Dev Tips: Go to entity from aggregate

When dealing with aggregates with multiple sources, sometimes you want to know what attributes are available to you. Or, in which module, an entity lives.

When the entities have been renamed in the aggregate, they may not show up using the built in search. Searching with a common phrase comes back with too many results, taking valuable time to find the entity, you’re searching for.

OutSystems has this built in handy little shortcut to get you straight to the entity hereafter, just by clicking the eye icon (see video), it will show you the entity in the dependency tree where you can easily browse the attributes.

Mike Samuel, Senior Developer, has an easy way to figure this out. Watch this 1-minute video.
