Add conditional breakpoints (eval functions)

Would be good to add possibility for conditional breakpoints, where you say "stop here if x == false". Perhaps a breakpoint block with an eval function that is only enabled when debug. Perhaps looking like an "if block". The "breakpoint" block wou...

Improve try catch to reduce number of required blocks.

Currenty when using try/catch blocks, you almost always need 4 blocks. "Try"... "block to execute" ... "catch" ... "if block to check exception". I think the improvement might be to merge the catch/if by making the catch block have fields to simul...

Allow for admin or users to hide integrations for users by default

Add feature request to hide uncommon or unused integrations from the left navigation bar. Generally an organization will probably only use a handful of integrations. Perhaps have an option to unhide temporarily.

Allow step into when debugging workflow

Currenty when debugging workflows, you can resume, start over, stop and step. The possibility for stepping into another function is missing. This feature is key to allow workflow reuse.

Create an Account level policy entity type

When accounts have many different resource entity types, it's very cumbersome to create a generic policy for half a dozen resource types across dozens of accounts. If there was an Account policy type, high-level settings such as Action Generation:...

Add list of Policies to bottom of Volume details page for consistency

When viewing a virtual machine or database server the details page has a list of policies at the bottom of it, so you can see what's applicable. It would be handy to also see this list on volumes.

Track metadata on when a policy was created, modified and by who

Currently there is nowhere in the policy list to see who created it, when it was created, when it was modified or who the culprit is. This type of basic logging would be very useful when you have hundreds of people active in the tool at the same t...

Breakout list of user-defined policies into entity type to match the list provided in the group management UI

Current groups are broken out by VM, Account, DB, etc. In policies they are only grouped by imported, user defined, etc. Would be more useful to add sub sections by policy type: VM, Volume, etc.

Add description or summary field to Groups and Policy forms

Under the name allow for a short description to be added to explain why that particular group or policy needed to be created. This could then be displayed in the list of those object types for quick viewing. Example1: This group used to isolate th...

Allow a way to Save As New a copy of an existing group, schedule or policy object

Allow for a group, policy, or schedule to be duplicated. Save As New. Keep all current settings allowing the user to first edit the one variable that needs to change and then save to create it. This would significantly speed up the scoping pre-wor...
