Prefix Option When Generating Overview Pages

Hi Mendix Community,

I’ve been working with auto-generated overview pages for entities in Mendix, and I’ve noticed a recurring challenge when it comes to managing access, especially for admin roles.

Currently, after generating overview pages, have to manually search for each page to assign the appropriate access rights. This process becomes tedious and error-prone, particularly in larger applications with many entities.

Wouldn’t it be more efficient if Mendix allowed us to specify a prefix (e.g., Admin_, Overview_, etc.) when generating overview pages? This way:

• Pages could be easily identified and grouped in the page list.
• Access rules could be applied more systematically.
• It would reduce manual effort and improve consistency across the app.

Example Use Case: When generating overview pages for entities like Customer, Order, and Product, I could use a prefix like Admin_, resulting in pages named Admin_CustomerOverview, Admin_OrderOverview, etc. Then, I could quickly filter and assign access to all Admin_ pages for the admin role.

Would love to hear your thoughts on this. Has anyone else faced similar challenges? 

Thanks!
