I imagine that universal network objects can support various query interfaces. https://help.libreoffice.org/6.4/en-GB/text/shared/guide/integratinguno.html I suggest to map these data sources to field functions which can be adjusted by the dialogue “Fields”. https://help.libreoffice.org/6.4/en-GB/text/swriter/01/04090000.html

I don't have deep insight into this topic, but can you illustrate your idea with an existing Add-On? => NEEDINFO cc: Design-Team for further opinions

[Automated Action] NeedInfo-To-Unconfirmed
You ask to use UNO to enhance field functions? That's a potential solution but what is the problem?
(In reply to Heiko Tietze from comment #4) Some fields can provide various data from documents. (Example: Page number) https://help.libreoffice.org/6.4/en-GB/text/swriter/guide/fields.html Which fields can query universal network objects accordingly? Would you like to extend any functionality in such an application area?
I don't see any need for an enhancement. Rather you ask quite unspecific questions. I suggest you start at ask.libreoffice.org first and return with either a bug or an use case that cannot be solved.
(In reply to Heiko Tietze from comment #6) > I don't see any need for an enhancement. We come along different views again. > Rather you ask quite unspecific questions. Some of my feature requests touch bigger (and perhaps not so popular) application areas. Example: Universal network objects > ask.libreoffice.org first I am unsure under which circumstances I might try also this communication interface out. > and return with either a bug or an use case that cannot be solved. Do you find the support complete already for field functions?

Let's close this report. Markus, feel free to change it back to UNCONFIRMED, if it is possible for you to describe a proper bug report or give a use case as requested. => RESOLVED INSUFFICIENTDATA
(In reply to Dieter from comment #8) Under which circumstances would you begin to care for extensions to field functions according to better collaboration with universal network objects?

So no proper bug report, no use case => RESOLVED INSUFFICIENTDATA
(In reply to Dieter from comment #10) > Sorry Markus, but you've just wrote a question. I hope that somebody would like to answer it in more constructive ways. > So no proper bug report, I submitted a feature request here. > no use case Will any other software users care for further collateral evolution also according to field functions?
(In reply to Markus Elfring from comment #11) > I submitted a feature request here. See cooment 10 from Heiko: "I don't see any need for an enhancement. Rather you ask quite unspecific questions. I suggest you start at ask.libreoffice.org first and return with either a bug or an use case that cannot be solved." I can't see, that you've done this => INSUFFIENTDATA
Heiko, I change status to CLOSE in this special case and I hope, you agree.
Yes, I agree. Markus, please read https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/BugReport. For example, "Will any other software users care for further collateral evolution also according to field functions?" is a (likely provocatively meant) question but I'm having a hard time to extract any meaning. Bugzilla is not a place to ask questions anyway.
