OMNIA – Low-Code Business Application Development Platform

Today we’re going to demonstrate just how easily you can build beautiful interfaces for your OMNIA web applications.

Today we’ve got an apparently simple, but extremely powerful feature to announce.

Exporting your application lists directly to a .csv file is now possible directly on your usual list element.

Our latest addition to the Command Line Interface will allow you to import everything from your current spreadsheets and automatically create new agents, users, data sources, or any other type of entity. In summary, you’ll be able to generate entire OMNIA applications from a spreadsheet.

Today we’ll be elaborating a simple example to demonstrate how to perform such integrations. In this example we’ll be adding a simple ListView web component, that will use AccuWeather’s API as a Data Source to show the forecast for the next 5 days.

One of the nightmares of IT Departments is managing user access to company applications.

Imagine that your company uses Google Docs, Microsoft Teams and Trello for its day to day work. Now imagine you hire a new colleague. You would need to grant access to all of these service providers, individually, and, maybe more important, remove them when he leaves(!).

Now imagine that instead of three services, your company uses ten, and instead of hiring one colleague, you hire five. You see where we’re going with this…

Creating a new tenant is a simple task, right? Just like adding a user to that tenant. A couple of clicks and the job is done.

However, “simple” does not equal “scalable”, and repeating simple tasks to exhaustion provides a very poor user experience.

Today we’re taking the first step into the automation of some of those tasks, with the new OMNIA Command Line Interface (CLI)!

If you’ve been keeping up with our recent blog posts, you’re aware that Web Components are a big part of our platform’s extensibility power, however, exploring them was a hassle. We needed an effective way to explore all our shared Web Components, while also enhancing their development experience.

Our latest platform update brought big changes to the development experience, with its entire focus on the development of State Machines. With this new feature, developing your custom State Machines and their respective elements becomes a much simpler, faster and intuitive process.

Recently we’ve shared our introductory post about our latest feature, State Machines, detailing all it’s basic features and user interface. Today we’re diving a little deeper into the feature, detailing and exemplifying more advanced configurations and possibilities that it contains.

We’re very glad to announce our latest platform feature, Behaviour Cache, and we have some performance results we would like to share with you.

This feature was aimed at decreasing loading times for several scenarios, among them are reading integration configurations, data request from one or more entities, etc. With this new feature, you will be able to cache any object you’ve developed in your web application and decrease overall loading times.
