Inline editing is a feature first released two years ago this month. It’s now matured and gained capabilities, so we think it’s ready to be made available as an option on every view, by default. A quick recap – what is inline editing? Normally in agileBase, when you click a record, that record opens up…

One thing that customers have started asking for recently is the ability to create dashboards, to bring charts from various parts of the system together in one place, to share with colleagues and senior management. Sometimes data from agileBase will be merged or shown alongside data from other places, such as accounting systems. To allow…

This feature for agileBase administrators and developers allows massive improvements in usability and capabilities. In the long run it will also allow us to tailor the system to suit developers of different levels, doing different types of jobs. So a beginner (called a ‘superuser’) will be able to see a simple, user friendly array of…

The first in our list of three major features being released is the drag and drop ‘cards’ interface – also described as T-cards, or for use as Kanban boards. In essence you can set any view to use the cards interface and it will display each record as a card, within columns. The columns are…

Things have been ramping up towards the end of the year here at agileChilli HQ. Alongside a lot of marketing and product development, there have been some major improvements and new features for the agileBase platform. On that front, there are three major things we can announce, which will be going live in January 2022.…

I’m not sure how much this has permeated outside of the tech world, but at the end of last week there was a major security ‘zero-day’ vulnerability in a software library used by lots of enterprise software, potentially including agileBase. [Update: it is now in the national news] This post is to inform customers, who…

I don’t think anyone would be surprised to hear that, at agileBase, we use our platform to build our own back office (which we call OBO). Basically we eat our own dog food. Yesterday however, I was really surprised by the value I got from a very small integration we did the previous Friday. So…

We’re looking for a couple of people to help with some specific projects we’ve got on at the moment. Ideally we’d like to build further ties with developers in the South West (Bristol & surrounds, UK), especially. NB we’re looking to deal directly with freelancers, no agencies please. The two projects below are part of…

As many of you may know, we’ve been championing the use of Two Factor Authentication (2FA) in agileBase for a number of years and gradually increasing the ‘nudges’ towards this – prompting and requiring 2FA for tasks such as exporting or bulk editing data. We also keep an eye on what are the best technologies…

Introduction We’ve talked before about ‘learner progression’ for developers using agileBase. The idea is to help people increase their developer abilities at their own pace, up to the level they want to get to, whilst still allowing control and oversight over the direction of development by the organisation. For example, once someone has been using…
