Feature ideas

Currently defining an input as a secret does not work in cases where there is an approver on the action. https://docs.getport.io/actions-and-automations/create-self-service-experiences/setup-ui-for-action/user-inputs/secret Port should support using input secrets and approvers in the same action.

In some cases an operation failed and a retry will solve it. Adding a retry action for a run can be nice addition :)

Now that a deep link to a specific self-service action is available, we have taken advantage to link directly to a self-service action. Specifically, we have made a similar portal feedback mechanism to the one offered in the demo site, and then added a hyperlink within the description of a given page like "Have feedback about this page?" which is hyperlinked to the "Leave feedback about the portal" Day 2 action. Unfortunately, this link takes the user to the Self-service page (albeit with the correct action modal opened to the form). Completing the form then leaves then on the Self-service page. Similar to how related self service actions are handled within an entity table or from an action card, it would be nice to have a way to trigger the display of the appropriate self-service action form as a modal over the page that the user is currently (perhaps with some opinionated/specially handled markdown syntax to designate creating a link to trigger the display of a specific self-service action?).

Allow sending a validation requests with user inputs to the backend prior submitting the form. For example, validate the user input for corectness against custom business logic, and display an error returned from the backend under the text field, without actually submitting the form. This way, the user has a chance to adjust the input, without having to re-submit the entire form with all the values again

As self service action URL do now exists: https://app.getport.io/self-serve?action=my-action . It will be great if we can add also pre-filled form parameter to the URL, something that could looks like this: https://app.getport.io/self-serve?action=my-action&key1=value1&key2=value2

The "preview" self-service action input will provide a way to display the user's static data that helps while filling out the action form. This is done by calculating values based on the data of other form inputs, user data, and entity data. For example - creating a "Preview" input for a "full name" that will display the full name according to the "first name" and "last name" inputs

The ability to define notes to inform the user of a certain warning before submitting the action form

Currently default is being recalculated, whenever we clear it out. The requirement is to have the default value populate only when the form is first loaded, rather than re-calculating it whenever it is removed.

When creating an action with approval you can't see who is the action approvers in the run page. That can be helpful to know who can I reach to ask them to approve my run.

There is no option to automatically notify users when their requested actions have been approved. This feature request proposes adding an option that will send an email and/or Slack message to users once their self-service actions have been approved.
