  • Hey all, we're on the latest version of the plugin (with Appian 19.1) and do not see correct results when utilizing queryAppian

  • in reply to Chris

    *..when utilizing queryAppianLogs() with hasHeader=false.  For instance:

    queryAppianLogs(
      sqlStatement: "select * from login-audit",
      hasHeader: false
    )

    returns a result set with the column name the same as the column value, not "COLUMN1,COLUMN2.." as defined.  Is anyone else having this issue?
