On the Landing Page, I have a Navigation menu on the left and Record List on the right, When I click on the Loan Id hyperlink on one of the Record, it takes me to the Summary Page for that record clicked. Issue I am having is, the Summary page is taking up full page and overwriting the Navigation pane on the left hand. Please see 2 screenshots I have attached. How do I get the Summary page to be restricted to the right side of the Interface section and not go over the Navigation pane on the left?

The Output is True ,why

We currently support a site with a static image on entry for our internal users and customers. I was wondering if it's possible to have a video loop play in the background on entry navigation in Appian before progressing into the applications? As an example of a website that depicts a real pop in what the business offers: Kirby Corp has a great video of how the business moves chemical pressurized, dry bulk, or heavy product while still allowing the users to interact with the interface.

Hi, I have a process model where a rule is processed in a script task running parallel to a user input task. At the second AND gate, there are two possible scenarios: First API Call Path Reaches the AND Gate First: The API path reaches the AND gate before the user submits the task. This scenario works as expected, triggering the next chained User Input Task (UIT) in the process after the submission of first UIT. User Submits the Task First: The user submits the task before the API path reaches the AND gate. In this case, the next UIT is not triggered as expected. anyone knows what's the reason for this to happen ?note : the script task is not an actual API call but just an expression rule with some dummy dataThanks

Hi All,I have few records and out of those if i am trying to open any sync enabled records it's taking more than 30 mins ,not only opening if i am trying to sync these records it's taking forever.At the same time if i am trying to create or update any value for these synched records using "Write Records" in process model it's taking minimum of 15 mins, in some cases it's throwing "system encountered an error" , but when I checked in the database the write happened quickly (<1 min). We are using Oracle Database.We are not quite sure why this is happening,any leads /ideas? Thanks in Advance.

I have an expression rule will return 2 types of record type - Case - Error depends on if there is any error occur during the expression rule process so when I get the result from the expression rule, I do need to know what type is the returned value, how can I achieve that? I tried to use typeof(), but it does not work. I am wondering if I need to use type!, but I do not know how to write a valid reference using type!

Hello everyone, I’m experiencing an issue after changing the structure of a record in our development environment. Since we don’t have direct access to the database where the records are stored, we had to send the scripts to the client’s database admin to execute and reflect the changes in test environment. Now, the fields are the same in both the DEV and TEST environments. However, at first, the record in TEST failed to synchronize, showing an error related to the record. After manually re-syncing, the synchronization succeeded. The specific error message is in the execution of a process model, in the Write Records node: Unable to insert to source because the sequence PARTICIPACIONES_SQ is not valid, does not exist, or is not accessible. The Write Records node is actually trying to save the "Relacion Socio" record, which has a one-to-many relationship with "Participaciones" (the record that also underwent structural changes and is now synchroniz

I've got a requirement that needs a expandable readonly grid, I saw Expand/Collapse Rows in a Tree Grid - Appian 24.2 in other post but this is a gridLayout which seems can't be paged But I want the grid to be paged and expandable, the collapsed rows should be just same to the main row that can be selected and has recordactions in every row How can I implement this

Hi, I created Record type but, I need to create record fields manually so for that Create From Scratch option should be enabled but I don't see such option here so could you please help me to resolve this query? FYI

  I have an Interface with Cancel and Submit button. This interface also has Rule Inputs defined for Cancel and Submit. I also had defined a process model for this Interface. I have kept the process model screenshot as well to this. When I am testing the Process Model, program always goes to "Import Excel to Database node", this happens even when I hit Cancel button the Interface. I feel the button clicks are not sending/capturing the correct values onto process model. Can you please let me what am I doing wrong here?

Record sync is failing due to this error : Unmapped record fields. 1 record field is not mapped to a source field. Update that field before saving the record type. I checked the correspoding table all the fields are in record type are properly mapped in data model but still the error is not resolved, is there anyway to fix this issue Thanks in advance

Hello there! Here is my use-case: I have a large record type (80'000 rows), which users want to be able to filter and export to Excel. It works pretty good, but my platform admin is kind of obsessed by the health of the platform. He is afraid that many user export the whole set of data at the same time, putting the server CPU into heavy load. So it is required to limit the number of records a user can export. Did anyone ever have something similar to do? I know the limit is set to 100'000, but can we decrease the same in some Appian administration setting? I see no property in the gridField to do so, e.g. to set "showExportButton" to false if the size of the dataset exceeds a given value. Is there any? I think it would be possible to obtain something with something like a readOnlyGrid or so, but I would like to avoid it for the pain of handling filters (and pagination?). Please help!

My project exists as three environments hosted on three separate URLs with three separate app names (dev, test and production respectively).  I want to make changes to my interfaces that only render in certain environments (mainly dev) so that they don't interfere with the client's UI experience.  I was wondering if there was some sort of metadata or variable that I could use to identify them for conditional logic.  I know pp! variables do something similar for processes.  Also, using string fragments from the unique parts of the URLs might work too, but I wasn't sure what methods are the current gold standard.

I am trying to build a custom export to excel icon which should download all the filtered records to excel. I can see a smart service i.e. write data store entity to excel but that is not useful in my case since i am using record type not cdt, hence no datastore exist in my case. Please let me know do we have any possibility to achieve this or not? I think just like data store entity there should be some feature related to record type as well but i cannot see that plugin.

I have a scenario where I need to extract the read-only grid data into excel. For example, I have a read-only grid with 5 columns. For the grid data, I have applied the "multiple drop down" field for the 3 columns and I'm filtering the data. Say, I have 1000 data in my read-only grid, out of which I have now filtered only 500 row data. Now my grid displays 500 data. How to extract these 500 row data alone into excel. I don't use record type, (so ruling out the default export to excel option available in record type). I want the dynamically filtered 500 rows into an excel. Please suggest how I can achieve this? Thanks in advance!

Hi, We are configuring SAML login in our client cloud environment and we have seen in the documentation that Appian allows encryption for the SAML assertion "Appian supports signed, encrypted SAML assertions up to the AES-256 standard" but the information in the documentation is very limited.The question we have is if we configure encryption with AES-256 in the IDP (Azure AD), how is the decryption key stored in Appian? Do we have to provide the key to Appian to store it internally or register it in the credential store? Thanks in advance
