In week 16 2022, we will release new features in the new Data model IDE. With the release of these features, the new Data model IDE will be the primary development environment. We are focusing on merging our two development environments into one again. This step is part of this plan. In the new IDE we can offer a more seamless development environment with the Page Builder, which is highly important in our no-code and citizen development vision.

**What does this mean for me?**

- When we release this, you can only mutate your data models and settings in the new IDE. When you click on the Data model icon in the builder bar (also from the old environment) you always go to the new Data model IDE. Now, you have to switch between environments, because not all features are available in the new Data model IDE. After the release, you can do (almost) everything in the new IDE, which makes your building experience more seamless, and saves you time. 
- Managing Application Roles will be part of the new IDE. Now, you can create and delete Application Roles in the Back office or via Actions, but after the release it will be part of your Application description. This is platform architecturally a better design, and as a result you’ll experience a more stable environment.

 

*Be aware: First it will be released for new Applications only. In the near future we will release this for existing Applications as well.  *

**What’s new?**

- Application Roles & Model permissions:
- Models and properties:
- Back door to old environment:
