Data Fabric

Hi Team, I am trying the new feature in record type, creating reusable interface for a record field. https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/25.2/reference-records.html#reference-record-field-interfaces i need to do duplicate validation for the fields, created by using re-usable interfaces for a record field. Below is the interface definition of the created interface automatically by Appian, for the record field. a!textField( label: 'recordType!{b1ecf478-0b29-4be8-a0f1-edc36a6d606a}SG IPL Match.fields.{4b2ebeae-9196-4a13-8d48-44abf5b765ae}username.properties.{displayName}displayName', labelPosition: "ABOVE", showWhen: fn!true(), value: ri!record['recordType!{b1ecf478-0b29-4be8-a0f1-edc36a6d606a}SG IPL Match.fields.{4b2ebeae-9196-4a13-8d48-44abf5b765ae}username'], saveInto: ri!record['recordType!{b1ecf478-0b29-4be8-a0f1-edc36a6d606a}SG IPL Match.fields.{4b2ebeae-9196-4a13-8d48-44abf5b765ae}username'], align: "LEFT" ) Now how to validate if username provided by user is not a dupl

I am trying to enable Process insights and Data governance in Dev environment. I have added "Data Fabric Report Creators" and "Data Governors" group to "Process HQ Users Group". In the required records and event history record security I have added "Data Steward" group. Is this any setting/prerequisite I am missing to enable Process insights and Data governance in Process HQ?

Hi Everyone,I'm trying to delete a record type object in my appian application but I'm unable to do so. When I try to delete the below error pops up. Has anyone faced this issue and how to resolve this. Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone, I'm looking for a good resource (docs, videos, or examples) that explains record actions and record views in Appian — especially how they work behind the scenes. I want to understand how visibility, context, and navigation are handled under the hood. Here’s my current scenario: I have a table with two columns: Policy Number and Policy Form Number. It’s a 1-to-many relationship — one policy can have multiple policy forms. I’m able to display all the policy form numbers correctly in a grid. However, I’m struggling to associate each policy form with its corresponding document link. The goal is to have each link open the correct document in Tempo or a Site page. Right now, only the first document link is opening, no matter which policyForm value I have clicked. I suspect it has something to do with how I’m setting up the record link or passing the identifier, but I’m not sure. Would really appreciate: Any resources that e

I have a record that when I the value gets updated to NULL the item gets ignore and it does not get updated on the Database

I'm encountering an issue when trying to access a cloud database URL from Appian. The full URL I'm using is: dev.abc.us-east-2.123.aws/.../index.php However, when I copy and paste this into a new browser tab, the URL gets truncated and only loads as: dev.abc.us-east-2.123.aws/.../index.php Interestingly, I’m not facing this issue with another table from the same schema—its URL works as expected. Has anyone experienced something similar? Could this be related to how Appian encodes or renders the link? Any suggestions on how to preserve the full query string when opening the link? Thanks in advance!

1. My requirement is that users can be able to download the reporting interface as pdf using a click of a button. 2. Also if there is any way to export my reporting data in excel (my reporting interface contains- counts of events, dropdowns and charts like- column chart, pie chart, bar chart, etc.)

 As you can see I am not able to see data type from the list I wanted to create a constant of type Data Store Entity.

In Process HQ i am not able to see the ADD PROCESS button under Process Insights tab as shown in the picture. Could anybody please help me with that? Thanks in advance. 

Hi everyone, I’m working on my first Appian build and ran into an issue I haven’t been able to resolve. My save logic seems to save correctly to ri!record, but I’m getting an error related to the record type relationships. Could not display interface. Please check definition and inputs. Interface Definition: Expression evaluation error: xxxx must be indexed by its corresponding record type fields or relationships I suspect the issue is tied to how my record type relationships are configured, but I haven’t been able to figure it out. Has anyone encountered similar issues with saving data to a record type and relationship errors? I’d really appreciate any guidance on reviewing or troubleshooting the save logic and relationships. Thanks in advance!

i have a store procedure where it has 13 different columns retrieved from 20 different tables i need to get user a link on single click to export data to Excel , and also if possible matched data should  be bold in the excel

HI all  I have a record for sum insured values let's say he below: id: Primary Key (QuoteID) riskType1SumInsured: Aggregate field of all RiskType1 sum insureds riskType2SumInsured: Aggregate field of all RiskType2 sum insureds riskType3SumInsured: Aggregate field of all RiskType3 sum insureds totalSumInsured: a!customFieldSum(riskType1SumInsured, riskType2SumInsured,riskType3SumInsured )  When all the risk type 1,2 and 3 sum insured values have a value (Not Null) the totalSumInsured works correctly, however as soon as one or many of the risk type 1,2 and 3 sum insured values are null, the totalSumInsured simply returns a null. I have tried wrapping the risk type 1,2 and 3 sum insured values in the a!customFieldSum(), with a!defaultValue() as well is a!isnullOrEmpty(), but no change in behaviour. Is there something i am missing?

Hi All, I am trying to quey the view which has 20000 rows. when i apply filter to one of the calculated column which has 0 rows present, queryentity still throws below error.  Expression evaluation error at function a!queryEntity: An error occurred while retrieving the data. Details: Unexpected error executing query (type: [ELMRISKREDUCTIONLANDINGPAGEVWDT16641], query: [queryentity expression], order by: [[Sort[eucInventoryId asc]]], filters:[(currentReductionStage in TypedValue[it=103,v={Process Re-engineering/Non GFT/ITeSS,}])]) We tried optimizing the view as well, but no luck. Any suggestion would be appreciated.

I am getting above error, I have a doubt for now I am using record data function to get the data and using it as a source for grid component.  i tried changing source to result to queryrecordtype  instead of recorddata also . so as this message suggest  Do I need to directly reference the recordtype in the data field of grid component?

I've been having headaches with dates in Appian and I think it has to do with the way appian handles timezones.  Unless I'm mistaken, appian is supposed to record dates in GMT then then later read them in whatever local time zone is appropriate. What I'm finding is that it records in the local time zone, then later reads it as though it were GMT and adjusts to the local time zone, resulting in incorrect dates.  The more frustrating thing about this is how I access/display the date affects what gets shown.  For example if I use a date picker, appian records the date as 4 hours earlier. Thus 8/8/2025 will be recorded in the db as 8/7/2025 8:00 pm EDT If I display the date in a text field, I'll get 8/7/2025 8:00 pm EDT, but if I put it through any kind of function such as text() to format what it looks like it'll come out as 8/8/2025.  What's worse is I imported a csv of a bunch of legacy data and the dates were all converted to date/time a

I have interface displaying record data in grid format. When the user clicks Export to PDF, the currently filtered results (or all records if no filter is applied) should be downloaded in PDF format.

Hello Appian Community, I am currently working with Process HQ reports, and when exporting the data, the files are automatically downloaded in CSV format. I have two questions regarding this export: Some fields that are numeric are being exported as text format. Is there a way to ensure they are downloaded directly as numeric values instead of text? In some cases, exported numbers include a strange prefix character (for example: $~118.331.052.083.617,56). Is there a recommended configuration or workaround to prevent these characters from appearing? Any guidance or best practices would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your support. Regards, Monica Vela,

We are seeing a strange issue in which write to record is not working properly. If we check the process variable value, it is successfully updated, but when we look at the database, the latest data is not being updated, no expression error is generated, and this is an intermittent issue. As per this thread we updated to latest version https://community.appian.com/discussions/f/data/39426/data-fabric---write-to-child-records-via-relationship, still we see same issue. Anyone knows the reason?

Record Type details not showing after  click on View Record List

Hi FolksJust sharing the experience!When writing to child record via write record, there was no error on process model, but it was still not writing to DB. Then we realized the issue was because of two reason which we did not pay attention 1. We need to make sure the record object is updated o latest version means below pop should not be visible 2. On the model switch to latest version of smart service.

Can we pass a list of numbers to input parameter of SP? Is it possible. a!storedProcedureInput( name: "group_ids", value:local!groupids (It is a list of number) ), It's not working as input parameter is defined as INT on DB side but we are passing list of integers.

Hi everyone [emoticon:c4563cd7d5574777a71c318021cbbcc8], I have scenario where my data is stored in Map/Dictionary. Now this has to be stored in record.Each field to be mapped with the respective record field.Considering the volume, Is there a way to use the Field Id to map the value.Example: a!localvariables( local!list:{{columnName:"Name",recordFieldId"4567898765"}, {columnName:"Desc",recordFieldId"4567856894"},/* Now the data to be mapped */a!foreach(locaL!list,index(record,fv!item.recordFieldId,null)) )
