Hi Everybody, Has anyone had success implementing data synced record types on database tables that use GUID unique identifier as database fields? In one of our example tables the primary key uses unique identifier. I can configure the data synced record type and perform full sync with the record. But when I use the Write Record smart service I get the following error. Unable to write to the source due to system error.Error Details: The generated key type is not supported. Unable to cast [null] to [java.lang.Number]. Workarounds involve using the Query Database smart service to execute SQL Statement for inserting then running the Sync Records service. But I feel like we are losing value having to resort to Query Database smart service. Asking the community if there were any success stories using unique identifier data type with their data sync record types. Thanks In Advance

I want to use record type User FIlter. However when I use the filter has around 50 options for the labels and options even if the actual grid only 2 or 3 options. Is there anyway to to limit the option of Label and Values according to Record Value. a!recordFilterList( name: "Assignee", allowMultipleSelections: true, options: a!localVariables( local!assignees:a!queryRecordType( recordType: 'recordType!{4390cf3b-8f80-4bfd-adfa-b06cb2562f7d}Job Corps Response', fields: { a!aggregationFields( groupings: a!grouping( field: 'recordType!{4390cf3b-8f80-4bfd-adfa-b06cb2562f7d}Job Corps Response.fields.{assignee}assignee', alias: "assignee" ) ) }, pagingInfo: a!pagingInfo(startIndex: 1, batchSize: 500) ).data, local!assigneesList:property(local!assignees,"assignee",null), a!forEach( items: local!assigneesList, expression: a!recordFilterListOption( id: fv!index, name: fv!item, filter: a!queryFilter( field: 'recordType!{4390cf3b-8f80-4bfd-adfa-b06c

When the Appian system is embeded to another system, we use the SAML to do the login function. When the user logout, and change another user to login the system, Appian still use the old session, and it can not be logout. So how can I logout the Appian system. I found a way to resolve this issue https://community.appian.com/support/w/kb/370/kb-1153-saml-authentication-faq,  I have noticed that logging out of my IdP does not end my session in Appian. How can I configure this to end my session in Appian too?   When logging out of the IdP, it is necessary for the IdP to then send a valid logout request to Appian. Once Appian receives a valid logout request from the IdP, Appian will terminate the user's session. In this way how do I send a valid logout request to Appian?

so as you can see in the grid below. There is only two items on the entire grid.  But look at the options for the GRID Filter. There are over 50   The reason that there is more than 50 items is because is getting the entire set of Assignees on the entire Record. However this an specific item from the record, where there is only 2 items on this record, There is no need to display all those other options on the Record Type User Filter. Is there a way to do this? Or am I obligated to create a Costume Filter?

In Appian we can use a records fields by square bracket notation or index or dot notation. what to use where ,what is the best practices , i heard indexing is the best.in some places its not working ,i don't have clear understating  

We have a requirement to archive all versions of a document in a separate CMS.  We have an integration that can upload a document, but it only works on the latest version of a document. We are not able to upload previous versions.  I was planning to use a plugin to "unpack" documents to a temporary folder where each version is a new document.  Is anyone aware of an existing, cloud-approved plugin that can handle this?  Are there any other integration or plugin alternatives that would meet this requirement?

for explaining sake im using this examples  Let's say local!role : index( local!lookupDetails, wherecontains( cons!IHL_TXT_R_ALL_CATEGORIES[1], index( local!lookupDetails,"role" null ) ) ) i need to use one values from the record in my UI many places for that can i  hold it in one local and pass wherever needed. or can i use it directly wherever  i needed if so i need to call index,whereconains in many places right dont it consume memory  and it will make the code repetitive lines get increasewhat is the best practice. 

While Im using the grid field to display the record data and applying filters to it, I couldnt get any data. The grid is displayed as empty. Please find the screen shot of my code. I have used 2 queryFilters inside the filters section of gridField. Can we use two filters? I have the scenario to dropdown and dynamically filter more than 2 columns from the record. Also I get the warnings from line 99 for rest of the gridField parameters.

Sync records smart service is failing with error 'New data cannot be written while the record type is unavailable.'Note: I'm a admin for the particular record for which it is failing

We are using Appian connected claims in our project and also we need to run test cases using cucumber for Appian which is default Appian tool ,is that possible to run test cases on cucumber?

I could not find any Appian documentation that describes how to add dynamic variables to Integrations/Web APIs for use with a!urlForRecord() and I was wondering if anyone had any guides or advice I would greatly appreciate it!

I'm using a web API form Appian to insert documents from a Python project. While some documents are uploaded successfully, others return a "413 Payload Too Large" error. I’ve already set the maximum request size to 1 GB in the Tomcat server configuration, but documents over 70 MB are still being rejected with the same error. How can I increase the maximum request size for the web API to allow larger uploads?

I've been hired on as a developer for a preexisting app with a large codebase.  Some of the developers who have created the original interfaces have left the project and it's difficult to navigate the app with sample data because it interferes with data that the team is using. Does anyone have any tips on how to find relevant objects and otherwise navigate the app via code.  Granted, tips on how to navigate as a user and then find the objects in the codebase would also be helpful.

Hello, I'm looking to see if there is an Appian out of the box method to do the following: I have a form for users to enter info and submit, and they have the option to submit information once, or submit info and stay on the form, basically just like the create & add another user functionality. I want the users to see a temporary confirmation message after they click on submit and stay on form, so that they know the information they entered was submitted. Like this, but I want the text to show something customizable, and I want the user to remain back on the form without needing to click on any additional buttons. I've seen there is the bannerMessage field on a!startProcessLink, but I'm having difficulties getting the message to show up with customizable text. I do know there are custom code to get cards to automatically show up and go away, but I'm wondering if there's any oob feature. Thanks!

Hello, I'm using a Styled Text Editor input so users can enter bulleted lists. I'd like to display the bulleted list in a summary view. I've tried combinations of Rich Text Display, Rich Text Bulleted List, and striphtml. I can get one bullet point above the list or a list without bullet points easily. The data is displayed in a bulleted list, in the email sent from the process model, perfectly.  How can I display the collected information in a summary view with the bullet points like the user entered? Thank you!

Is there a way to identify a module interface that renders from within another interface's cardLayout?  The module interface I want to modify is difficult to identify because it is nested within another interface and seems to be obscured from identification when I use the Show Objects feature. It is one of two module interfaces that are passed as an array into a Rule Input that is then passed into a cardLayout's contents property. Attempting to display the module interfaces in a textField only shows the raw SAIL code with apparently no identifying information like the module interface's object name.  I am unsure how navigation to the parent interface is performed (the user finds it by clicking a link and it replaces all the others on the page) so I can't identify all of its Rule Inputs, but I know the name of the module interface's parent interface.  Is it possible to find something to identify the module interface in its

I'm working in an environment that has a large number of folders (300k+) containing a variety of documents. The environment is getting on the full side so I would like to find which folders have large amounts of data. Is there some way to sort or search for folders based on data size so I don't have to open each one individually?
