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?
groupprofilerecordtypesource(query) Is this function available in latest release ?
we are facing the same issue using the version 1.11, but only after upgrading to Appian 22.3. Is this problem fixed in a more recent version of the plugin?
while deploying the plugin I get the error on the attached screenshot
I am using function "validateNameForUser" in my application. Earlier it was working fine, but now getting error on UI as "You don't have permission to view this page". In system log, I found error as below:
at a!xray_eval.(SYSTEM_SYSRULES_xray_eval:1) at a!xray_parseAndInstrumentWrapper.(SYSTEM_SYSRULES_xray_parseAndInstrumentWrapper:60) at a!xray_startFormWrapper.(SYSTEM_SYSRULES_xray_startFormWrapper:27) at ______________________________SAIL_TO_JAVA_BOUNDARY______________________________.esId=1a7093f0fb40f23b:ca1b2df0fd53743c(Unknown Source) at com.appiancorp.ps.people.function.ValidateNameForUser.validateNameForUser(ValidateNameForUser.java:27)
I am using People Plugin with version 1.10 now. Can you please help me to know the root cause and solution of this issue.
Can we use the update profile advanced if not what can we use instead of that smart service to provide a value to the custom field for the users in admin console??
A new update has been released (Ver. 1.15). Please update the plug-in to the latest update.
We get the below message in the health check report with the latest version of the plugin 1.14 and we have APPIAN 22.1
"People Functions (psshared.peoplefunctions) references deprecated Appian APIs [deprecated][deprecated] com.appiancorp.suiteapi.common.ServiceLocator.getUserProfileService(com.appiancorp.services.ServiceContext)"
what updates are required to get rid of the above message in the health check report?
