Entity Modeling from an Excel File

A new functionality is introduced that allows entities to be created directly from an Excel file. This capability, integrated with Diana, facilitates the modeling of data structures in an agile and assisted way.

By attaching an Excel file, Diana automatically analyzes its format, identifies the columns, and proposes the creation of the corresponding fields within the entity. Optionally, it is also possible to import and populate sample data from the same file, simplifying the initial data load.

The process is carried out in a conversational and guided manner, with intelligent suggestions and automatic validations that optimize the definition of the data model and reduce possible inconsistencies.

This capability marks a before and after in the way of working with entities in Deyel, and is designed to obtain fast, precise, and easily scalable results.

Key Highlights

• Significant reduction in modeling time
  Allows entities to be created in a matter of minutes from existing files.
• Automatic import of structure and data
  Minimizes manual errors by generating fields and, optionally, incorporating initial information from the file.
• Conversational experience guided by Diana
  The Diana-assisted interface accompanies the modeler user intuitively, validating the consistency of the model.
• Especially useful for migrations
  Ideal for projects that already have structured data in spreadsheets and require quick integration into the platform.

Centralized Platform Administration

A new administration console is introduced that centralizes platform management and facilitates operational control of applications developed with Deyel.

From this space, it is possible to manage in a unified way the resources and configurations necessary to ensure the proper functioning of the environment. The console brings together key tools so that citizen developers, administrators, and security managers can manage applications, monitor their execution, and define environment configuration policies in an agile and organized way.

The console allows viewing the status of applications, monitoring executions, and managing different aspects of the environment, such as users, roles, environment properties, email accounts, repositories, calendars, and scheduled tasks.

As a complement to this functionality, the platform includes a home page that organizes access to the main work areas, such as platform knowledge, application creation and administration, and facilitates access to the administration console and modeling tools, including the use of Diana as an intelligent assistant within the workflow.

Key Highlights

• Centralized platform administration
  The new console brings together in a single place the tools necessary to manage the environment, manage applications, and configure platform resources.
• Comprehensive application management
  Allows viewing, monitoring, building, and installing modeled applications, facilitating lifecycle control of each one.
• Monitoring and activity control
  Includes tools to review executions, analyze system events, and monitor user activity within applications.
• Advanced security management
  Centralizes user management, along with role and job position assignment, facilitating the implementation of security policies.
• Execution environment control
  Allows configuring key environment properties, including email accounts, repositories, log level, calendars, and scheduled tasks.
• Organized access to resources and tools
  The platform includes a home page that organizes access to main work areas and facilitates entry to the administration console, application modeler, and documentation resources.

Menu Element in Entity and Page Modelers

A new draggable element is incorporated into the entity and page modelers, designed to structure and manage navigation within applications in a flexible, hierarchical, and fully configurable way.

This new element enables the creation of modern navigation experiences adaptable to different layouts and interaction patterns, significantly expanding the interface design capabilities within the platform.

Key Highlights

• Multiple display formats
  The menu can be configured in different presentation modes: horizontal, vertical, and hamburger.
• Hierarchical and flexible structure
  The new element consists of navigation options that can include icon and text. Each option can contain submenus with multiple levels, allowing more complex structures.
• Configurable submenus
  Submenus can be defined according to the selected menu type and configured to be displayed on click or hover.
• Clear content organization
  Within submenus, it is possible to include both navigable options and visual groups that facilitate content separation and organization.
• Minimized mode
  The menu can be reduced to display only icons, optimizing interface space without losing accessibility.

Treeview for Objects and Parameters in the Rule Modeler

In version 9.2, a new TreeView is introduced within the Advanced Rule Modeler, allowing faster and more direct visualization and management of parameters and objects associated with a business rule.

From now on, it is no longer necessary to access the tools menu to consult linked objects or to create or modify parameters. All this information is available directly in the workspace, along with the corresponding operations for each element, improving visibility and accelerating development.

Key Highlights

• Centralized visualization of objects and parameters
  A new panel is incorporated on the left side of the workspace, from where it is possible to easily visualize objects associated with the rule and understand their parameters.
