The main focus for this release has been about adding a more flexible authentication model by supporting OpenID Connect and Azure Active Directory in addition to the existing Windows authentication option. This enables us to support most modern authentication options, such as Google, Facebook, Twitter, Azure AD and custom user name / password solutions.
We have also improved Users + Permission Management to make it faster and easier to work with, and additionally, added many new capabilities and features to the platform to increase developer productivity and end user experience.

Creating Workbook Plugins – The Basics
In this short series, we’ll walk through creating a simple Workbook plugin.
Part 1 : The Basics (this one)
Part 2 : Reading data using the Sql Script Web Service API
Part 3 : Writing data using the Sql Script Web Service API
Part 4 : Publishing events to the Workbook
Part 5 : Conditional execution of GenericAction
Download : Source code and sample database
Profitbase InVision is built using AngularJS (1.0 right now), so some experience with AngularJS is required for building plugins.
You can download the source code and sample database for this demo from the link above. I won’t talk about how I built the UI since there’s nothing InVision specific about it, it’s just standard HTML, CSS and AngularJS.
Debugging custom Data Flow Item Class Libaries
This is the fourth and final post in a series focused on Data Flow development.

- Part 2 : Executing Data Flow Item Tasks with parameters
- Part 3 : Passing arguments to Data Flows executed from Workbooks
- Part 4 : This one
Probably the most important tool used while developing software is the debugger. The debugger lets you step through your code and inspect the state of your program during runtime, so you can see what’s actually going on.
This post will focus on how to debug your custom class libraries while they are being executed by the Profitbase InVision Worker. For information on how to deploy your assembly (build and copy to target folders), you should read Part 1 of this series.
