"I'm encountering an issue with updating an array in costAdjustments. The current code is setting the LengthOfMonth field to 6 for all items in the array, but I only want to update specific entries." a!save( local!newEstimates2, local!newEstimates2: a!forEach( items: local!newEstimates, expression: a!update( fv!item, "costAdjustments", a!forEach( items: fv!item.costAdjustments, expression: a!update(fv!item, "LengthOfMonth", 6) ) ) ) ) This isn't exactly what I need. What I want to do is loop through newEstimates and pull data from local!uniqueContractPeriods, which contains three rows of data with the fields: period, periodType, startDate, endDate, noOfMonths, and noOfDays. When the contractPeriodNum in costAdjustments within newEstimates matches the period in uniqueContractPeriods, I want to update the LengthOfMonth in newEstimates with the value of noOfMonths from uniqueContractPeriods. Below is the code I&#3

Hi! When I use an integration in a process model, I get the following error:The integration execution time exceeded the configured timeout.However, the service I invoke through the integration works fine, only the Appian integration gets the error even if it worked as expected. How can I fix this? Is there a way to give it more time so it doesn't get error by timeout?

Hi Appian Developers (and Community of course), I hope that somebody from the Apprian Dev Team could answer / provide info. I'm using the Styled Text Editor Component component (a!styledTextEditorField) to display content stored as HTML (display only, no edit required). I'm wondering that is the exact maximum allowable value for the Size limit parameter?  When I set 100K, it prompts "You reached the maximum character limit. Remove characters to continue." (it is an email conversation stored as html and it is expected to be large in size). When I reduce it to 99K (set value for Size limit parameter to 99K), the error is gone. Obviously, it lays somewhere between 99K and 100K but I would like to know what is the maximum allowed, to be able to display as much as possible of the text. Or does it maybe depend on the encoding - single-byte/multi-byte? However, the documentation states "... The parameter value is about equal to the number of charac

I have an interface with a link(Open URL ex. https://) that opens a new tab/window.

Any guidance or code examples would be appreciated.

Hi, we are trying to configure SAML authentication in our client's cloud enviroment. To get the .pem metadata file from the IPD they request the following urls: Identifier (Entity ID): mysite.appiancloud.com Reply URL (Assertion Consumer Service URL): mysite.appiancloud.com/.../AssertionConsumer Does anyone knows if we can just send them this urls with our domain or if we need to configure something in the admin console before? Thanks in advance.

I developed a process model with a form that collects employee details. If the "submit" button is clicked, it moves to a user input task with "Approve" button. Upon pressing this, the details are updated in the database. The issue is that when I run the process model in debug mode, it works perfectly, but when I run it through the site action button, the first page is displayed but doesn’t proceed to the user input task. Instead, it stayed on that page. Please provide a solution.

I’m using a webContentField in Appian to embed a webpage, but it doesn’t allow me to access the device camera. Is there a workaround or a different component I should be using to enable camera access within the Appian interface?

Hi all, I am Importing an excel file to database. It has two tables Deals and Loans. Deals to Loans have one to many relationship and deal id should be stored in loans table for the related loans. When I am uploading the file I am first storing the excel data in Datastore. And from data store I am saving the related data in the tables. while saving the loans the related deal Id is not storing properly. Loans data is being saved from datastore itself. We are applying index for deals table and then storing the related deal ID in loans. For example I have 10 deals of data in excel the first deal has one loan and the second deal has 3 loans and the third deal has one loan. For the first loan the dealId storing is 1 and for the next 3 loans the deal id is storing as 2 but for the 5th loan which belongs to 3rd deal the deal Id is storing as 5 instead of 3 in loans table.

I do have a process model with start form. All my buttons are set to "Submit: true" but for some reasons not always buttons not redirect user back to record view. I do have enable chaining between all the nodes.  None of the sub process is run as async process. Enable chaining is also enabled between all nodes in sub processes. I'm using Appian version 20.1

Hi All , Two days ago, one of our DEV environment went down. Upon checking the server status, we found that all services were stopped. We restarted the server, and it's been working fine since then. However, I'm keen to understand the root cause of the issue. I checked the Tomcat logs but couldn't find any relevant information. Could you please suggest how I can identify the cause of this? which log should i see ? Thanks in Advance

I have a requirement where I have a wizard form with 2 steps. In first step, I need to fill in some mandatory data fields and when I click on next to move to 2nd step, then on the basis of the data filled in for those mandatory fields in step 1, a dynamic email template is generated which user can freely edit.  The problem I'm facing here is because generated dynamic email template is displayed in an editable paragraph field and formed on the basis of data in mandatory fields. Now, user can also edit the words that came directly from mandatory fields in the email body or subject. This can cause data inconsistency issues, data which is saved for mandatory fields in DB and data sent in email. What can be best solution for this problem from UI design perspective - I thought of validations but it seems next to impossible to validate the data entered in free paragraph field with what is entered in previous step and then I thought of making the mandatory fields data as readonly

How Can I fetch the List of value as a text string from the given List

Hi all, I have a requirement of importing the excel file to database. When the user upload an excel file in import it should create new data in 3 different tables.

So when the user upload a file it should update deals table, loans table an other table which contains of amount data of the deal. Thank you.
