Mendix Low-Code Fundamentals - Mastering Microflows

In our Mendix Fundamentals YouTube series, AuraQ's team of expert developers take you through the essential features required to build an effective Mendix low-code application. Episode 4 focuses on Microflows, demonstrating how to express logic in your Mendix application.

Mendix developer, Paul Dale, will demonstrate how to master and create effective microflows. The tutorial will help you understand how to apply the building blocks of a microflow, showing you how to create and update objects, add validation logic with sub-microflows, handle data with retrieve actions and support and promote future maintenance of your app with best practice tips and knowledge sharing.

Chapters in this episode include:
1:25 Creating microflows
6:25 Applying validation with sub-microflows
8:20 Using variables to store data
16:05 Calling microflows
20:33 Using the merge tool
22:11 Modifying the domain model
25:15 Creating associations
26:39 Adding retrieve logic
27:38 Manipulating lists with list operation activity
34:57 Inserting loops

This tutorial is a continuation of episodes 1, 2 and 3 which focused on the domain model, building pages and applying application security. To get the most from the series, it is recommended that you have some understanding of data modelling to help follow the steps involved. You can find lots of learning material for this on the Mendix Academy and check out the AuraQ website (www.auraq.com) for more Mendix development related info.
