Hi ,  Third Party Credentials questions. 1) Is it possible to update Third Party Credentials using API or any other option other than Manual. We are rotating our client Secret every 6 months so don't want to do it manually, exploring option to automate this process.  2) Does Appian provide audit of updating Third party Credentials. e.g if we have S3 credentials and if someone updates client secret then does appian capture this update in any log  ? Thanks Vishal 

Appian is throwing error while statrting the application, by saying QRTZ_LOCKS table is already present. Few points about the environment are below  1. It is new Appain additional server(like UAT2 or SIT2), this is the first time we are trying to start the instance. 2. The  db schema(oarcle DB) was copied from lower environment(i.e. i contains all the tables Business and meta data. as same schema has been used for both) 3.We cannot drop/rename  the QRTZ_LOCKS table, due to some internal reason. Can we skip this table creation part by anyhow? Where can i get the complete list of appian meta data tables? Kindly help me to resolve this issue.

Hi everyone, I would like to know the following thing for my process: I have a record where data is put, including users taken from a group defined inside Appian. I would like each user, when he logs into the site where this record is displayed, to see only the row corresponding to his username. For example, as in attachment below, if the operator "Canelli" log in the site, is capable to see all the rows of the site with its name and not the other rows, so only the rows with ID 6 and 14. If Piemonte log into the same site, he's capable to see only the 8th and the 9th rows and so on.   is it possible to do this? I enclose an example of a view of the site in question. Many thanks in advance.

Hi, I am working on a date validation, where I want the date format based on various user locale to be converted into a common date format "dd/MM/yyyy". I am using "datetext()" function and it gets converted into the desired format whenever I tried to enter the value based on the user's calender format. But whenever I tried for other test scenarios, it fails. For example: If I enter date as "dd.MM.yyyy" in the expression of the test inputs, then in the value of the test input, I don't get the entered date in the desired format("dd/MM/yyyy") . I need every date formats of the various user locales to be converted into "dd/MM/yyyy". Please provide some suggestions. Thank you.
