Currently, managing and localizing ENUM values in Mendix is a manual process, which can be time-consuming and error-prone — especially in multilingual applications. It would be highly beneficial to introduce a feature that allows importing ENUM definitions including Caption, Key, and LanguageCode directly from an Excel file or via the Maia AI assistant.
This functionality would streamline the process of updating and localizing enumerations by:
Allowing bulk import of ENUM values and translations
Ensuring consistency across languages
Reducing the need for manual editing in Studio Pro
Saving development time, especially for large apps with extensive localization needs
Example Use Case:An Excel sheet containing ENUM values for multiple languages could be imported into the model, automatically generating or updating ENUMs and their localized captions.
