I have made an application package, containing changes that require a couple of database tables to be modified: Some columns are removed, one is added and one is renamed. To this end, I have created three text files with suffix .sql. They contain SQL code, copied from MariaDB, which has a "Preview SQL" button. I add these script files to the package, like this: The problem is, that when I export the package, I get this message: What is the point of having a "database scripts" section in packages, if the scripts are omitted from the exported package??

So to that end, is there a way to 1) search for every object in an application (or at least a particular type of object) and 2) view/modify the group permissions assigned to them?

Hello all!We are on 21.3 Cloud. We recently enabled the File Upload configuration (From Admin console) - "Block any file with an extension that does not match the underlying type". Post this change, a set of users started noticing a behavior where when they attach an RTF file, above configuration gets triggered. The RTF file they are trying to upload is generated by an application and the property of the file looks alright. Has anyone experienced such behavior and if so how to get around that? Thanks so much!

Hello Appian Community, We are facing an interesting issue with SAML SSO where we are trying to return the Site the user is trying to access in the IdP response. The reason for this is we have an application with two sites in Appian. Based on user permissions they might have access to one or both sites.  In the scenario they have access to two sites we want them to navigate to the site they click. The issue is Appian can only have one IdP per entityId specified in the MetaData so when the response is returned to the IdP they aren't sure which site it is the user wants to access. Our hopeful solution is to have Appian return, in the response to the IdP, the site the user is trying to access so the IdP can redirect. Is there any possible Appian solution to edit the IdP response? Thank You, Kevin
