SPEaR Power Tools

Overview

This plugin is the results of over a decade of experience working in the Appian Expression language. While the Expression language is extremely powerful and capable as-is, there are some edge cases that experienced Appian Designer "power users" may run into that require some sophisticated Expression rules to overcome. We have taken some of these sophisticated Expression rules and reimplemented them as a plugin for ease of use and speed, both in execution as well as time-to-market.
