v2.0.0 Release Notes
- Create a new Set Process Variables node. The old version will continue to work, but must be swapped out for newer version to take advantage of the following updates:
- Added two outputs:
- Success: returns true unless exception was thrown
- ErrorMessage: returns the exception message when Success = false
- Now handles cdt version updates on nested cdts
- Now leaves pvs or cdt fields unchanged instead of nullifying when encountering multiplicity, type, or field existance mismatches between source and targets (including fields within cdts)

Hey,

Appian Health Check report still points out that the plug-in is using deprecated Appian APIs. Does it good to use this Plug-in anymore? Or we have to stop using it and put a workaround in the places where we used this. Please provide your thoughts.

Hi,

We received the below report from health check regarding this plug-in. Will this affect anything? Can we expect an update of this plug-in sooner to fix the below issue? [Currently, we are in the version of 19.4. Gonna get upgraded to 20.1 soon.]
