  • We are facing few issues with people functions 'groupprofilerecordtypesource' in Dev region: "The Requested Record Type Is Not Available An error occurred while retrieving the data for "Groups". Details: Expression evaluation error in rule 'recordsource' at function 'groupprofilerecordtypesource' [line 11]: The passed parameter(s) are of the wrong type. Received the type com.appiancorp.common.xml.JaxbConversionException: JAXB failure trying to convert typed value TypedValue[it=1474,v={TypedValue[it=1478,v={{{groupType,groupType,1},{name,name,1},{description,description,1},{securityType,securityType,1},{privacy,privacy,1},{membership,membership,1},{created,created,1},{lastModified,lastModified,1},{parent,parent,1}}}],TypedValue[it=1154,v={groupType,=,,TypedValue[it=3,v=Business Role],<null>}],{1,50,{{name,1}}}}] to java class com.appiancorp.common.query.Query. (APNX-1-4205-003)".

    Upon investigation, we found that the people function plugin was upgrade on 06/10/2022 in Dev region, while in the other regions the Plugin was upgraded last week.(Completed 4 Appian upgrade post October)
    This discrepancy is suspected to be the potential cause for the issue.
    Is it possible to downgrade the plugin to previous version?

  • You can try using todatasubset(apply(getgroupprofile(_),getallgroups(-1,0))) this instead.
