Feature Request: Dual auth for Skuid NLX without deploying SSO

Natively within Salesforce there is a handy option to add a new record if you don’t find the one you’re looking for in a lookup/reference field. This would be an awesome addition to Skuid, if it doesn’t already exist somewhere that I’ve overlooked. I envision being able to launch a new modal from within the search or something along those lines here on this screen:

Feature requests: Show the Object URL in the data model. Add another data source action to download the target object. It would work just like the current download action, but it would add the query string parameter to force the download of the object rather than open it in a browser (something like: ?response-content-disposition=attachment:%20FILENAME.EXT) Allow visibility and editing of the tags and meta-data

Make Skuid pages respect the Sales Process associated with Salesforce Opportunity record types. By default, when I use the Stage field from Opportunities, I see all the of the active values, instead of those specifically relevant to the record type in question. In Salesforce, there is a record called a ‘Sales Process’ that defined the relevant stages per record type - which is atypical to how picklists are generally controlled by record type outside of Opportunities. Leads may also follow a similar architecture. I’m using a UI Only field to manually narrow down the results to the relevant ones - which works fine, but adds a layer of management to any adjustments.

I can’t find a way to sort a reference field drop down (except alpha). It would be nice to be able to set a sort by field on a reference field. That way you could add a sort field to your table and use it for sorting in your reference field. Reference field values (Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum) In default alpha order, this present as (Bronze, Gold, Platinum, Silver) If you added a sort field to your reference table (1 - Bronze, 2 - Silver, 3 - Gold, 4 - Platinum) and we could tell the reference field to sort by that field, our drop down menu would be correct.

We’ve identified an issue in Salesforce’s Spring ’22 release preventing all attempts to install or upgrade the Skuid managed package in any type of org (production, sandbox, developer). There is no impact on current Skuid builders and users. If you run into this issue, please send an email to support@skuid.com with: Company name org ID Skuid version Salesforce case number (if established) Whether this is a new install or an upgrade We are diligently and rapidly working to resolve the situation with Salesforce (case number 41884936). Please add our case number to your ticket, if established.

Hi, I haven’t been able to find it, if this info exists I would appreciate link to it. I notice that Skuid tends to release maintenance changes every 2 weeks, on Tuesday/Wednesday (GMT timezone) usually. Though, is there something more official? And, maybe for other release types as well? It would be helpful if there was. We would like to run through some in houses tests before we update to a newer release. For example, if we were planning to push changes to production on Wednesday but few hours ago (or a day ago) a new release was released, so now we can only upgrade production to newest one. Or. I don’t know what restrictions SF places on exchange apps, but making the last few maintenance packages install-able instead of one. Thank you, Lukas

Hi, Skuid! It would be great to have a feature in the UI to reorder tabs like the ← and → buttons for reordering divisions. Drag and drop in the UI sometimes doesn’t behave as expected and I often have to resort to moving tabs in the XML when there are a large number. Thanks! Meredith

For the field editor with the Field Layout type “Label above field”, the field-editor-items of different columns are not aligned in the same line. If a field-editor-item has no value then the height of that field-editor-item is less compared to the field-editor-item with value. If we provide the fixed height for the field-editor-item(by using nx-fieldtext Css class) this will resolve the issue at most of the places but if the field-editor-item data type is a checkbox the issue occurs again(since checkbox size is constant and we cannot resize it accordingly).

If a user has been inactive for a period of time (i.e. 20 minutes) I would like to automatically save the data in a couple of models and display a message. Is there an event in Skuid that allows us to do something like this?

Hello! Is there any way to display the on-screen confetti animation in the same way that it is possible for paths in Salesforce? Many thanks, Jesús

Hello, Skuid provides a lot already, being able to create models dynamically, attaching children to components, utils, etc. And I understand that Skuid wants people to use declarative interface as much as possible. Though, there are a lot of times we want to create something more dynamic, add additional features, or adjust how the component works. In those cases it’s a lot of hacking, recreating wheels and headbanging. For example: Changing the action called by the ‘Save’ button on Skuid Table. The save button just calls blockUi action and saves model, quite simple and it works like any other button. Currently, I could change it if I really wanted to, but I would have to go through the tree of children components or all button components, compare strings to make sure it matches, and (I think) use component.set(). - I explored it, but haven’t done it, as it would be too messy to find the button.

Hello, It would be nice, to be able to view the ‘XML’ (or anything else that is not binary) of the Design System/Theme. Furthermore, to be able to pull it down via skuid-sfdx. Currently, we’re avoiding using DSS since hard to push it to production. Either we have to keep track of all changes we make in DSS in a sandbox and then manually redo the steps in production. Or, download/import, hence override existing DSS, which is impossible when changes into Production are pushed from different sandboxes since each sandbox will have its variation of DSS. Best, Lukas

AWS is reporting service availability issues that are impacting functionality for some Skuid customers. We’re monitoring the situation and will publish an update here once AWS reports that it has been resolved. If you haven’t already subscribed, click here, followed by the subscribe button on the top right to receive email updates.

Would like to have a detailed How to guide or video for configuring DSS. In particular looking to be able to configure chart colors, series data, etc in DSS.

It would be nice to be able reset the columns in a table after the user has added or removed columns. Ideally, they would reset to the prior configuration for the user, but even a reset to the default configuration may suffice.

I’m curious if anyone has used Skuid within Salesforce’s Outlook Email Application pane. I think there could be some pretty interesting use cases in using Skuid within the outlook plugin. I just don’t know how to get started with loading the relevant records. I’m interested in any feedback from others who have implemented solutions in outlook using Skuid.

In V1 tables, there is an indication in the footer showing the number of rows you have selected (for mass updates, summary fields etc.). This seems to be missing from tables in V2. Our users find this indication helpful and have requested its return in our new V2 pages. V1: V2:

Would you like to customize the file name of an Excel file export on your table object? Skuid can do this. In this example the user wants to include the deal name and today’s date in the file name ie. Lakeland Tours (Worldstrides) 19-7-2021.xlsx Use these steps to make it happen: Use Global Merge to get to the record’s name Add a UI-only formula field that returns a date to the Task’s model. The formula is just “Today()” Under the “Export” properties of the table you you can put your merge syntax into the custom file name (see screenshot) Thanks to Mr.Ste

I was sitting in on a customer demonstration a few weeks ago. They had a really cool single page app that consolidated lots of functions across thier company. As you might imagine - a master page with vertical nav controlled the show, and individual page includes performed each function. But they said: “I really wish when you reloaded the page - or used the back button to get back to the consolidated page - you could be directed back to the specific Nav element where you were. Instead of always being put back on the first entry” I thought. I know how to fix that. But once I started poking at navigation requirements - a bunch more emerged. So I did more experimenting and wrote a pretty long document about Advanced Navigation features. It’s on our Samples Pages Repo. Check it out, and report back here if it helpful, or if there are other features you would like to see explored.

Hello I just want to continue the discussion from this post: http://community.skuid.com/discussion/comment/20576507#Comment_20576507 How are you working around the limitations of skuid-sfdx for pushing and pulling pages along side of version control? The issues I’ve identified are: sfdx skuid:page:pull (and push I assume) has a limit of how much it can pull down before hitting an memory error. Meaning there cannot be too many pages in a module, or module cannot have too many big pages, and managing size of module is troublesome. When pushing a page with a module that does not exist in the target org there are errors(?) or the page disappears, I don't remember, but it's another thing to manage: the module picklist is aligned. If the module/name of the page has changed then skuid:page:pull will not override the old page, i

Version: 13.0.11 (prod) and 13.0.15 (sandbox) Browser: Chrome 88.0.4324.192 I’ve experienced very slow load times and pages completely refusing to load the past two weeks. I’ve also had similar experiences with Safari. Error 1: White page when loading a V2 page editor. No issue with V1 pages. JS console error below Error 2: Attempting to load a home page with a Skuid V2 page on it. Error always occurs at first load, but the page tends to work after 1-2 refreshes. This page is very lightweight. One model, 25-30 rows of data displayed in a table. No code.

Hi All, I have a strange situation where sometime my skuid page will display and others time it will not load. Looking at the browser console I see this error when is does not successfully load the page: Uncaught TypeError: e.settings.site is not a function at o.initializeDataSource (skuid__SalesforceDataSourceTypeJS:1) at new E (skuid__SkuidReqsJS:1) As you can see in the screenshots it is the same record in separate tabs, but one tab does not show the skuid page “Project Criteria”

This would also allow the use of merge syntax.
