Make Server Actions editable from picker

Bump.
This would save a lot of time.

Seems like this request is quite popular, considering many doubles: second, third, forth, fifth.

Bumpity bump! This is such a great idea, come on lets do it! Keep voting and tell people to keep voting. I usually have like 10+ tabs open at a time and if I could just click a little button to take me to the server action that is attached would just be such a time saver!

Have a great week everyone!

This request is very similar to this one , or at least part of it. As was mentioned in the Wappler meeting today, this is the sort of request which would probably be quite straightforward to implement but which would make a very significant difference to the user.

I sometimes wonder if features like this are overlooked because they’re considered very minor and uninteresting, and overlooked in favour of bigger features. (I think for some developers, a feature like this might come near the top of the list of recent changes.)

I voted for this a while ago and am surprised it hasn’t been implemented. Having huge changes to the UI and adding complex servcies for Docker etc etc is all well and good, however, it’s the small things that can sometimes make a big difference. This is one of those things.

I too used to work with DMXZone plugins, that little edit pen on the image above that @baub added was a massive time saver. I’m on a project right now that has about 3-400 Server Actions - a lot of them are quite similarly named so have to be read carefully when selecting, this causes a disruption to my workflow whilst I trawl through the list looking for the SA I need.

Being able to click on a single button to pick the required SA multiplied by how many times a day its being clicked, results in a significant time saving.

You’re right, I recently spent a lot of time searching for every sc out there.

I’m 100% for this feature, but you don’t need to trawl through looking for a server action. There’s a search bar at the top or the Workflows…

I too have a lot of similarly named server actions so I just copy paste into the search box.

I agree the search is helpful but it requires a lot more than one click. It requires two clicks a bit of typing then selection from a list of choices and another click. Combine these actions over the course of a working day and that time is considerable.

This suggestion offers up a simple one click solution.

What we have right now is a step backwards from a years old formula that DMXZone had nailed.

I totally agree. It just sounded like you were scanning through the server actions, not using the search.

Exactly! I have soooooo many server connects that have fairly similar names and its easy to pick the wrong one if its the end of the day and your brain is mush. One click and correct Server Connect! Bam!
