks each time and allow us to add additional applications before hitting the deploy but would at least save time adding all the same common ones each time. Yes we could do this by creating a solution and deploying via servicecenter but then it is a multi step process and we don't get all the additional reference checks and auto including from the validation step.

Hi Team, I hope you're doing well. I want to request a feature improvement regarding Table behavior. Currently, when moving a table header row/column (for example, moving the 5th header to the 3rd position), the corresponding data rows do not move with it and stay in their original place. If OutSystems could provide a native feature where the corresponding data rows automatically shift and align whenever a header is reordered (and vice versa), it would be a huge help for developers and greatly improve UI flexibility. Thank you!

It would be nice to have Service Studio in a linux machine without the need of a vmware or VirtualBox. Even if it was with wine. I've heard about Mono. Is it true that with Mono you can run Service Studio in linux?

With the introduction of the Dynamic Case Management Framework, OutSystems advocates to use GUID as a unique Text Identifier (see https://success.outsystems.com/Documentation/Case_Management/Create_a_case_management_app ).Apart from that GUID as identifiers have some other use cases too:Less "hackable" URLs to your application pages than when using Integer IdentifiersLess meaningful Identifiers (Employee number 2 is probably longer with the company than Employee number 58)You want the data to be uniquely-identified, no matter where it came from.You need to be able to combine data from difference sources with little-to-no chance of duplicate GUIDs.Furthermore, you don't want or don't care about the users needing to remember an ID themselvesIt would be nice if there is more support in the Platform:Add a new datatype called GUID, with an AutoNumber option.Add a popup menu option to generate a GUID and set it as a string literal for any attribute of datatype GUIDAdd built-in feature to also generate a GUID for Mobile and Reactive, as it is currently only available server side. Yes Forge component exists to help you, but this should be build in.

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.

I would like to suggest an improvement to the "Apply Settings to the Factory" notification displayed in the Service Center when there are pending configurations. Currently, this notification only informs that changes need to be applied, without specifying who made the modification or what configuration was changed . This creates a lack of traceability, especially in collaborative environments where multiple people manage configurations, making it unclear who performed the last modification. Suggested Solution: Display the User – Add the name of the user who made the last pending change to the notification. Detail the Modified Configurations – Include a summary of the changes made or provide a link to a change history screen. This improvement would enhance transparency, security, and efficiency in platform management, preventing conflicts or unintended configuration applications. Best regards, Valdemiro Veigas

It would be nice if OutSystems would provide a reactive version of the Data Grid component.Given the amount of post on the forum regarding data grid related topics, it is fair to say it is a popular component that developers use. With the shift from tradional web to reactive web applications, it would be a pitty to not have this component available as a reactive version.

It would be interesting if the action of OnparametersChange action indicate WHICH parameter has changed.We often need to do different actions or refresh according to the updated parameter and this information would be very useful.

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.

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.
