Hi Everyone, I am querying the db table through query record type. This query gives the list of db records.

I need an Expression Rule that has an or condition for a filed. I have a list of clergy assignments and I need to pull all current assignments and those that terminated over the last year.  The record type, CPMA Clergy Position has a termination date for the assignment, clergyPositionTermEnd which is a date formatted field.  If the assignment is for a fixed term, then there is a future date in the field.  If the assignment is a permanent assignment, then the field date is null.   The or function would look like this. or( RecordType!CPMA Clergy Position.field.clergypositiontermend >= today()-365, isNullOrEmpty(RecordType!CPMA Clergy Position.field.clergypositiontermend) ) However, I do not understand how to use this inside an Expression Rule.  My Expression Rule using the queryRecordType function looks like this. if( a!isNotNullOrEmpty(ri!clergyId), a!queryRecordType( recordType: 'recordType!CPMA Clergy Position', pagingInfo: a!pagin

Hi Team, Beginner here. I need to send a message to a Kafka topic that's used by another team. To do this, we're using a plugin that accepts messages(parameter) as text. The message I need to send is a dictionary in Appian, and I'm converting it into a JSON string using a!toJson(). so that the other team can parse it. However, the other team expects the dictionary to be enclosed in single quotes, like this: '{"a": "hello", "b": 1}'. I have few questions: Is it possible to create such string enclosed in single quotes in Appian? In the Expression Editor's output tab, there are three formats: "formatted," "raw," and "expression." Which one should I consider as a output. I mean the output format we see will be different while passing into pv! right. for example {"a","b","c"} will be shown in the output as below(image), but in the instance if we look at th
