OutSystems continues to simplify and accelerate app development, introducing the Entity Actions Wrappers Accelerator. Inspired by one of the most popular community ideas, this new feature automates the encapsulation of entity actions into Server Actions, reducing the manual effort required to follow best practices for maintainability, security, and testing.

CRUD wrappers are a widely recommended practice for OutSystems development, but creating them can be time-consuming, even with low-code. With this update, ensuring consistent database operations across applications has become faster and more efficient.

The Entity Actions Wrappers Accelerator is now available in both Service Studio and ODC Studio.

We’ve added new monitoring and analytics features to ODC Workflows. Users can dive deep into workflow execution, identify potential gaps, and discover opportunities for improvement, all while deriving valuable insights. A new dedicated tab for Workflows is now available in ODC logs, where users can search, analyze, and monitor activity information such as status changes, assignments, duration, and errors.

The latest release of AI Agent Builder now empowers users to integrate multiple data sources or files into their AI agents, enhancing the depth and relevance of AI-generated responses. This advancement enables the incorporation of diverse data repositories, such as Azure AI Search and Amazon Kendra, as well as PDF, TXT & VTT file into AI-powered applications. For example, a customer service agent can now retrieve product details from a knowledge base while also referencing troubleshooting guides stored in PDF files, ensuring more holistic support.

This provides:

• Context-rich answers by combining information from multiple sources.
• Improved user satisfaction, as the agent delivers tailored and accurate responses.
• Deeper insights, enabling users to access knowledge aggregated from various domains.

This update solidifies the AI Agent Builder as a flexible, robust tool for developing intelligent, data-driven applications across industries. Its ability to unify diverse data sources ensures organizations can create AI agents that are more customized, efficient, and powerful.

We're excited to announce a significant enhancement in ODC extensibility capabilities with the release of REST APIs to allow the creation of scripts, automation, and apps that extend the capabilities provided out-of-the-box with ODC. We are allowing customers to create and manage API Clients, which allows them to call REST APIs from different functional domains. With this release, we are also making available the User and Access Management API and the Portfolio API, which allow customers to further adapt ODC governance to their specific needs, achieving greater flexibility and control over users and access management.
