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.

Exciting news! Write operations for SAP OData connector are here! After the General Availability of the SAP OData connector on March 24, OutSystems now updates it with write operations. In ODC Studio, write operations can be performed through entity actions for simple tasks, or through server actions when working across multiple entities. All write operations adhere to SAP business rules to ensure compliance and consistency.

Gaining insights into user behavior is essential for refining your app and delivering an exceptional user experience. We’re excited to announce new user experience data in the Analytics tab on the ODC Portal.

This update enriches performance data with detailed user insights and adoption metrics, empowering developers to diagnose issues faster and gain a deeper understanding of app usage. With these new insights, you can now see exactly how users are impacted by performance issues or errors, which is particularly beneficial for complex, multi-region applications where rapid troubleshooting is crucial.

Now, the Analytics dashboard features near-real-time data on active users, enabling you to track usage patterns, response times, and error rates across global geolocations. Additionally, browser analytics reveal how users access your application, providing valuable insights into usage and adoption preferences.

The Workflow Editor now includes powerful new language elements, enabling even greater customization and control over business processes. Additionally, Human Activities can now be assigned to specific roles for more streamlined task management.

• Wait Node: Pause workflows until specific events, like data synchronization with an external system, are triggered—ensuring processes only continue when conditions are met.
• Conditional Start: Trigger workflows based on predefined events, like initiating a cancellation when specific conditions occur.
• Terminate: Define specific endpoints for workflows, applicable in any flow (main or conditional) to ensure processes conclude as intended.
• Role-based Human Activities: Assign tasks not only to individual users but also to public roles.

Data Fabric’s library of pre-built connectors gets an exciting new addition: SAP BAPI. Following the SAP OData connector, this new addition further enhances integration with SAP products. The Business Application Programming Interface (BAPI) is a standard SAP API designed to seamlessly connect non-SAP applications with SAP business processes, allowing for data entry directly into the SAP system.

Getting started is easy:

1. In ODC Portal, create your SAP BAPI connection and select the specific BAPIs relevant to your use case.
2. In ODC Studio, incorporate BAPI server actions into your logic to develop apps that integrate with SAP.

This connector opens up new possibilities to extend your existing data creating powerful new experiences.
