In line code commenting in Deluge
A request to enhance readability: currently you can add 'in line' comments for Deluge code, but after you save and reopen, the comments are moved down to the new line. i.e. info "test response"; //this is a info statement for a test response gets changed
NOW Zoho Creator still cannot bulk download Image or File Upload Field
The filedownloader has been deprecated for 5 years. Until now, we still cannot have a replacement tool. How can we bulk download the file that we uploaded to Zoho Creator. Previously, it was so simple to bulk download all those files. But now failed to
Record Summary Template Improvements
Hi, Just a few suggestions to improve the usage of record summary templates. Some of them have been asked for before. Dynamic renaming of templates when sent as pdf attachment in sendmail task, also on export to pdf. Option for Page numbering. Option to add current date (${zoho.currentdate}) Option to repeat header and footer on each page. Subforms, more options in "Related Field Properties" for cell borders.(Currently only turns full border on or off) Choose template to use as record summary from

how to have incline alert on subrow's column or subform or other workaround that at least can let the user know this subform currently has some validation checking.
I have a subform and each row that are some columns that are compulsory to fill up. If user did not fill up, how to show incline alert on those columns or incline alert on the subform. Or any workaround that at least can bring the user to that fields
Offline for Maintenance Option
Making changes to a live application can cause problems. I'm suggesting a new application settings option to temporary disable all access to an app so the admin or developer can make changes without any user interference. Additionally, while the app is offline, there should be some ability to present the users with a customized notification page (perhaps a view within the app itself). For example, "This application is undergoing maintenance and will be back online Sunday at 5 PM. Please email smith@net.com

Report Options Improvements
Currently there a number of, let's call them quirks, when trying to setup reports for an Apps users. There are often times when hiding the "Add" button on a particular report for all users would be useful. However to achieve this we must embed the report in a page, now we get an extra page every time we need this functionality. If you need to remove the 'SpreadSheet' option but keep the 'Timeline' you would need to add an edit workflow with an "On Load or On User Input" code block. To remove the
"sudo" for Zoho Creator
There should be a way to allow for the developer/owner account to switch user to any one. I need to be able to test the roles of all my users of my app and because logging off and back on is way too ridiculous, I've had to code in my own pseudo-sudo app. It really slows down the app. There should be a built-in way for me to just be able to assume the identity of any user at any point in time during the use of the app.

Version History - in Enviroments
Currently the version history in Enviroments doesn't show: User who pushed the change into Production Date this was pushed into Production This would be very useful for audit tracking purposes. Can this please be added to the Roadmap? Many thanks!
Star Rating - New Field Type
Hi, Just an idea, How about a Star Rating Field. Simple 5-star system. Enables User to vote/rate on Form. View also displays rating for each row. It will be a new field type that we can drag and drop in form building. Dunno if it will be useful to everyone, but I'm aware that a lot of Creator users are here to use the forms for some sort of online questionnaire. This will surely help.
Follow lookup field link in subforms or reports
What am I missing here - there appears to be no way to drill into a record linked to as a lookup field, either in a subform, or as a column on a report. How is a user supposed to be able to quickly navigate through related records? Please add a magnifying/drill into button next to lookup fields, or make lookup fields displayed in reports a clickable link. Please refer to the attached screenshots - as you can see I can create Master/Child set up but then there is no easy way to drill into a child
On Validate Old.Subform
In the On Edit -> Validate section I want to send an email if a change is made to a subform. I don't care what the change is just need to test if any change was made. If input.subform_name != old.subform_name { //do something } Are there plans to add the subform to the Old Fields Values? Herb Wexler
Give us access to record comments through API/Workflows/Deluge
It would be great to have access to comments related to a record through API, workflows and deluge. This could open up a lot more possibilities on how the comments section in Zoho Creator is being used. One use case I would consider is creating workflow
Batch Workflow enhancement
Batch workflow is so pity can't support schedule by datetime field . It will be more useful..
Pause(1);
I'm using scheduler to invoke an interaction via http post with an external service. The schedule code uses a for-each loop that runs so fast my external application's log files get messed-up (they are named by date-time stamp). What I'm suggesting is
How to disable sub-form fields?
For each line in my sub-form, I have various fields that I don't want the user to be able to edit. There are also a few fields that I want to be kept hidden but I can't seem to figure out how to do that either. I've created a new workflow for adding a

Proposing a new function for lists: Remove Duplicates
Currently I use a cumbersome way to create a list and then feed unique values to another list all for the purpose of removing duplicates. The USER_IDS is an integer list of record IDs. Because of the way my database is constructed, if the criteria is met, this list can have duplicates. To remove them, I have to feed the list of IDs to another list (UNIQUE_IDS) as long as the ID is not already there. USER_IDS = (DATABASE[(USER_DATA.contains(r.SUBLIST) && STATUS == "CONF")].ID).getall(); for each
Customizable Favicons for Zoho Creator Applications

Feature request: Zoho Creator - Zoho Writer integration for mail merge
Hi, I've set up a purchase order template on Zoho Writer and I want to have the fields in my template linked to the fields in a report in Zoho Creator. So far I was only able to achieve this by exporting a CSV file from ZC and importing it into ZW through mail merge. Is there anyway to automate this process? Will Zoho consider integrating both apps?
Page embedded report "Add Record" button
A fundamental need is to embed a report in a page and add records to this report. When pressing the + button on the embedded report the form size is limited to the report size, which can significantly reduce the user experience. I would appreciate if
10 suggestions for Global Search
Global search is great! And it is new so we know you may have improvements coming :-) Suggestions: DEFINING "SEARCH OPTIONS" add these settings and of course obey them in the UI and searching: * Whether that form is available at all for Global Search. (If no, ignore all settings and do NOT show in GS dropdown, and do not search that form.) * Which columns to display (already available) --but please actually show all fields selected, not just the first 7) * Which fields are actually to be searched

Rich Text Editor: Insert Image
Having an "insert image" button in the RTE field would be beneficial. Currently, images can be inserted using the html button and the <img src="some url"> tag, but novice users don't realize this. I understand there would be complications to upload an image from your desktop in terms of how this image is stored at ZC, so I'm merely suggesting the insert image button only be for images with urls. As a best practice, mimic this forum's insert image button:

Random String Generator
Suggestion: Random String Generator Purpose: A built-in function that can generate a random string. Tastes great with password input field! Motivation: Zoho Creator is missing a random-number generator. Examples: Create a strong password for a user. Alternative to Zoho ID#. Implementation: The function would have the parameters: character length, number range, and option to include alphabet charters (lowercase) Issues: Limited audience I bet. References: none I could find
Feature Request: disable specific dates from calendar (based on rules)
Hello, I have two fields: departure date and return date (for flight). Business logic is: - The departure cannot be in the past (the sooner is today) - The return cannot happen before the departure (the sooner is the same day as departure) Best option I've found is to display alert messages in case above rules are not validated. But instead of letting the user selecting dates that are not valid and then displaying an alert message, it would be better to prevent the user from selecting dates that
Window tablet native app
Hi Zoho, With windows based tablets are becoming more popular and starting to gain market share from Android and Apple it would be nice to see Zoho publish the Creator app for larger devices. We are moving all of users off the ipad onto the Microsoft Surface line this year and would like to use it as a native app. I would assume this would be very useful for many businesses... Windows phone version is already created and published, why not make it available for tablets? Thanks for your consideration.
Feature Request: Dynamic Field Names/Labels

Functionality URL Idea: The OR operator
Referring to this: https://www.zoho.com/creator/help/url-pattern/functionality-based-urls.html#To_set_criteria_for_a_view I propose to include "or" as well as "and" for creating views on the fly. For example, https://creatorexport.zoho.com/admin/mydata/json/My_View/Town=Lakeview||City=Summerville Would provide all records (in this case as a json stream) with either the Town Lakeview OR the City Summerville Is there a workaround?
