sites have urls like this one:https://<subdomain>.<domain>/suite/sites/<SiteName> subdomains:https://<subdomain>.<domain>/<PortalName> We want them to be resolve them with the SiteName as the subdomainhttps://<SiteporPortalName>.<domain> Is it possible somehow to create a redirect url on your side (appian cloud) so that specific sites/portal can be resolved with unique urls. I am aware that we would have to create a dns delegation for that but the problem is that we cannot create delegations with url paths (i.e. /suite/sites/<SiteName>) and we do not seem to have a make that redirection. 

I'm using the MS Word 2007 Doc from Template in that smart service, but when the document is uploaded, it still replaces a few value tags even though the replacement values are already present.

Hi everyone, I encountered an issue regarding saving process variable using a!startProcess -> onSuccess on version 25.4, the fv!processInfo.pv.subCategory was not saved back into local variable ri!checkStatusofChangingCategory. Here is the code: a!startProcess( processModel: cons!NFL_CONS_PROCESS_CHANGE_CASE_TYPE_CATEGORY, processParameters: { subCategory: ri!subCategory, newCategoryId: local!selectedNewCategory }, onSuccess: { ri!saveInto, a!save( ri!checkStatusofChangingCategory, append( ri!checkStatusofChangingCategory,fv!processInfo.pv.subCategory ) ), a!save( local!currentCategory, local!selectedNewCategory ), a!save(ri!subCategory, null), a!save(local!selectedNewCategory, null), } ) The initial value of ri!checkStatusofChangingCategory was null after onSucess, it became [null]. This code worked with version a!startProcess_24r3 ( it successfully saved pv.subCategory into ri!checkStatusofChangingCategory), i want to know the reason why, what am i missing? I'm look

Hi Appian Folks, After community version got upgraded to 26.6, I see process models are not opening at all. Is anyone facing the same issue? 504 Gateway Time-out

Hi Everyone, I have a requirement where a user clicks a notification, and before opening the Summary page, I need to mark the notification as Read. To achieve this, I created a Process Model Start Form that updates the notification status and then displays the same Summary UI. The issue is that the Summary UI contains an email section with a File Upload field. When the user clicks Send Email, I call: a!submitUploadedFiles( documents: local!attachments ) This works correctly when the Summary UI is opened from the Record Summary page, but when it is opened through the Process Start Form, I get the following error: a!submitUploadedFiles() cannot be evaluated in this environment I understand that a!submitUploadedFiles() is not supported in a Process Start Form. Has anyone implemented a similar requirement? What is the recommended approach complete it Would creating a separate interface or dialog just for file uploads be the recommended approach, or is there a better Appian design patte

I have a question regarding the subprocess status shown in the attached screenshot. The subprocesses are displaying the status as "Unattended" instead of "Completed". I have configured the subprocess node to "Run as whoever designed the process model" in the assignment settings. Could you please help me understand why the subprocesses are still showing as Unattended rather than Completed? I've attached the screenshot for reference.

I'm looking for a way to generate an Excel file from a template in Appian while ensuring that all existing formulas in the template are preserved. Has anyone implemented this or knows of an approach? Thanks in advance.

Environment: Appian Community Edition — Site "W1423AIS Acme IT"Data Source affected: W0380 Data Source (MariaDB)Description:I am experiencing errors indicating that multiple tables are missing from my "W0380" data source, which I did not delete or modify manually.Errors observed so far: On the "W0380AS Vehicle" record type: "The configured database table is invalid. The AS_VEHICLE table does not exist in the configured data source. Change the database table to continue." Key details: I log into this environment regularly; my last login before noticing this issue was about one week prior.I did not perform any manual deletions, renames, or schema changes on these tables.The issue appears to affect more than one table within the same data source (W0380), suggesting a possible environment-wide database issue rather than an isolated table problem. Request:Please investigate whether the underlying database for this Community Edition environment w

currently I have a subprocess that uses pp!initiator to get the user data to check few validation, and one sometimes the pp!initiator seems to not pick the user from the parent process and i think instead it picks the masteruser (i.e. ABC) which was used to publish the process model. It happens on random instances. Am i missing something.

Is pursuing a career as an Appian developer a wise choice?

the Zip Extractor plugin is behaving unexpectedly. On the first run, it works as expected and extracts the files into the folder. However, when I run it again with the same document ID, it fails. Has anyone encountered this before or have any suggestions on what might be causing it?

Hi everyone, We're planning to upgrade our production environment to Appian 26.6 and currently we are on 25.3 version, wanted to check with the community before proceeding. For those who have already upgraded to 26.6, have you encountered any significant issues, regressions, or unexpected behavior after the upgrade?   Our application is a fairly large enterprise solution with extensive use of Record Types, Process Models, Connected Systems, integrations, and custom plug-ins, so we're keen to understand if there are any unexpected issues faced due to upgrade.   Any feedback or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Hi, I have a button on my application's homepage/landing page designed to execute a specific task in the database. When clicked, it should trigger the appearance of a dynamic interface. This interface should smoothly transition into view, causing the landing page interface to fade away. For visualization consider below screenshot, imagine the "Create Interface" dialog overlaying the landing page interface, which fades into the background during the task interaction.

Hi, Im facing an issue in queryLogicalExpression where 'AND' operator is used and there are 3 query filters in it with applyWhen parameter is passed which is evaluated as false in all the 3 filters but still this expression got executed instead of ignoring it. Is the applyWhen parameter will work only for separate queryFilter and not for the filters added in logical expression? Could someone help me to understand the behaviour?Thanks

Hello team, I have a parent process model from which I am triggering child process instances asynchronously using MNI. The child process instances have been successfully triggered and have reached the end node. However, the parent process instance is still showing as Active in the Monitor tab since yesterday. Additionally, when I view the process instance and hover over each node, the Start Process node appears disabled, whereas the End Event node appears enabled. Could you please help me understand why the parent process instance is still in an active state despite the process reaching the end node? As I am triggering child instances through MNI, my understanding is that if I use a Terminate End Event in the parent process, it will also terminate the child process instances. Therefore, I do not think that approach will work for my scenario. Please correct me if my understanding is incorrect.

Hello everyone, In the recent update (version 26.1), we received a feature that allows us to create sync-enabled record types using a view as the data source. In our case, we have a view where we aggregate three fields (e.g., Name, Type, and ID). Since these fields are aggregated, each row is unique, and we have configured this combination as a unique key in the record type. Whenever a user updates information in the related tables, the view reflects the latest data. However, since we are using sync-enabled records, the updated data is not immediately available in the record. To handle this, we added a Sync Smart Service at the end of the process. But whenever a new record is created or updated with Name, Type, and ID, the smart service fails with the below error. Since the aggregation ensures there are no duplicate values for this column, and even in the view we see only a single row for each combination, I need guidance on how to handle or resolve this error.

Hi All, Our users have been experiencing this intermittent issue quite frequently. The problem occurs randomly while users are actively working on a task or viewing a summary screen, and there doesn't appear to be any consistent pattern or specific steps to reproduce it. As this is occurring in the production environment and we do not have direct access, we have been unable to capture a network HAR file for further analysis and not able to reproduce in lower environments. Has anyone encountered a similar issue before? Could this be related to the browser (we are using Microsoft Edge), a network-related problem, or something else? Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
