I am getting some entries in Health Check report for USRX-0041: "# of slow process tasks". There is no information link about this specific issue to https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/24.4/understanding-the-health-check-report.html I could see that  all our HIGH risk entries are process tasks with interfaces. Does anyone know how to properly solve slow process tasks? It's related to the average time spent loading/rendering the interfaces? I can see that some of those interfaces are not present on the "# of slow interfaces" item.

Hi Expert, Can we use a POST integration API which actually queries data from a third party system to configure as a Sync Record Data Source, if yes  then how ?I have created an expression to get the data using the integration object which is working fine in the Expression rule while throwing error on using the same in Record Type. Thanks, Gaurav Singh

Hello Community, Following situation: handover didn't go smoothly, so the password for the main Appian Oracle user which holds all tables was lost. The password was changed, and somehow the Data Source for the old configuration was gone in the Admin panel. Not sure how that happened, but I added it on all environments with the correct connection strings again. However, the Data Stores had to be configured anew. This luckily was no problem on Prod, but I am now facing an issue on Dev with a few distinct ones. When I select the Data Source and try to verify, I get this message: "An error occurred while attempting to verify the data store: Type definitions could not be found in the Appian data source for the following type ids: 5504 (APNX-1-4047-008)" So I tried checking the CDTs that are connected to it, and for each one I try I get this error: "HTTP Code: 500 APNX-1-4198-000 Error Evaluating UI Expression Expression evaluation error [evaluation ID = HCBTYGS5

Hello,  How can I download a document that is stored in Appian from an external system?Currently, I am document(documentId, "url") to get the document's URL, then storing that URL to a table. My external system is grabbing that URL and attempting to CURL the url to download the file. An HTML document requesting the user to sign in is returned, so I am assuming that I must authenticate to Appian. Is there any documentation that can be pointed out on this process? I could not find anything in the docs.  Thank you

We have 3 records in our application say record A, record B and record C. Record A is having one to many relation with record B where record B is having one to many relation with record C. Record A is having generic details, record B is having section details which can be multiple and record C is having one editable grid having multiple entries which is present in the above section. We are facing issue while displaying and saving the value into the rule input since we are not able to use [fv!index] for record variables. We are using only one rule input of record type A. How to make sure to show the values properly and save them properly?? This is just a mock UI i created for explaining the issue. Add member will add one more row in developer details grid. Add Team will repeat the whole section again.

Hi All, I am having a specific situation where I need your feedback and suggestions. There is a Record A pointing to Table A and Record A is having relationship with Record B (Table B). For some reasons I have created Record B1 pointing to same Table B and added the relationship in Record A. What could be the issue / performance issue with this type of relationship? Note: This is only one relationship I have explained in above example,  in actual we have more then 10 such relationships.

I have requirement to deactivate task with following requirements: 1. A list of Task is displayed and each task has Deactivate icon next to it 2. Clicking on Deactivate icon, check if task is used as precedent for other task 3.

Hi, Any replacement for isusermemberofallgroups function??as the people plugin doesnot contain this function for new version.

I am new to the Appian platform and am currently exploring the Appian Portals. I have created a portal, but I am unable to publish it as I am being prompted to add a service account. However, I don't have access to create one. To create a service account, I believe I need access to the Administration Console, but I cannot see it in the menu. Is this limitation due to the fact that I am using the Community Edition? Does the Community Edition not provide access to the Administration Console?

Hi Experts, I'm getting following error while deploying the record type object to higher environments : "Record type Test Expedited Order cannot be synced because its record fields do not match the fields in the source. (APNX-2-4195-003)" I'm using two sync enabled records "Test Expedited Order" and "Test Authorized Agency" with many to one relationship between these two records where mapping is as shown below.As of now I have to manually update the mapping of the record type post deployment so as to make it working. And after updating the mapping and saving it there is no difference in the version of record. In above image the highlighted once are the version created due to deployment where as the latest one and the version 2 are after manually updating the mapping. Is this a known issue with the records type or is there a way possible to get this fixed. ?

Hi Team, An integration object is created with OAuth 2.0 authentication, every time the connected system is authenticated, then the integration works for 1hour and after that the integration fails. Please let me know if anyone faced similar issue and how to resolve this.

I am currently using Smart Service "Import Excel to Database".  The process works fine if I upload an Excel file with correct column headers and data values. In the excel file I purposefully changed the data values like changing a date value to a text value XYZ, changing Text value to a date value. When I upload this modified excel file: 1. The process does not error out. Process Model is showing everything as success. 2. The incorrect data did not get inserted. But my question is, how do I catch such data errors? I thought the Smart Service "Import Excel to Database" is going give some information on the errors. Please advise this.  In the real world we will not have perfect data all the time. Hence trying to figure this out. Regards, Mahesh

Hi, I'm trying to extract data through AI skill object with Document Extraction configuration. I can extract the table data if the table is in one page.In some documents, the grid/table data runs for multiple page. In that case, through the reconcile task I can select a table either in first page or in second page, but I cannot select the table data that runs on both pages.In the below attached pdf, I need to extract 22 items on the grid, but unfortunately in the Reconcile Task I can select the table data either from Page one or Page 2. Need help on how to retrieve all data that runs across multiple pages.[View:/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/15/JEM_2D00_0063.pdf:320:240]
