We have a sent functionality having "Appian Group" in the To field. Group have users and it is working fine in our DEV and SIT environment.But the problem is, not working and getting this error in UAT and PROD environment alone. I gone through some existing threads and they suggested to use toemailrecipient() function. We didn't use, but it is working good in DEV and SIT. So, please suggest what could be teh problem with higher environments. Problem:  An error occurred in executing an Activity Class. Details:  No valid recipients resolved Recommended Action:  Examine the activity class to correct the error and then resume. Priority of this problem: High Priority

I have a record with shops, and then also a record with products. I assign a Shop ID to each product, depending on which shop sells this product. So for example, the product with ID 47, has a value 20 in the ID Shop Column, because the shop with ID 20 has this product. Then I have an Interface with a report that you acces from each shop. If I acces to the shop with ID 20, I want the report to be filtred in a way that it only shows products with Shop ID 20. My interface, my query and my filter works correctly when I test it with an integer in the value: But when I try to get this value from my rule input which is a data type, it doesn't work, and shows this error: Could not display interface. Please check definition and inputs. Interface Definition: Expression evaluation error at function a!gridField [line 4]: Expression evaluation error at function a!queryLogicalExpression [line 33]: The a!queryFilter function has an invalid value for the "value" parameter. When the val

Hello Everyone, We have a requirement to unzip/extract a .gz file, any ideas on how can this be achieved. Thanks

We have a third party system which sends a notification to one of our endpoints in Appian at random times and wont wait for any response from us. Our concern is that we will miss some of these notifications if Appian is down for an upgrade / maintenance as all nodes will become unavailable even if we are on HA config and there is no queueing OOB for Appian to capture these API calls (which does make sense as APIs typically needs to send a response back when ever called) I cant go to the third party system to create a queueing system and retry them after some time once Appian is available. I am looking for some ideas to handle this in Appian.

Hello Experts, Kindly suggest if HTML tags like <tr> <td> etc can be used in Appian UIs or Record type Objects for displaying the data in form of Grid. Thank, Gaurav Singh

Hi, Can we have startProcessLink when writing expressions for record title in header 

I have been working on improving the performance of my interface, and I came across some performance results that I don't understand. I have a local variable (local!initialData) that calls an expression rule. I have a second local variable (local!dataCapture) that is just a copy of local!initialData. Looking in the performance tab of the interface, both of these local variables take the exact same amount of time to evaluate (+/- 1ms). However, I would expect local!initialData to take longer than local!dataCapture since local!dataCapture is just copying the data from local!initialData, not running the expression rule. Can anyone explain this to me? Is this to be expected, or am I doing something wrong to cause this to happen? I have attached an image of the performance numbers for these two local variables and have included the definitions of both below. Thanks in advance! local!initialData: a!forEach( local!orderLineData, rule!SSTH_initialData( orderLineData: local!or

Hello team, We have configured a white list in customer environments and some users are receiving error 403 - forbbiden while trying to access appian. In my opinion, I believe that these users are not in the IP range configured in the white list. Knowing this, I would like to identify in the logs the IPs of these users who are having access denied when they try to enter the environment link to compare with the white list that we configured, and if this IP is not there, report this information to the client. Is there any way I can view this? Where? Thanks

Hi community, How we can database table for application in appian version 24.3 as previously we get the cloud database .Now there is no cloud database please help us on this

Hello, I have an ER that build a mail body with data needed. I wrap the data with HTML table tags to make it look nice (well indented) in mailboxes. I also want to display that data on an Appian interface for my users to preview what will be sent on the email. I tried to use stripHtml() but this is not working fine because it removes HTML table tags and so the content is not indented and looks like a mess. Is their any alternative solution to solve this issue and display my email body nicely in Appian interface ? Thanks, Jeremy.

this is the query how can i write a expression rule for this and the result will be like below

Hi All, Anyone familiar with this type of issue when trying to import a package?

I have 2 record types, totally Sync, with a relationship One Event to Many Instructions, properly related, as I have a custom record field in Event about a sumatory of an Instructions field which is correctly working... But then, when I query the Events,I retrieve nothing using: local!instructions: local!events[recordType!Event.relationships.instruction]. So I've tried to fill the relatedRecordData field in the query of events but it keeps retrieving nothing, null data. local!events: a!queryRecordType(... relatedRecordData: a!relatedRecordData( relationship: recordType!Event.relationships.instruction ), ... ), local!instructions: local!events[recordType!Event.relationships.instruction.idInstruction], How can this be? Maybe Security, how? Is it just not the proper way to retrieve its data?Thanks in advance

Getting expression error - " User does not have sufficient privileges to perform requested action" I have one group when we add a user to that group getting the above error.and the same user when we add in another group not getting the error. and this error only occurs in higher environments, the same functionality works fine in lower environments. Checked group security, and properties and it's the same as the lower environment.

We have recently implemented Syslog streaming on our Appian platform.  The log file is reporting a TLS handshake failure. We've been able to successfully use Curl (sample command below) to connect to the syslog server.   We've done an end-to-end packet capture while doing this curl and can't see any evidence of a TLS handshake error.  The certificate we use is a wildcard certificate (i.e. *.oir.qld.gov.au), but Appian support have confirmed this is acceptable.  Examining the packet capture, we can see both a client and server hello, and both are successful.  Because of this, I suspect the error lies within the rsyslog setup on my syslog server.  Sample Curl Command that reports a successful connection   curl -ilv OIRPSENTINEL01.oir.qld.gov.au:6514 Setup of rsyslog.conf on our Syslog server --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- # rsys

Since any BPM tool like Appian follows BPMN Standards, I wonder why we don't have the error event in Appian process models. If I want to handle errors or exceptions in process models, how can I do it..?? for example : I have a write to data store entity smart service in my process model and for some reason like data length exceeds, the activity got failed, now in this situation, I want to add a exception flow which will create a user task to correct the entered data or lets say in my process model, I have an activity which is not so important, but if it fails to execute I don't want my process model to be paused, I want it to continue further ( we can do this in Appian by making the acitivity as subprocess, but is there any other way to avoid the subprocess)

Hi Appian Community, I have been trying to create a short POC in Appian RPA Community edition but it has been a struggle. After resolving multiple issues, i'm now stuck at one issue from where i cant proceed . I'm unable to perform any debugging task as it takes a lifetime to connect to a robot. Also have been facing continuous issues with task recorder while launching any web browser , the success percentage is 1% as of now. I have checked the following already -  1.Agent is installed correctly and showing OK as can be seen in attached screenshot  2. Installed the web driver at appropriate location 3. Web driver installed is of correct version

Im creating quite a bit of users in the Appian Environment one by one in the Admin Console. What is the best way to "Import" a batch of several users in Appian one time, rather than building each individual one by one? I see an Import and Export button on top of the Admin Console. but I am not sure if that can be used or what the alternative solution would be for this.  Thanks in Advance
