SAIL Dialogs

Overview

Dialogs allow a user to quickly view supplementary details as an overlay and then return to the primary UI. This is particularly useful if the user has made selections or entered data into the primary UI which they wish not to lose by navigating away.

SAIL Dialogs is part of the Appian App Accelerators (A3) suite.

The SAIL Dialogs application gives you the ability to drop links into your UIs which open a dialog. The SAIL interface rendered in the dialog is of your choosing. The link itself will be provide dynamic inputs to the dialog interface based on the context of the link.

Using the framework is 2 simple steps:

  1. Register the interface rule you want to show in the dialog. Do this in the A3_D_dialogRegistration rule (see screenshot).
  2. Use the A3_D_dialogLink rule to add dialog links in your UIs (see screenshot).

  • Hello,

    we are trying to import this package in our environment running Appian 21.2.xxx.0 but we cannot do it because it was exported by an environment running Appian 21.3.xxx.0 . Can you advice a procedure in order to get it done?

    Thank you.

  • previous versions of this application supported versions prior to 21.3. Newer features in this application necessitate 21.3. Let me look into this and get back to you with a version of the application which will work in your environment.

  • I tried a few things and was unable to reproduce any errors on a 21.2 GA site or a 21.2 site off the latest hotfix. Are there any errors in the appserver log at the time of import? If that's not an avenue you can pursue, please create a support case and mention me. I'd like to get this working for you.
