I’m currently exploring the benefits of the Appian Instructor-Led Course and wanted to get some insights from those who have participated in it. Specifically, I’m curious about the following:  Does the course provide access to an upgraded instance similar to a real-world production-like environment, or is it limited to the Community Edition for practice exercises? Benefits over the online free course provided other than personalized training

Hi Everyone, I have a use case where I need to get the date difference between two dates ; but using the calender available in Appian. Due to some performace issues, all date differences I am doing in stored procedure and calling the same from Appian to get the value. But If I have to consider Appian calender, how to pass to the stored proc, so it will provide me the correct date difference considering the calender. Regards, Ghanashyam

In the Pricing Model of Appian Software, it mentions - This represents the entitlement per application for Standard User, Advanced User, and Premium User. For Platform - Standard User, Platform - Advanced User, and Platform - Premium User, this represents the total entitlement across all applications. What exactly is the difference between a "Platform User" and an "Application User" ? 

Hi I have a table in my appian/Jdbc database and I am using write to Dse smart service to persist data into that table. Is there any log file in the system logs which tells me what data is written to what table and the timestamps ? Thanks

Lets say I have an Interface with 2 Dropdowns. Lets call them Dropdown1 and Dropdown2. Both have Values Yes and No. If User selects Dropdown1 with Value Yes, then Dropdown2 should automatically be set to No and it should be greyed out or disabled so that User cannot change it to Yes. Please advise how we can accomplish this. Regards, Mahesh

Hi all, We have a connected system with OAuth 2.0 Client Credential Grant. From the connected system we can Authorize with no error. Now, the token we get is valid for 24 hours. The problem is, after 24 hours, the integration calls fail with Authorization error. And when I go to Connected System and click on Authorize and run the integration again, it works perfectly. Does anyone know why this may be happening? I checked and the security of the integration and connected system is set properly. Thanks!

HI All, Example -- I am forty-five years old. from above text i need to get 45 in integer form. How to achieve this? Thanks, Ganesh. 

I am currently reviewing the Appian pricing structure and plans, and I’m a bit confused about the difference between "Platform User" and "Application User". Could someone please clarify the difference between these two types of users in terms of access and entitlements?

I have a Parent Summary interface that I want to add a record action button to that creates an entry in a child table. Adding the button is easy enough, however adding that button alone doesn't connect the Parent to the child when using the button. So what steps am I missing to make that connection?

Hi Team, I have to show KPIs information in Dashboard based on a specific user logged in and for a specific status. For example, For user1 when he/she logged in, he wants to see how many active/completed cases showing as KPIs Dashboard. I don't want to handle that in the interface, because that will take a considerable amount of time and hit the performance. Instead, I want to store that info somewhere for example in custom record field; but again, I am not sure that also feasible. FYI: assignee info and status are part of the case table not in any related record. Any other suggestions? Regards, Ghanashyam

Hi. I was trying to upload a file to Box from Appian, but the following error occurred, so I am posting this. I'm getting a Media Type error, but I'm not sure if the Request Body is written incorrectly or if I'm not connecting to Box's upload API. If anyone knows please let me know. Details below.・Integration Object ・Box account Free version for individuals   I'm guessing that the upload API cannot be executed with the free version of Box, so if you know anything about that, please let me know.   We apologize for the inconvenience, but please.

There is a requirement to trigger a scheduler at 2 PM , 10 PM and 6 AM. When scheduler will trigger, it will invoke an API by passing the last execution time to fetch set of data between last execution time to current time. Say for an example, if scheduler runs at 2 PM, then it will pass 6AM as parameter to the API so API can return data between  6AM to current time (i.e. 2PM )interval. any suggestion how to implement this following the OOB configuration? TIA

I want to implement a user-defined feature that allows specific fields to be displayed and the order to be adjusted. For example, I currently have 5 columns(column 1-5) in readonly grid, and the user can present 3 of them as needed and can adjust the order, e.g. display [column 1, column 5, column 3]. Is there any way to implement this feature? Can you give me some advice?

Has anyone gotten the following error (or similar) for the systemlogsrecordtypesource function? It's for the the Log Reader plugin. Expression evaluation error at function 'systemlogsrecordtypesource' [line 7]: The passed parameter(s) are of the wrong type. Received the type com.appiancorp.common.xml.JaxbConversionException: JAXB failure trying to convert typed value TypedValue[it=1474,v={TypedValue[it=1478,v=<null>],TypedValue[it=1154,v=<null>],{1,20,<null>}}] to java class com.appiancorp.common.query.Query. It's a simple few lines of code: systemlogsrecordtypesource( a!query( pagingInfo: a!pagingInfo(startIndex: 1, batchSize: 20) ) ) Strangely, I cannot replicate this across environments. I've confirmed the environments are on the same version of Appian, so I am unsure what to check for next.

Hi Team,  The api call is working fine in post man but it is failing in appian with below error, there is no issue at the source side as well any suggestion why appian is throwing the below error [title=Connection timed out, message=The integration execution time exceeded the configured timeout, detail=No details available] Thanks,

Hello, I am running into a "Requesting File" error on all robotic tasks. The following is the trace log for one of them (with altered client information) but the same error is occurring for all robotic tasks: [INFO] 2024-11-14 22:57:38 - - Robotic task 'updateClient' (62ced40be4b01228753f64b2), execution #3674, technology JAVA, start method API, log level TRACE, testing mode is OFF, external workflow is OFF [INFO] 2024-11-14 22:57:38 - - Robotic task will run with following parameters: [INFO] 2024-11-14 22:57:38 - - Parameter 'client', value '{"#t":5266,"#v":{"Id":4,"firstName":"C","middleName":"","lastName":"H","ssn":"4","medicaidId":"K","dateOfBirth":"1900-01-01","specialInstructions":"This client was created in APP.

We work with several clients. Some want their environments in spanish or portuguese, so most of our envs are in english for our dev team and the client's requested language.A LOT of time is spent with naming our process nodes twice: once in english when we develop, and the other in whatever other lenguage the client wants. The only reason we do this is because Appian won't let us deploy packages if even one node in a process does not have the other language node name.This really hinders the devexp for something no one will see. Is there any configuration to allow for English to be a fallback language for the process? Lets say the process has no "Spanish (MX)" names attached to the nodes. In that case, appian would automatically fall back to whatever other name the developer added to the node (in my case "English") 

Hi Community,   I am working on a POC where a third-party system interacts with my Appian Web API. The setup involves the following: 1. The third-party system is configured to call my API endpoint: https ://appianCloud.com/suite/webapi/endpoint1 for a GET operation to retrieve data using query parameters. 2. In subsequent calls, the system appends /action or /response to the same endpoint URL and performs a POST operation to modify the data for the same record.   Given this requirement, I would like to know: • Is it possible to handle this type of scenario within a single Appian Web API object? • If not, are there any known workarounds or best practices to manage such dynamic operation variations?   Looking forward to your insights. Thank you in advance!

We got the above error from production. We are not able to replicate the error in lower environment. Can anyone tell what is the root cause of this issue?

Hi, I have data in record type.  I need to implement search field to get result from record type. By using a!queryRecordType it's matching exact content. For example: If we search " How to create record type ". we will get related data like below It is possible to implement similar functionality in Appian
