Lowcoder 2.4.1 - Rock

After weeks of sweat, we are proud to announce the release of Lowcoder 2.4.1! This version is a stability-focused update aimed at enhancing your overall experience. We've addressed a number of bugs and introduced new features that ensure a smoother and more efficient workflow. Here’s what’s new and improved:

New Features and Enhancements

  • GUI Mode SQL Query Fix: Enhanced the SQL query execution in GUI mode, ensuring accurate and efficient data retrieval.

  • Proxy Server for REST & GraphQL Queries: Implemented a proxy server to streamline and secure REST and GraphQL queries.

  • Component Styling Additions:

    • Outer Shadow

    • Inner Shadow (Input Fields)

    • Animation (!!!)

    • Label Border

    • Outer Border

    • Rotation (!!!)

  • Timeout for Refresh-Token Endpoint: We Added a timeout feature for the refresh-token endpoint to enhance security and performance. Some of the 3th party Auth Services may miss Endpoints, so we have now a timeout in place to ensure no freezing state.

  • Redirect Back to App for Auth Flows: We improved the OAuth flow to redirect users back to the app seamlessly after authentication. This was very important! If now a user tries to open an App, but misses Authentication, he / she get's redirected to the Org-Auth Login - and after successful auth - back to the app.

  • Copy-able State Information Per Component: Users can now easily copy the state information of each component for better debugging and analysis. In the left menu bar of the Editor, there is a list (tree) of components for the current app. Before 2.4.1 information about the data state were displayed - but practically not to copy and to use. This we changed now and gave it a very nice roundup.

Documentation

  • We merged now the documentation from Gitbooks with the Repository. This gives a better experience for everyone, who start to read in Github first.

  • Also, we updated the Contribution and Developer Readme's, so your first steps in extending and coding in Lowcoder are at all possible and a better experience.

Bug Fixes

  • OAuth Setup Fixed: We addressed and resolved issues with the generic OAuth setup to ensure a smoother authentication process.

  • User Introspection Optional: We made user introspection optional, providing greater flexibility in user management.

  • Password Reset Flow Bugfix: We corrected bugs within the password reset flow to ensure a more reliable and user-friendly experience.

  • Table Current Row Values: We fixed the issue where current row values were not correctly passed to module inputs nested in the expanded view.

  • OAuth Display (Icon) Fixed: We resolved display issues with OAuth icons for a more visually consistent experience.

  • Profile Image Display Fixed: We ensured that profile images display correctly without requiring additional API calls to external sources. As an legacy there was a API call to a service, which returns the Initial Letters, when there is no profile image set. We removed this, cause every external API call is always unnecessary and a security risk.

Focus on Stability and Performance

The past few weeks have been dedicated to fixing bugs and increasing the overall stability of Lowcoder. Our primary focus has been on improving the Generic OAuth setup to provide a more secure and reliable authentication process.

We hope these updates will enhance your experience and provide you with a more robust and efficient toolset. Thank you for your continued support and feedback.

Enjoy the new and improved Lowcoder 2.4.1!
