Marc Davis (Customer) asked a question.
Hey everyone, I've been working on a project to build an entirely new and modern UI for Automation... Project: MAUI - adding features that have been missing - like custom task metadata, hierarchical folders for organizing tasks, fully customizable views and grid control; column selection, ordering, resizing, filtering and sorting. That is just the start. Going to be publishing it on GitHub soon - wanted to see what the community interest would be like. Screenshot attached. Appreciate any feedback or suggestions for things to include.
This version still leverages the native task/host editors; a subsequent release will look to replace those with modern equivalents where possible; obviously limited by what the APIs offer.
Project uses both the REST and COM APIs; can run standalone in Visual Studio or deployed to an IIS Server. Does not interfere with legacy UI.
More pictures in comments below.
Current Features and Progress
· Modern replacement UI for MOVEit Automation – cleaner navigation, improved usability, responsive layouts, and a more polished administrative experience.
· Unified Task Management – view, search, sort, filter, organize, and manage Automation tasks from a single modern grid.
· Advanced Task Search – search across task names, descriptions, and custom metadata for faster task discovery.
· Customizable Task Grid – choose which columns to display, reorder them, resize them, and preserve personal grid preferences.
· Expanded Task Visibility – optional columns for status, last run, last result, file count, transfer size, custom metadata, and audit information.
· Detailed Status Tooltips – hover over task status to immediately see the latest MOVEit result/error message.
· Modern Task Information Panel – combines native MOVEit task properties with MAUI-specific metadata and additional task information.
· Native Task Creation – create Traditional, Advanced, and Synchronization tasks directly from MAUI with duplicate-name checking, validation, and automatic naming options.
· Seamless Native Editor Integration – launch the existing MOVEit task editor directly from MAUI while preserving the modern MAUI workflow and branding.
· Per-Task Action Menu – contextual ellipsis menu provides quick access to Task Information, Run Task Now, Kill Task, Enable/Disable, Delete, Undo, and future activity/history views.
· Run Task Now – immediately start eligible tasks directly from the MAUI task grid.
· Kill Running Tasks – identify active task instances and safely terminate them with confirmation.
· Bulk Task Administration – enable, disable, or delete multiple tasks in a single operation.
· Safe Task Deletion – dependency checks help prevent deletion of tasks that are referenced by other Automation tasks.
· One-Level Task Undo – MAUI automatically captures the task configuration before opening the native editor, allowing users to restore their previous version.
· Per-User Undo History – each user maintains their own independent undo snapshot for a task without overwriting another user's recovery point.
· Multi-User Undo Protection – prevents an older undo snapshot from overwriting configuration changes subsequently made by another MAUI user.
· Custom Task Metadata – extend MOVEit tasks with MAUI-managed information such as references, notes, and other future metadata fields.
· Task Metadata Auditing – track who created and last modified MAUI-managed task information and when those changes occurred.
· Custom Task Folders – organize Automation tasks into a logical folder hierarchy without changing the underlying MOVEit task configuration.
· Permission-Safe Folder Management – folder deletion protects assignments for tasks that may exist but are not visible to the current user.
· Environment-Aware Metadata – separate MAUI metadata by Automation environment, allowing PROD, QA, DEV, or other independent Automation systems to safely use overlapping task IDs.
· HA / Failover Awareness – multiple Automation nodes can intentionally share the same MAUI environment metadata when they represent the same underlying Automation environment.
· Modern MOVEit Native Styling – custom styling brings native MOVEit editor pages visually closer to the MAUI experience while retaining the existing MOVEit editor functionality.
· Cached, Performance-Conscious Design – task, run, status, metadata, and grid information are retrieved and reused efficiently to avoid unnecessary API calls.
· Live Task Refresh – MAUI automatically refreshes task status and operational information so changes made inside or outside MAUI quickly appear in the interface.
· Extensible Architecture – built to support new features
It sounds good ! Please share it on GitHUb ! Waiting to test !! 🙂
Please shore more pics ! 👀
I'll post some more pics tonight.
